The Lucie Foundation is proud to support professional and emerging talent with vision and dynamic ideas that challenge and progress the art form of still photography into work that compels. Our support of photography is broad, from Fine Art to Documentary and Photojournalism, to digital and film-based works. Our concern is to support photographers producing work that is at once gripping, and original.
The Lucie Foundation is proud to offer four cash grants and a variety of prizes to support the work of emerging and established photographers.
WINNERS AND FINALISTS WILL BE PART OF A GROUP EXHIBITION IN LOS ANGELES AT LOS ANGELES CENTER OF PHOTOGRAPHY IN NOVEMBER.
