LensCulture-Preis für Schwarz-Weiß-Fotografie 2026

LensCulture’s Black & White Photography Awards 2026 is an international competition open to all photographers aged 18 and over. Participants may submit a single image or a series of up to ten images, provided the work was created within the last ten years. The competition offers a total of $10,000 in cash prizes—$3,500 for first‑place series, $2,000 for second‑place series, $1,000 for third‑place series, and $2,000, $1,000, $500 for single‑image winners. In addition to the monetary awards, winners receive a solo feature on LensCulture, inclusion in a permanent online gallery, and a group exhibition in London in 2027 as part of Photo London. Entry fees vary: a free single‑image entry is available, while additional images cost $10 each, and a full series costs $35. The competition is recurring, with a new edition each year, and the 2026 deadline is October 14, 2026. LensCulture, a Dutch photography platform, hosts the event and provides extensive exposure through its global network of editors, curators, and collectors.
