Deloitte Photo Grant 2025

The Open Call for the third edition of the Deloitte's Photo Grant is open until June 30, 2025. Promoted by Deloitte and Fondazione Deloitte, the grant is aimed at photographers under 35 and offers the opportunity to develop an original photographic project on the theme Contrast.

In line with the values of the initiative, Trieste Photo Days is pleased to support this project, which offers young talents valuable opportunities for growth and visibility.

Contrast: the theme of the Deloitte's Photo Grant 2025

The grant invites participants to reflect on social disparities and to tell, through photography, the stories behind the challenges related to human rights and the fight against all forms of discrimination. Photographers are called to explore the contrasts of our time: social tensions, cultural conflicts, and the duality between the individual and the collective.

Eligibility

The contest is open to all photographers under 35 who submit an original project on the theme Contrast, including a description of the concept and estimated production costs. Each participant must submit a portfolio of 10 images, including previous works or ongoing projects.

Prizes

The winner will receive a €20,000 grant, a mention in the group exhibition scheduled for November 2025 at Triennale Milano, and a solo exhibition during the 2026 edition of the Grant.

International jury

The selection, which will be completed by September 30, will be made by an international jury of world-renowned experts in photography and art, including Denis Curti – jury president of the Grant (and juror of URBAN Photo Awards), Guido Borsani (Fondazione Deloitte), Felix Hoffmann (curator, C/O Berlin), Mario Calabresi (journalist), Karin Rehn-Kaufmann (artistic director, Leica Galleries International), Davide Monteleone (photographer and winner of the 2024 Deloitte's Photo Grant), Giovanna Calvenzi (photo editor), Erik Kessels (curator), Diane Dufour (co-director of LE BAL), and George Tatge (photographer).
