Founded in 1998, the Prix PICTO de la Jeune Photographie de Mode aims to promote the work of young fashion photographers. The annual prize is selected by a jury of professionals. This year, the Prix Picto will be awarded to three photographers—one winner and two runners-up—giving their work increased visibility on the art market.
This is possible thanks to our new partners, JCDecaux and the Rosapark agency. In 2015, the candidates shortlisted for the Prix Picto de la Jeune Photographie de Mode will also participate in the Prix Spécial des Directeurs de Création. This new prize will be held entirely online and the jury will be made up of advertising professionals. Once again, the awards ceremony will be held at Le Pan Piper (http://pan-piper.com/live). The space is so original and well-suited our mission that we wanted to return in 2015.
Participants must meet the following conditions:
– You must be under 35 years old before the submission deadline
– Submit a coherent and representative selection of your work: black and white or color, at least 18x24cm, a minimum of 10 images
