ONWARD Compé

Thanks to all the fantastic photographers that submitted to ONWARD ’12! We are truly impressed by all of the work that came in this year, a total of 2434 photographs(!), and from all over the world too, 25 countries to be exact. Without a doubt this is the most international participation we’ve had yet.

Todd Hido is in the midst of the judging process and selected photographers will be notified by December 16th, 2011 with further instructions on delivery of their artwork for the exhibition.

Don’t forget to mark your calendars for February 11th, 2012, which is the opening reception for the ONWARD ’12 exhibition as well as the ONWARD Summit (details about the event, including the speakers, will be coming very soon).

The submission window has now officially closed. If you’re coming to the ONWARD site for the first time and you missed your chance to enter this year’s competition, fear not, ONWARD Compé ’13 isn’t too far away! Keep checking back for more updates about this year’s ONWARD, including selected photographer info, videos, and other articles.
