LAUNCH OF THE 10TH EDITION OF THE "A PHOTOGRAPHER FOR EURAZEO" COMPETITION AND CREATION OF A NEW AWARD DEDICATED TO YOUNG PHOTOGRAPHERS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE ENSP OF ARLES

Paris, June 27, 2019

Eurazeo today launches the tenth edition of its annual photo competition.

This competition, which has rewarded the works of professional photographers since 2010, offers prize money of €10,000. To mark its tenth anniversary, Eurazeo invites photographers to tell a story that is of particular interest to them through a series of twelve photos.

Love stories, stories of the past, funny stories, storie with a big S, never-ending stories, tall stories...

whatever: "TELL US STORIES".

For the tenth year of this award and within a few days of the 50th edition of the Rencontres Photographiques competition in Arles, Eurazeo has also announced the creation of a new competition called "Eurazeo pour la Jeune Création photographique" in partnership with the Arles Ecole Nationale Supérieure de la Photographie (French National School of Photography - ENSP). Students and young graduates from the school are invited to dwell on the same theme as the main "Grand Prix" competition. The young photographer, whose series will be singled out by the jury comprising professional photographers and the Director of the ENSP, will receive prize money of €5,000.

The two prizewinners' works will be exhibited in early 2020 at the Hôtel de l'Industrie, 4 place Saint- Germain-des-Près, in Paris. They will also feature in the Group's communication media and be displayed at its Paris and New York offices.

As highligted by Virginie Morgon, Chairwoman of the Eurazeo Executive Board: "For the tenth year of our photo competition, we sought to combine our long-standing support for photography and our commitment to education and equal opportunity. Since 2015, we have developed innovative and life-changing educational projects with associations and teachers. All our Group's employees attach particular importance to both these strong and defining commitments. The launch of this new prize dedicated to young photographers in partnership with an internationally renowned school will enable us to support tomorrow's talents. We invite them to be bold and creative, values that our company holds dear!"
