The Nannen Prize pays tribute to outstanding work in German journalism and granted to print and digital authors as well as photographers. This year 982 texts and photos were submitted, and judges awarded six prizes under different categories. Arne Svenson Wins Prize for Photo Reportage category Nannen Prize 2016 with Neighbors series. In the body of work, Svenson turned outward from his usual studio based practice to observe the daily activities of his downtown Manhattan neighbors as seen through his windows into theirs. The grid structure of the windows frame the quotidian activities of the neighbors into a highly aestheticized project of social anthropology. Voyeuristic and investigative, the body of work is a social documentation in a very rarified enviroment.
