2024 Fondation Grand Paradis’ photography competition, dedicated to minimalism in nature photography, will accept entries until 20 March 2025. Participants will therefore be enabled to cover all seasons of the year, from summer to spring, with their shots.

The Foundation also announced the prizes for the winners. The first place winner will win a three-night stay in Cogne for two people with lunch at the Belvedere Restaurant in Gimillan, an aperitif at the Hotel Bellevue, the photographic book ‘The King - The Ibex in the Gran Paradiso National Park’, an 18-litre backpack and an Alpine Convention card. For second and third places - and for one lucky person drawn at random among all the participants - photography and mountain publications, Montura T-shirts of the Gran Paradiso Film Festival, Salewa thermal mountain water bottles and many other prizes are up for grabs. The complete list of the prizes is available at grand-paradis.it.

The theme of the competition, ‘Minimal - Minimalism in nature photography’, aims to emphasise the power of a single photographic gesture: a detail, a colour, a shape, a cut of light, which in its simplicity evokes all the power of nature.

The jury that will select the winning shots is composed of the photographers Enzo Massa Micon, Paolo Rey and Giorgio Marcoaldi, the journalist Davide Jaccod and the President and Director of Fondation Grand Paradis, Corrado Jordan and Luisa Vuillermoz.

The best images in the competition, with the name of their author, will be featured in the communication material of the 28th Gran Paradiso Film Festival and will be the protagonists of an exhibition in the area. Also during the Festival, in the summer of 2025, the three winners will be announced and prizes awarded.

Participation in the competition is free of charge. To enter, you must fill in the online entry form available at www.grand-paradis.it and send your photographic material in high resolution to the address concorso@grand-paradis.it.
