First Photography Competition “Silvano Coletto” dedicated to photography of peasant traditions and rural landscapes of Veneto.
Silvano Coletto, for 60 years a passionate photographer, won numerous national photography awards in the 80s/90s and participated in an international competition, ranking among the top spots. For 20 years he experimented with the darkroom, refining black and white photography.
The photography competition will be a tool to narrate through the images and lenses of the participants, the culture and traditions of the peasant society that has characterized our territory and our history. Images are a powerful means to raise awareness in the viewer. Photography allows one to convey an idea, an emotion, through the author’s perspective, with their personal view.
Therefore, we leave it to the contestants’ creativity to interpret and narrate the theme through images in accordance with the regulations (see attachments).
The 3 best works will be awarded in each category.
Two categories:
- Youths and adults (ages 17 and up)
- Youngsters (up to 16 years old)
Deadline: Wednesday, July 2, 2025.
Free participation.
Each participant may submit up to 3 photos.
