Deloitte’s
Photo Grant
2023

Deloitte’s Photo Grant, established in 2023, intends to become one of the world’s most important awards for photography within the contemporary art arena.

Photography plays a central and crucial role in the production of contemporary art.

Deloitte Photo Grant, under the artistic direction of Denis Curti, aims to stimulate social reflection and, based on intellectual awareness, foster the concept of connections by awarding two grants with a combined value of €60,000.

Through this initiative, the Deloitte Foundation seeks to provide concrete support for contemporary cultural production and serve as an observatory of the emerging art scene.

What does being connected mean today? How do we perceive connections – whether human, professional, economic or environmental?

Photographers are called upon to give their personal interpretation and reading of a concept that can be so broad as to sometimes be hollow. Therefore, the challenge is to lend it substance, portray it, exemplify it, and manifest it through image-based narration, which has always underpinned the narration of reality.
