The photographers shortlisted for the BBA Photography Prize 2021 convinced the public with the talent, creativity and diversity reflected by their artworks. From socio-critical landscape photographies merging urban habitats and landscapes by the German photographer Andreas Kremer, over conceptual photography questioning domestic violence by French photographer and architect Camille Gharbi, to Russian-born Photographer Kristina Varaksina, whose strongly symbolic work is an exploration of the psyche of women. One artist particularly impressed the jury & the viewers due to his work’s simultaneous harshness and vulnerability: Danish photographer Jens Juul won the 1st prize with his black and white photo series „Six degrees of Copenhagen“.
Now in its 4th consecutive year, the BBA Photography Prize honours talented photographers. Together with an international jury, BBA Gallery has selected 24 photographers for the shortlist, whose works were shown in a joint exhibition in the Kühlhaus Berlin from November 26 - December 12 2021.
