Resultados de los Sony World Photography Awards 2019

Ayer tuvo lugar la gala de entrega de premios de los Sony World Photography Awards, a la que asistimos en directo desde Londres.

Producidos por la World Photography Organisation, los Sony World Photography Awards, ya en su 12ª edición, son uno de los concursos fotográficos más grandes y mejor valorados del mundo. La edición de 2019 recibió el récord de 326.997 fotografías de 195 países.

El codiciado título de Fotógrafo del Año y el premio de 25.000 $ se concedió al artista italiano Federico Borella por su serie Five Degrees.

Borella fue seleccionada entre los diez ganadores de la categoría del concurso Profesional que se anunciaron junto con los del 2 ° y 3 ° lugar en cada categoría profesional. Los ganadores generales de los Premios Open (la mejor imagen individual), las competiciones Youth y Student también se dieron a conocer, durante la prestigiosa ceremonia de los Premios de Londres, donde el reconocimiento a su contribución a la fotografía de 2019 (Outstanding Contribution to Photography) fue para el artista Nadav Kander que estuvo presente para recoger su premio. Todos los ganadores han recibido equipos de fotografía digital de Sony, su trabajo se ha publicado en el libro de los ganadores y se mostrarán como parte de la Exposición de los Premios de Fotografía Mundial de Sony 2019 en Somerset House, Londres.

Federico Borella fue elegido como fotógrafo del año con su proyecto Five Degrees.

La serie Five Degrees se centra en el suicidio masculino en la comunidad agrícola de Tamil Nadu, en el sur de la India, que enfrenta la peor sequía en 140 años. Basado en un estudio de la Universidad de Berkeley, que encontró una correlación entre el cambio climático y el aumento de las tasas de suicidio entre los agricultores indios, Borella ha explorado el impacto del cambio climático en esta región agrícola y su comunidad a través de una mezcla conmovedora y poderosa de imágenes que representan el paisaje agrícola, los recuerdos. de los campesinos fallecidos, y retratos de los que quedaron atrás.

Mike Trow comenta: “A medida que el calentamiento global cambia el rostro de la vida cada vez más rápidamente, especialmente en países en desarrollo y subdesarrollados, el trabajo de artistas como Borella se hace cada vez más necesario”.

Máximos galardones para dos artistas españoles

Álvaro Laiz – 1er puesto, categoría Portraiture por la serie The Edge

El concurso Professional premia series sobresalientes de cinco a diez imágenes que demuestren destreza artística en diez categorías diversas.

La serie ganadora de Laiz ofrece una visión cautivadora de los chukchis, una tribu paleosiberiana del lado ruso del estrecho de Bering. El fotógrafo está muy interesado en la genética poblacional de los nativos americanos y demuestra ese entusiasmo en su trabajo. The Edge consta de retratos en blanco y negro que intentan resaltar “los vínculos entre nuestro pasado lejano y nuestro futuro cercano”.

La categoría Portraiture desafía a los fotógrafos a presentar trabajos que transmitan expresión, emoción y personalidad. El jurado buscaba retratos sólidos y evocadores. La jueza Isabella van Marle (jefa de relaciones con expositores de Unseen, Países Bajos) explica por qué este trabajo ha sido el ganador de la categoría Portraiture: “Cuando vimos los retratos, tenían mucha fuerza. Puedes sentir la identidad de las personas retratadas. El uso del blanco y negro hace que la serie sea incluso más sólida. La distancia entre las personas retratadas en la serie y el artista es la correcta. Se nota que esas personas lo han aceptado y se sienten cómodas cuando él les está haciendo fotos”.

Como ganador de la categoría Professional, Laiz ha volado a Londres para asistir a la ceremonia de premios y ha recibido equipos de imagen digital de Sony, además de ser publicado en el libro de los ganadores. El trabajo ganador será también incluido en la Sony World Photography Awards Exhibition 2019 de Somerset House (Londres), antes de realizar una gira mundial.

Sergi Villanueva, Student Photographer of the Year por su serie La Terreta

Villanueva, un estudiante de 25 años de la Universidad Jaume I, ha ganado el prestigioso premio Student Photographer of the Year.

