Throughout the year, we’re going to be organising events and competitions. These are a chance for everyone to get involved, to promote your work or to spot new talent. We’d like this new community for photography to flourish. All events and competitions are completely free.
Events
Informal Crits
Key to the events program are our bi-monthly informal crit sessions, to encourage an environment of dialogue and debate, giving photographers and photography lovers the chance to get together to discuss work, show projections, argue and drink beer! Happening at various venues, the next crit is on the 14th July, meeting 7pm in the fabulous upstairs room of the 3 Kings Pub in Clerkenwell, London. Magnum’s Anna Gormley and Panos Pictures’ Josh Lustig and Paula James will be there giving informal reviews. If you’re in town bring along your portfolio, or love of photography, and join us. E-mail us on info@contacteditions.co.uk if you’d like to attend.
Competitions
Entering competitions is important throughout your life as a photographer, it’s nice to be rewarded in what can often feel a fairly solitary pursuit, and it’s great for your profile. All of our competitions are aimed at getting new work into a different arena. We’ll be featuring a new competition shortly…
Slideshows!
After a really successful Spring Slideshows event, showing work from over 15 photographers and collectives, we are in the process of arranging our next slideshows evening, with plans to make it even bigger and better! E-mail us on info@contacteditions.co.uk if you have a body of work or a multimedia piece that you’d like to show.
We are also continually taking submissions for new editions, next deadline 30th September. Please see our submissions page.
