The Photobook Dummy Award has launched a new initiative called the Photozine Award to inspire more individuals, particularly young people, to engage in creating and publishing photozines. This award is a key feature of the Hong Kong Photobook Festival, dedicated to supporting emerging artists by providing them with opportunities to showcase their work at international events. Submissions are open to photographers, artists, and creatives worldwide. Winning dummies from previous years have been exhibited globally, offering exposure to a diverse audience.
Finalists’ works will be displayed at the Hong Kong Photobook Festival 2025, allowing winners to interact with industry professionals and share their creative processes with attendees. The awards include a subsidy for participation in international photobook festivals or self-publishing ventures. Eligibility criteria vary for the Photobook Dummy Award and Photozine Award, with unique requirements for each category. Applicants must adhere to specific guidelines regarding originality, publication status, creation date, and content specifications.
To apply, candidates must register online, submit required documents, and send physical copies by post or in person. Detailed instructions for packaging and submission are provided, including guidelines for file formats, image resolution, and language preferences. Additional information can be found on the Hong Kong Photobook Festival website.
