Trieste Photo Young is a new FREE contest dedicated to photographers under 30, promoted by the cultural association dotART along with the assistance of “Fondazione Pietro Pittini” and in collaboration with PAG – Progetto Area Giovani (Municipality of Trieste), within the international festival Trieste Photo Days 2021.

Trieste Photo Young aims to discover, support and reward young photographers by offering them a prestigious exhibition space during the eighth edition of Trieste Photo Days, which will take place over the weekend, from the 28th to the 31st of October 2021, and will host giants of photography like Bruce Gilden, Paolo Pellegrin and Francesco Cito.

This will be an innovative and exciting contest divided into two parts: the first stage consists of a group stage while the second one is a knockout stage, along the lines of the World Cup. You can follow the evolution of the content on this website, where the classifications will be published and updated as the jury votes.
