The Double City emerges as an important multidisciplinary photographic initiative conceived on the occasion of "GO! 2025 Nova Gorica-Gorizia European Capital of Culture".

Its goal is to explore and understand the complex realities of communities divided by borders, offering an in-depth look at the current challenges and dynamics that characterize these dual cities.
Photographers from all over the world are welcome to submit single photographs and/or projects and portfolios.

The participating photographers will have the opportunity to be published in the themed photographic book and to become part of an important photographic exhibition in the large international setting of the Trieste Photo Days 2024 photography festival in the presence of important special guests.

Through the art of photography, the aim is to tell the everyday, social, and cultural stories that define life in these twin cities.
By drawing on your artistic sensitivity and personal experiences, the project seeks to capture the identities and cross-border relationships, providing a rich and nuanced view of these locations.

Each author will have the freedom to interpret the theme using the photographic genre that best suits their vision, from social reportage to documentary photography, from urban architecture to street photography, from portrait to creative photography, and from landscape to fine art. We look forward to exploring dual cities around the world through your unique eye!
