Exciting additions to this year’s exhibition include an exclusive space dedicated to recent works by Australian photographer Adam Ferguson, who won last year’s Photographer of the Year for his series Migrantes. Another new feature for the 2023 exhibition is the winning series of the new Sustainability Prize.
The exhibition will also include a special curation of around 20 photographs by this year’s Outstanding Contribution to Photography recipient Japanese photographer Rinko Kawauchi. The display will be a substantial mix from her career, including highlight works from her series Utatane (2001), AILA (2004) and Illuminance (2009) – which all exemplify her idiosyncratic style.
