FRAME (Beirut), 15-38 Réseau Med (Marseille), Institute Apis (Ljubljana), Jordan Pioneers (Amman), and L'Etoile du Sud (Batna),  have teamed up to bring you the 2017 Photo Marathon. Across the region, photographers will take to the streets to simultaneously document 12 secret themes in 12 hours resulting in a collection of photos depicting one day in the life of five cities.

Together, we will document our people and communities to produce a rich documentary archive. By focusing our efforts and imaginations through one collective eye, we hope to trigger dialogue and to uncover the many similarities and differences which encircle our sea.

JOIN US!

Skupaj bomo dokumentirali ljudi in soseske ter ustvarili bogat dokumentarni arhiv. Z osredotočeno akcijo in usmerjeno domišljijo v kolektivni pogled si prizadevamo, da zanetimo dialog in odkrijemo vrsto podobnosti in raznolokosti, ki obkrožajo naše morje.

PRIDRUŽITE SE NAM!


MERILA STROKOVNE ŽIRIJE

Strokovna žirija bo ocenjevala fotografe, ki so oddali 12 fotografij. Finalisti in zmagovalci bodo izbrani na podlagi celotne serije in ne na podlagi posameznih fotografij. Merila žirije po pomembnosti:

Dokumentarna vrednost in interpretacija teme: kako dobro fotoserija upodablja temo, ki jo dokumentira? Ali fotografije pripovedujejo zgodbo?
Splošen vtis: ima fotoserija moč pritegniti gledalčevo pozornost in jo zadržati?
Ustvarjalnost: je predmet fotografije upodobljen na edinstven način oziroma ali je navaden predmet prikazan iz zanimive perspektive? Ali fotografija izkazuje originalnost?
Tehnična kvaliteta: ali so ključni elementi dobro umeščeni v fotoserijo? Je fotoserija ostra? Je osvetlitev v ravnovesju? Je globina polja upoštevana/uporabljena?

Living near the demarcation line separating the Christian and Muslim zones, Baz was stimulated by what was going on around him to take up photography at an early age. Lebanon became his training ground. Between 1980 and 1988, he worked as a freelance photojournalist. His pictures were published in major international magazines like Paris Match, TIME, NewsWeek, Stern, Spiegel, l’Express, L’Espresso etc. In 1989, Agence France-Presse (AFP) gave him the opportunity to cover the First Intifada in Gaza and the West Bank. He also covered the First Gulf War in 1990, and later conflicts in Kurdistan, Somalia, Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan. Baz is currently AFP’s photo manager for the MENA region, but continues to work as a photographer on the field. He recently covered the Arab revolutions in Egypt and Libya.He sat as a member of the World Press Photo jury, the Bayeux Calvados Award for War Correspondents among other prestigious awards.

Il n’a que 12 ans quand la guerre du Liban éclate, en 1975. Habitant près de la ligne de démarcation séparant les Chrétiens des Musulmans, Patrick Baz se met à photographier ce qui se passe autour de lui, malgré son jeune âge. Le Liban devient son terrain d’apprentissage. Entre 1980 et 1988, il travaille comme photo-journaliste freelance, ses images sont publiées dans des magazines internationaux tels que Paris Match, Time, NewsWeek, Stern, Spiegel, L’Express, etc. En 1989, l’Agence France Presse (AFP) lui donne l’opportunité de couvrir la première Intifada.

                                Randa Mirza
                                Randa Mirza is a visual artist working mainly photographic medium and video. In 2006, she won the No Limit Prize at Les Rencontres Photographiques d'Arles, an international prize awarded to a photographer or artist who uses photography to help pushing the limits of photographic expression.

                                Randa Mirza calls into question the notion of identity: she seeks to deconstruct and question normative, gendered and orientalist representations by making visible the actual symbolic, social and political constructions.

                                Through her work, Mirza questions the nature of images and their social uses. She manipulates the image to reveal the inherent discourse in all representations, the tenuous boundary between fiction and reality.

                                Randa Mirza est une artiste visuelle travaillant principalement le medium photographique et la vidéo. Elle obtient en 2006 le prix No Limit aux Rencontres Photographiques d’Arles, un prix internationale qui récompense un photographe ou un artiste utilisant la photographie, qui par son travail, contribue à repousser les limites de l'expression photographique.
                                 
                                Randa Mirza remet en question la notion d’identité: elle cherche à déconstruire et à questionner les représentations normées, genrées et orientalisantes en rendant visible les constructions symboliques, sociales et politiques actuelles.
                                 
                                A travers son œuvre, Mirza interroge la nature des images et leurs utilisations sociales. Elle manipule l’image photographique pour révéler les discours inhérents à toutes représentations, à la frontière ténue entre fiction et réalité.

                                Kays Djilali est un photographe algérien et cadreur. Il collabore depuis une vingtaine d’années à divers magazines et à l’illustration de livres d’art. En 2006, il a co-réalisé un documentaire, Le Piège, qui jette un éclairage cru sur les destins croisés de subsahariens irréguliers au Maghreb. Entre 2006 et 2008, Kays Djilali a rencontré des migrants d’horizons divers dans les faubourgs de Bamako ou de Casablanca, dans des no man’s land de Tamanrasset ou des ghettos d’Alger, dans les banlieues de Paris ou de Madrid. Les photographies qu’il présente ici sont autant d’instants de vie : des portraits dépouillés qui saisissent les fragments d’un quotidien souvent tourmenté et impitoyable. Des personnes croisées au hasard des villes et des chemins, et qui ont toutes en commun d’avoir, un jour, tenté «l’aventure».

                                Animateur de workshops sur la photographie, il a mené plusieurs campagnes  de  prises  de  vues  photographiques  aériennes  et  terrestre  sur  les architectures de terre. Il a exposé à Pékin, Moscou, Prague, Barcelone, Bamako… Il a illustré une dizaine de beaux livres sur l’Algérie et l’Afrique.
