An important new feature is URBAN Book Award<\/strong>, that will take its place beside the usual sections destined to Single Photos<\/strong> (4 thematic areas: Streets, People, Spaces, Creative<\/em>) and Projects & Portfolios<\/strong>. A new section designed for photographers that feel the limit of 12 photos set for the Projects & Portfolio <\/strong>section as a restraint, and would like to submit extended projects (or larger versions of the same projects already competing in the Projects & Portfolio <\/strong>section). Extended projects are to be conceived as \u201cdummy\u201d, that is as drafts of photographic book<\/strong>. The goal is to give the winning photographer the possibility to produce and promote<\/strong> their own authorial project internationally<\/strong>. It will be published as a paper book <\/strong>by dotART \/ URBAN and officially presented during the festival Trieste Photo Days 2020<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Another new feature is the special prize New Buildings<\/em><\/strong>, designed together with Matrix4design<\/a><\/strong> and dedicated to the photos representing some of the symbols of architecture that have helped change the look of the city over the past ten years.<\/p>\n

To apply for photos and projects just register in the User Area<\/strong><\/a> and follow the procedure on the form. Users already registered in 2019 can log in with the same data.<\/p>\n

Works must be submitted no later than May 31st, 2020<\/strong> and will be selected by a prestigious Jury chaired by Alex Webb<\/strong>, American photographer and member of the prestigious Magnum Photos<\/strong> agency.<\/p>\n

Alex Webb and Rebecca Norris Webb will be guests of honor at the seventh edition of Trieste Photo Days<\/strong><\/a> where they will personally choose the Winners of URBAN 2020 and will reward them during the awards ceremony of the contest on Saturday, October 24, 2020.
