Az W Photo Award

The Az W Photo Award was launched in 2009 under the motto 'Architecture and Urbanism in Southeast Europe' as part of the year's focus on the Balkans. Both the broad interest and, in particular, the astonishingly high quality of the entries convinced the jury at the Az W to develop the prize further.

THE THEME 2010:
PUBLIC SPACE
"Passers-by who wonder what I'm doing definitely don't realise that I find them just as puzzling."
Wilhelm Genanzino

The theme of this year's Az W Photo Award ties in closely with the autumn exhibition 'Platz da! / Make Space! European Urban Public Space' (14.10.10 – 31.01.11). To mark the 10th jubilee of the European Prize for Urban Public Space the Az W is devoting its attention to public space.