En el concurso Student, diez estudiantes de fotografía de todo el mundo fueron elegidos como finalistas por una primera serie que tenía que girar en torno al tema “Evolution”. Todos los estudiantes finalistas recibieron equipos de Sony para crear una nueva serie de fotografías sobre el tema “Belong”, que fue con la que compitieron por el premio final. Villaneuva fue preseleccionado por su primera serie, Hooked on their Mobiles, y ganó el premio general por su segunda serie, La Terreta.

La Terreta, que en valenciano significa “orgullo por la tierra en la que vives”, proporciona una visión personal de la tierra natal del fotógrafo. El estudiante captura una plantación de naranjos y el trabajo y la cultura cotidianos que giran en torno a ella. La serie fotográfica es diversa, pero sigue una narrativa clara, con imágenes que van desde los agricultores que cosechan la fruta hasta las mujeres que trabajan en el almacén para distribuir las naranjas. Todo ello captura la esencia de lo que Villanueva identifica como hogar e identidad.

Al hablar de su trabajo ganador, Villanueva explica: “El naranjo es la esencia de mi tierra, mantiene el sentimiento de pertenencia y deja la puerta abierta a las generaciones futuras, difundiendo un mensaje sobre el valor de cuidar lo que la naturaleza nos da como parte de nuestra identidad”.

Por ser el ganador, Villanueva recibe 30.000 € en equipos fotográficos Sony para su universidad y también ha sido invitado a la ceremonia de premios de Londres.

Harmony es una imagen de la serie Muses del artista que se inspiró en la belleza y la vulnerabilidad de la humanidad.

Tutti i vincitori dei Sony World Photography Awards 2019

Oggi la World Photography Organisation ha reso noti i nomi dei vincitori assoluti dei prestigiosi Sony World Photography Awards 2019.

L’ambito titolo di Fotografo dell’Anno, insieme a un premio in denaro di 25.000 dollari (USD), è stato conferito, nel corso di una cerimonia svoltasi a Londra, all’artista italiano Federico Borella per la serie di scatti Five Degrees.L’opera è stata elogiata dalla giuria per la sensibilità, l’eccellenza tecnica e la capacità di mettere in luce con espressione artistica un problema di portata mondiale. La piattaforma globale dei Sony World Photography Awards rappresenta un importantissimo sguardo sul mondo della fotografia contemporanea e offre agli artisti, sia affermati che emergenti, la straordinaria opportunità di esporre il proprio lavoro.

Borella è stato selezionato tra i primi classificati delle dieci categorie del concorso Professionisti, annunciati oggi insieme ai secondi e terzi posti di ciascuna categoria. Anche i nomi dei vincitori dei concorsi Open (miglior scatto singolo), Giovani e Student sono stati svelati durante la prestigiosa cerimonia di premiazione tenutasi a Londra, nel corso della quale l’artista Nadav Kander ha ritirato il premio Outstanding Contribution to Photography 2019. Tutti i vincitori si sono aggiudicati un set di apparecchiature fotografiche di Sony e le loro immagini sono state sia pubblicate nel libro dei vincitori di quest’anno che esposte nell’ambito della mostra dei Sony World Photography Awards 2019 presso la Somerset House londinese.

La giuria di quest’anno ha premiato le opere che hanno saputo dare espressione e interpretazione alle vite e alle problematiche che interessano l’intero pianeta. Mike Trow, presidente del concorso Professionisti, ha così commentato le candidature di quest’anno: “Le immagini hanno suscitato nella giuria grande interesse e anche un intenso confronto, con la loro capacità di allargare i confini della fotografia e di mettere in discussione le percezioni e le aspettative del pubblico.”

Promossi dalla World Photography Organisation, i Sony World Photography Awards sono uno dei più vasti e prestigiosi concorsi fotografici al mondo. La 12a edizione ha battuto ogni record con le sue 326.997 candidature, presentate da fotografi originari di 195 paesi e territori: il risultato è una bellissima panoramica delle migliori opere contemporanee realizzate negli ultimi 12 mesi.

Fotografo dell’Anno - Federico Borella, Italia

Five Degrees è un progetto del fotografo bolognese Federico Borella (35 anni). Con una laurea in Lettere e un Master in Fotogiornalismo, Borella è un fotoreporter freelance con oltre dieci anni di esperienza, oltre che docente in fotografia e fotogiornalismo. Le sue immagini sono state pubblicate su diverse testate internazionali. La serie Five Degrees racconta la piaga dei suicidi maschili nella comunità agricola di Tamil Nadu, nel sud dell’India, colpita dalla più grave siccità degli ultimi 140 anni. Partendo da uno studio dell’università di Berkeley, che ha trovato una correlazione tra il cambiamento del clima e l’aumento nel numero dei suicidi tra i contadini indiani, Borella ha esplorato l’impatto dei cambiamenti climatici su questa regione agricola e la sua comunità attraverso immagini vivide e toccanti del paesaggio, dei ricordi dei defunti e dei loro cari ancora in vita.

