Oksana Oleinik, curator of the Andrei Stenin Contest, has shared her remarks regarding the shortlist:

“A crucial aspect of our competition is the work of the jury. In this special anniversary year of the Andrei Stenin Contest, we have invited previous Grand Prix winners to join the jury panel. These photographers, who came from various countries, have since become esteemed masters, each offering their unique expert perspectives.

They have demonstrated exceptional professionalism by meticulously selecting outstanding works from a vast and diverse pool of submitted photographs for the shortlist. I encourage everyone to visit our competition website and explore these selections. The creativity of young photographers continues to inspire us, and we are pleased to support them as they embark on their careers.”

The organizing committee will publish the winners of each of the prizes, including the Grand Prix, in September on the contest website https://stenincontest.com/ Plans are also in place to organize, by the end of the year, a traditional road show – a touring exhibition of this year’s winning entries, which will visit various countries and cities.
