Entries are now open for the €10,000 Luis Ferreira Alves International Photography Competition to honour the person and the work of this outstanding photographer, who bridged the gap between analogue and digital photography and whose work is recognised both nationally and internationally.
.
The Prize is based on the “Luis Ferreira Alves International Photography Competition | A Contemporary Look at Architecture,” which, through a protocol, includes the heirs of Luis Ferreira Alves and the promoters of the competition, namely Porto City Council (CMP) and Cityscopio-Cultural Association (CCA). The competition also has other important institutional partners, distributed between the organising committee – as the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Porto (FAUP) – and the group of strategic and sponsoring entities, as Casa da Arquitetura (CA) and the Northern Regional Coordination and Development Commission (CCDRN), the Marques da Silva Foundation Institute (FIMS) and the Order of Architects (OA); groups of great relevance, such as the CIN brand in the coatings market and widely recognised internationally and one of the largest companies in Europe and the world in the sector. Other notable partners include BPI, a financial institution focused on banking services in Portugal and controlled by CaixaBank Group, an economic leader in Spain, and Canon, one of the largest camera manufacturers in the world. They also have the Metro do Porto support in communicating and publicising the Competition – a light rail network essential to the city’s public transport system.
