THE WINNERS OF THE 2010 PHOTOGRAPHY PORTFOLIO COMPETITION.
The Women’s Committee of the Philadelphia Museum of Art is pleased to announce the winners of our 2010 Photography Portfolio Competition. The competition was conceived to draw attention to photography’s significance as a contemporary art form, and as part of a strategy to broaden and build the Museum’s already extensive photography collection. The Women’s Committee hoped to attract established artists and to discover new talent. Eight hundred photographers from around the world submitted images. Our team of expert jurors selected six winning artists for the portfolio, along with one Curator’s Choice winner whose print will be sold individually.
The six artists selected for the 2010 Photography Portfolio will each receive a $1,000 prize. The artists are:
Martine Fougeron, Bronx, New York
Jin Koh, Boryeong, Chungnam, South Korea
Rory Mulligan, New Haven, Connecticut
Jason Reblando, Chicago, Illinois
Elaine Stocki, West St. Paul, Manitoba, Canada
Monika Sziladi, Astoria, New York
The Curator’s Choice single-print winner will receive a $500 prize:
Janet Pritchard, Mansfield Center, Connecticut
Each of these artists’ winning images will become part of the collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
