Award Ceremony
BIG Young Talent Award for Architectural Photography
23 March 18:00
Awarding by DI Hans-Peter Weiss, CEO Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft
Award Winner Nadine Weixler
Architectural photography shows how architecture can be interpreted in artistic, conceptual or documentary ways. Architectural photography is also a seismograph for social changes and can provide food for thought on questions of identity and reorientation. Within the framework of FOTO WIEN, the Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft (Federal Real Estate Company) awards the Young Talent Prize for Architectural Photography to photographers who are at the beginning of their careers but already have an interesting oeuvre. The BIG Young Photographers Award comes with prize money of 5,000 euros and is linked to a commission to photograph a BIG building.

K3 Projekt
Cultural education with apprentices
The workshop series will take place together with apprentices from the Jugend am Werk training company ZOBA Eck and thevocational school for trade and travel as part of FOTO WIEN.
At the festival headquarters in the Atelier Augarten, the two cultural mediators and photographers Elodie Grethen and Lisa Zalud will work together with the apprentices to shed light on the thematic focal points of the festival: The first focus is Women Photographers in Focus - highlighting the outstanding work of women photographers to counteract the still prevailing inequality compared to the representation of male colleagues. The workshop will reflect on the political and social positions of these photographic works and use the diversity of artistic creation as inspiration for their own portraits in the studio setting set up there.
The second thematic focus is Rethinking Nature, here the key role of photography in the perception of landscape is put into focus. It is about the often problematic relationship between man and nature. In addition, current ecological changes will be made visually tangible. After examining the content, the apprentices will work with the photographers to make the surrounding Augarten and its nature their own photographically and create cyanotypes, an old photographic noble printing process with blue hues.
The project is a cooperation with the OeAD and Basis.Kultur.Wien - Go for Culture and is carried out within the framework of the series "K3-PROJEKTE. Cultural Education with Apprentices" series.
