German Youth Photo Award

With this year’s theme, “A House, A Boat, A Car,” the German Youth Photo Award once again invites enthusiastic photographers up to the age of 25 to capture their impressions and worries about their own future in photographs. The winners, selected by a six-member jury of experts, will have the opportunity to exhibit their award-winning works for the first time at KIT – Kunst im Tunnel. It is very important to KIT to offer young talents their first experience of exhibiting at an institutional level.

Project management: Jana-Catharina Israel (KIT) and Katharina Klapdor Ben Salem (DJF)
