World Press Photo Exhibition in Budapest

• 27 Sep 2021 6:20 AM

Shown until 30 October 2021. This special exhibition is on its annual world-wide tour showcasing the 'stories that matter' with photography from the 64th annual World Press Photo Contest and winning productions from the 11th annual Digital Storytelling Contest.

The winners were chosen by an independent jury that reviewed more than 74,470 photographs entered by 4,315 photographers from 130 countries.

The contest rewards professional photographers for the best pictures - presented as singles or in stories - contributing to the past year of visual journalism.

In 1955 a group of Dutch photographers organized an international contest (“World Press Photo”) to expose their work to a global audience.

Since then the contest has grown into the world’s most prestigious photography competition, and through our successful worldwide exhibition program, presents the winning stories to millions of people.
