*ANNOUNCING THE 6TH EDITION OF RUN FOR ART*
*NEW TOPIC: ENVIRONMENT AND SPORT*
*A TOTAL OF 40 FINALISTS WILL BE SELECTED*
* *Now at its 6th edition, the international photography contest “Run for Art” returns with the topic “Environment and Sport.” The competition, promoted by the Giulio Onesti Foundation – Italian National Olympic Academy, is open to young photographers, both professionals and amateurs, aged between 18 and 35. Started at a national level in 2015, the contest has expanded to a global scale since its third edition. With the aim of combining art and sport through photography and creative expression, Run for Art has showcased the work of numerous young photographers around the world. Over the years, the photographs selected as finalists have been exhibited in internationally renowned locations. Participants have had the opportunity to showcase their work in exceptional venues such as the European Parliament in Strasbourg, the MAXXI Museum in Rome, the United Nations headquarters in New York, the International Mugham Center in Baku, and the Biltmore Hotel in Miami.
*A new topic “Environment and Sport” *– The topic chosen by the committee for Run for Art World’s 6th edition is “Environment and Sport”. The International Olympic Committee defines the environment as the third pillar of Olympism: sport can significantly contribute to protecting the natural environment and enhancing its resources, thanks to the values of respect, education, and sustainability that it promotes. The exceptional nature of the theme will provide ample space for the creativity of photographers, who are called upon to express, through their shots, the values of sport and its connection to art. The term “environment” will be considered in its broadest sense: not only referring to the natural environment but also encompassing the social, urban, and cultural aspects related to sports. The five categories of the competition, symbolically representing the five Olympic rings, for this 6th edition are the following: Sport and the Natural Environment; Sport and the Social Environment; Sport and the Urban Environment; Sport and the Cultural Environment; Sport and the Future Environment.
*Regulations and Online Exhibition – *Participation to the 6th edition of Run for Art is free and open to photographers, both professional and amateur, aged between 18 and 35, of any nationality. Registrations are open until 29 September 2023. The process will follow that of a real sports competition. An internationally renowned jury, representing all the sectors involved, from art to sports, from institutions to media, will select eight finalist photographs for each of the five proposed categories, totaling forty pictures. In addition to being exhibited in internationally renowned locations and on special occasions, these photographs will also become part of the “Run for Art online exhibition”. Launched in May 2021, the digital exhibition offers an exhibition journey available on the dedicated website for the initiative (runforart.com).