Mike Trow ha commentato: “Alla luce dei drammatici e sempre più rapidi effetti del riscaldamento globale, soprattutto nei paesi in via di sviluppo e sottosviluppati, c’è sempre più bisogno del lavoro di artisti come Borella”.

Fotografo dell’anno concorso Open - Christy Lee Rogers, Stati Uniti

Il concorso Open celebra la potenza visiva di scatti singoli. Le immagini vincitrici sono state selezionate per l’efficacia narrativa unita a caratteristiche tecniche d’eccellenza. Tra i vincitori delle dieci categorie Open, la fotografa hawaiana residente a Nashville Christy Lee Rogers è stata proclamata Fotografa dell’Anno Concorso Open per lo scatto Harmony e ha ricevuto un premio in denaro di 5.000 dollari. Nota per gli effetti suggestivi creati con l’uso dell’acqua e della luce, la Rogers espone le proprie opere a livello internazionale.

Harmony è un’immagine tratta dalla serie di scatti Muses dell’artista, ispirati alla bellezza e alla vulnerabilità dell’essere umano. Nell’immagine, la fotografa ha creato una scena eterea, evocativa della pittura barocca, sfruttando i chiaroscuri, il colore, e il movimento sott’acqua dei corpi raffigurati.

“È un onore per me ricevere questo riconoscimento fotografico, visto che per tanti anni sono stata quasi sempre descritta come pittrice o come artista appartenente a qualche categoria sconosciuta” ha dichiarato la Rogers. “Sono grata di far parte del mondo della fotografia e riconoscente per lo splendido premio ricevuto!”

Fotografo dell’anno concorso Giovani – Zelle Westfall, Stati Uniti, 18 anni

La studentessa americana di Atlanta, Zelle Westfall, è stata premiata per lo scatto Abuot, un’intensa immagine realizzata per il tema “Diversità”. A proposito dell’opera premiata, la Westfall ha detto: “Abuot è un’amica di scuola ed è una delle persone più simpatiche che conosca. Nella società di oggi, con la vendita dei prodotti sbiancanti e il “colorismo” che dilaga sui mezzi di comunicazione, è importante evidenziare la bellezza delle donne di pelle scura, cui viene spesso detto che sono “troppo scure””. Il concorso Giovani è aperto ai giovani fotografi di età compresa tra 12 e 19 anni.

Outstanding Contribution to Photography – Nadav Kander

Tra gli artisti più contemporanei sulla scena fotografica mondiale, Nadav Kander, che vive a Londra, è annoverato tra i fotografi di maggiore successo della propria generazione. Le sue opere spaziano tra i più disparati generi, dai paesaggi d’atmosfera ai ritratti di personaggi celebri. L’onorificenza speciale conferita a Kander vuole essere un riconoscimento per il contributo versatile, potente e attento prestato al mezzo della fotografia.

La notizia dei vincitori assoluti va a completare il quadro dei riconoscimenti assegnati nel 2019, che ha iniziato a delinearsi lo scorso marzo con l’annuncio dei 10 vincitori delle categorie Open e dei 62 vincitori dei National Awards.

Who are the 2018 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Finalists?

Each year, the CFDA and Vogue partner up to help up-and-coming designers in the fashion industry with funding and mentorship opportunities. From hundreds of applicants, ten designers are selected and these promising candidates will go on to compete for three prizes. This year, the overall winner will walk away with $400,000 and the two runners-up will each get $150,000. In addition, the winners will each receive a year of mentorship from a prominent name in the fashion industry. Basically, this award has the ability to completely change a designer’s career.

“This year’s ten finalists will more than ably follow in the footsteps of those who have gone before them,” said Anna Wintour in a statement. “They’re not only talented, they’re engaged with a rapidly changing world, reflecting a whole new set of values and beliefs about what fashion can and should be.”

Past winners of the coveted prize include Alexander Wang and Joseph Altuzarra. Both have gone on to achieve success in the fashion industry.

