Prix Pictet 2012: Power Shortlist

The Prix Pictet is a photo competition featuring work from the world’s leading photographers devoted to environmental awareness and sustainability. The shortlist of twelve photographers was selected by a jury of journalists, curators, critics, and visual arts experts, centered around this year’s theme of power. The range of the finalists’ work conveys many meanings of the theme: from the force of destruction as seen in Rena Effendi’s Chernobyl landscapes, to the force of incarceration in Edmund Clark’s Guantanamo interiors.

Prix Pictet: Power, an exhibition of work from all finalists, is on view October 10–28 at Saachi Gallery London. Kofi Annan, Honorary Presided of the Prix Pictet, will preside over the awards ceremony, of the grand prize of CHF 100,000 (USD 108,000) as well as the Pictet Commission, tomorrow October 9.

For more information on the shortlist, as well as the Prix Pictet, visit prixpictet.com.
