Join us for an exploration of the most intriguing winning images of the prestigious photojournalism contest World Press Photo and meet one of the winning photographers.

Each year, the prestigious World Press Photo Exhibition travels all over the world to major cities like Tokyo, Rome, and Sydney. And each year, it lands in Eindhoven at our university. Unfortunately, due to the current covid-19 measures, the World Press photo 2020 exhibition at TU/e -planned to take place from March 12 until 31- had to be canceled. The good news is, however, that you can join the online live streamed event in which many of the winning images will be explored.

In this online event, we’ve invited World Press Photo Exhibition Manager Samira Damato to tell us about the most intriguing images of the 2020 Exhibition and about the issues that are connected to photojournalism: freedom of press, dedication and sacrifice, danger, creating awareness and political change, visual culture, and the question what makes a photo truly great.

We’ll also be joined by renowned photographer Esther Horvath, 1st prize winner of  World Press Photo Award, Environmental single category in 2020. Esther is a Fellow at International League of Conservation Photographers, iLCP, member of The Photo Society and science photographer for Alfred Wegener Institute in Germany. Her work has been featured in National Geographic,The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, TIME, Audubon Magazine and GEO Magazine.