This year’s top ten will now begin several months of meetings and design challenges in which they will be in constant contact with a panel of judges that include the likes of Anna Wintour and Diane von Furstenberg. But who exactly are these designers? Below we give you a little introduction.

Batsheva X Fresh-faced beauty

A post shared by Batsheva (@batshevadress) on May 24, 2018 at 6:14am PDT

Batsheva Hay, Batsheva

Founded in 2016, Batsheva is a ready-to-wear brand based out of New York that specializes in dresses. The retro pieces are unapologetically feminine and Hay often experiments with colour, prints and ruffles. She cites Laura Ashley as an inspiration and her delicate pieces often seem straight out of Little House on the Prairie (in the best way possible).

Emily Adams Bode, Bode

Despite a tendency to look to the future in fashion, Bode has decided to look back. Launched in 2016, Bode is unique in that it uses antique textiles, reimagined in modern ways. These repurposed materials might be vintage quilts, bed linens or even towels. Bode turns these unusual finds into tailored menswear pieces: button-down shirts, workwear trousers and jackets that you won’t find anywhere else.

Christian Cowan, Christian Cowan

When it comes to the Christian Cowan, this brand is all about having fun. The young designer has become a pretty big name in the industry, with celebrity clients like Lady GaGa and Miley Cyrus. Cardi-B, the Bronx rapper who skyrocketed to fame this year, even wore a graphic black and white trench coat from Cowan on the cover of her latest album, Invasion of Privacy. From fur, to fringe, to glitter, Cowan’s clothes make a bold statement and his fearlessness on the runway has garnered him a lot of attention.

Danielle Corona, Hunting Season

Founded in 2006, Hunting Season works directly with artisans from Colombia to help create each new collection. The line includes bags, belts and small leather goods. With a focus on construction and quality, Corona creates pieces that are both chic and timeless. The designer has a strong foundation underneath her, previously spending time at the Valentino accessory atelier. Celebrities like Amal Clooney, Sienna Miller and Gwyneth Paltrow have all been spotted sporting the brand.

Jonathan Cohen and Sarah Leff, Jonathan Cohen

Back in 2011, Jonathan Cohen was created and despite much business growth over the years, operations behind the brand have remained relatively small. Designer’s Cohen and Leff recently debuted their 2018 Fall/Winter collection which they revealed was inspired by the documentary, Grey Gardens. The playful collection brings florals into fall and features detailed embroidery and beading. The relaxed fits, which are meant to feel like a second skin, come a long way from the cocktail dresses the pair initally focused on when starting their brand.

Raul Lopez, Luar

This brand has been seen on a bunch of A-list celebs, from Kendrick Lamar to Solange Knowles, people flock to Luar for its unique voice and gender fluid clothing. Luar blends the downtown New York scene with Lopez’s Dominican heritage. The designer previously collaborated with Shayne Oliver on Hood By Air, but Luar is the designer’s chance to create something all on his own. Whether models are voguing down the runway or donning futuristic stilts, Lopez’s shows are always memorable.

Matthew Adams Dolan, Matthew Adams Dolan

This designer’s mother was an avid quilter and needleworker, and she’s clearly passed down her skills to her son. Matthew Adams Dolan specializes in quality construction. The level of craftsmanship is palpable in Dolan’s constructions, which often sees him manipulate casual denim and transform it into something completely unique. His creativity is what has earned him celebrity fans like Rihanna and SZA.

Kerby Jean-Raymond, Pyer Moss

This designer often uses his platform to discuss bigger social issues, telling Fashionista he wanted to establish Pyer Moss as “more of culture than a clothing brand.” During his Fall 2018 runway show, he enlisted the help of a gospel choir to sing uplifting anthems of black empowerment. This included the song “Alright” by rapper Kendrick Lamar, which has been linked to the Black Lives Matter movement.

Rebecca de Ravenel, Rebecca de Ravenel

In 2015 Rebecca de Ravenel launched her accessories brand and has been growing her following ever since. With a childhood spent between the Bahamas and Paris, you can see both fun, tropical elements and metropolitan elegance in her products. Recently, the designer branched out from her jewelry line, debuting a full ready-to-wear line last September.

Scosha Woolridge, Scosha

This Australian-born designer started making jewelry after being inspired from her travels through the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia and South America. She launched her brand in 2007 with a bracelet inspired by a trip to India. Scosha includes both costume and fine jewelry and also offers bespoke items.
