What happened during the exhibition?
We have previously organized this event 3 times in Geneva, and welcomed around 1000 visitors each time.
Here’s a short video of the exhibition in September. You can also see the photos of the winners and the closing ceremony towards the end of the video.
How it works:
Please submit your photos (max 5 per person) before the deadline, using the registration form.
Every submitted photo will be printed, exhibited and receive votes from visitors during the exhibition.
A panel of Swiss Photo Club instructors will select their favorite 30 photos from all submissions. These photos will be printed in a bigger size (30cm x 45cm or similar dimensions for different formats), glued on Dibond for hanging and be offered for sale in the gallery during the exhibition.
The remaining photos will also be printed in a smaller size and exhibited in the gallery (exact size will depend on the number of submissions, previous time it was 10cm x 15cm).
During the exhibition, visitors will be able to vote for their top 3 photos from all the submissions.
The top 5 photos chosen by these votes (1 jury and 4 public) will receive fantastic rewards from our sponsors during the closing party of the exhibition.
Program:
Nov 6, Mon: Deadline for submissions
Dec 7, Thu: Vernissage evening
Dec 8-13: Free workshops in the gallery
Dec 14, Thu: Awards ceremony and closing party
Location: Foxx Gallery
Foxx Gallery is a beautiful fine-art photography gallery in the heart of Zurich City. Address: Rämistrasse 33, 8001 Zürich.
