The Charta Award is open to artists who incorporate the photographic medium in their artistic practice and have produced a project that could be printed in the book format. The theme of the award is open. We are looking for projects that underline an original narrative and use of contemporary language. Artists are invited to send a folder consisting of a minimum of 30 images and a synopsis that includes the author’s name, as well as the title and the description of the project. The artists are encouraged to include an edited PDF that could help the jury to better understand the project.

Prizes:

The winning project will be published by Yogurt Editions in an edition of 500 copies.

The artist will receive 30 free copies of the book and 10% royalties on copies sold, with a six-monthly report.

Eligibility:
