Every chosen image, every awarded project, every name selected at the Milano Photo Awards passes through a high-profile international jury, composed of recognized experts in the world of photography, art, and contemporary visual culture.
The evaluation committee includes:
– The curatorial team of TheStreetSoup, creators and organizers of the event
– A select panel from the Mazzoleni Foundation, long active in the promotion of contemporary art
– Official representatives from Nikon Italia, the main sponsor of the contest
– And 10 prominent international figures including photographers, photo editors, festival curators, and directors of cultural institutions.
To ensure a transparent evaluation, free from any possible external influence, the complete list of jurors will be announced only 15 days before the final selection begins.
A precise and deliberate choice that protects the integrity of the process, the neutrality of the judgment, and the authentic value of each application.
Here, only the images matter. The author’s voice. The story that emerges with power, coherence, and truth.
Projects will be evaluated according to clear parameters:
– visual power
– narrative impact
– originality of vision
– adherence to the theme (in the case of the Main Exhibition)
– technical and project quality
The dialogue among jurors – coming from different experiences and cultures – is what ensures a balanced, independent, and authoritative selection.
AT THE MILANO PHOTO AWARDS, THE JURY DOESN’T AWARD PRIZES. THEY RECOGNIZE THEM
