“By participating in the Christian Dior competition it was for a great experience and a great opportunity, with the accompaniment of MPW and the support of the PICHA workshop (in the biennial of Lubumbashi) I won the prize and it was extraordinary. a new world opened up to me from an artistic point of view and also on my artistic approach.”

As part of its presence for the fifth consecutive year in Arles, Christian Dior is pleased to renew the Dior Photography and Visual Arts Award for Young Talents. This fourth edition affirms Dior’s vocation to offer young visual artists (photographers, videographers, etc.) the opportunity to engage in a project bringing together professionals from the art world, in order to bring out new talent and help them kick-start their careers.
With the determination to create a strong and lasting project, Dior was keen to associate itself with the expertise of two exceptional partners throughout the competition: Luma Arles and the École nationale supérieure de la photographie. For this competition, Dior is giving carte blanche to young international artists having studied at the world’s most prestigious photography schools.
The work of the Laureates, including the winner and any Jury Mentions will be featured in an exhibition produced by Dior with the support of the ENSP, curated and hosted by Luma Arles.
This competition is open to current Market Photo Workshop students as well as Market Photo Workshop Alumni who have studied at the institution in the last 5 YEARS.
