Winner of the HCB Award 2011: Vanessa WINSHIP
I really like Vanessa Winship's work. Her photograph of two boys, superimposed on an image of what look like a backyard, is my favorite. Amazing how an accident could become a real winner!
HCB seems a great opportunity as it offers a real chance to a talanted photographer, it buys the most precious commodity in this life - time.
Here is the info about the HCB award as described on their website: Presented by the Henri Cartier-Bresson Foundation, the HCB Award is a prize to stimulate a photographer’s creativity by offering the opportunity to carry out a project that would otherwise be difficult to achieve.
It is intended for a photographer who have already completed a significant body of work, a talented photographer in the emerging phase of his or her career, with an approach close to that of documentary. The prize is of 30 000 Euros and is awarded every other year.
Eighteen months after the reception of the prize, the winner will have an exhibition of his work at the Fondation HCB in Paris and a catalogue will be published.
