The exhibition "Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize 2022" shows works by this year’s finalists, Deana Lawson, Gilles Peress, Jo Ractliffe and Anastasia Samoylova.
The influential award, which has been awarded in partnership with Deutsche Börse Group since 2005, is one of the most prestigious international awards for contemporary photography. It recognises photographic exhibitions and publications that have made a significant contribution to the medium. It has also established itself as a signpost for developments in photography, recognising outstanding, innovative and critical work that pushes the boundaries of the photographic medium and highlights its influence and relevance on the cultural landscape.
All four artists of the Prize 2022 address some of the most pressing issues of our time but take different approaches to visual storytelling. Jo Ractliffe’s work from South Africa shows new ways of visualising conflicts and their consequences, as does Gilles Peress’ footage of the streets of Northern Ireland. Deana Lawson’s depiction of the "Black Experience” creates a new iconography, while Anastasia Samoylova’s exploration of the effects of climate change in Florida highlights the discrepancy between idealised images and the reality of rising floods.
On 12 May 2022, the £30,000 award was given to Deana Lawson for her exhibition "Centropy” shown at Kunsthalle Basel. The exhibition "Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize 2022” is curated by Katrina Schwarz from the Photographers’ Gallery, London and is on display until 25 September at The Cube, Eschborn. |

| The Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation is a non-profit organisation based in Frankfurt/ Main that is dedicated to collecting, exhibiting and promoting contemporary photography. It is responsible for the further development and presentation of the Art Collection Deutsche Börse, which now comprises over 2,200 photographic works by around 150 artists from 30 nations. In its exhibition space in Eschborn near Frankfurt am Main, it shows several exhibitions a year that are open to the public. Supporting young artists is a particular concern of the foundation. It promotes them in many ways: with awards, scholarships or through participation in the Talent programme of the Fotografiemuseum Amsterdam Foam. Together with the Photographers' Gallery in London, it awards the renowned Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize every year. Furthermore, the foundation supports exhibition projects of international museums and institutions as well as the development of platforms for academic dialogue and research on the medium of photography. |
