Welcome to the Aperture Portfolio Prize, an international photography competition.
The purpose of the Aperture Portfolio Prize is to identify trends in
contemporary photography and highlight artists whose work deserves
greater recognition. When choosing the first-prize winner and
runners-up, Aperture’s editorial and curatorial staff look for
innovative bodies of work that haven’t been widely seen in major
publications or exhibition venues. Previous winners and runners-up
include Michal Chelbin, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Alexander Gronsky, Sarah
Palmer, Bryan Schutmaat, and Jordan Tate, among others.
First prize is $3,000 and an exhibition at Aperture Gallery. The
first-prize winner and up to five runners-up will be featured on
Aperture’s website, where their images will be accompanied by a brief
statement written by Aperture staff. All winners are announced in the
foundation’s e-newsletter, which reaches forty thousand subscribers
across the globe, including curators, critics, and members of the
photography community. Winners will also have the opportunity to offer
their prints via the Aperture Foundation limited-edition print program.
