For every work selected for exhibition, a separate exhibition contract will be drafted. As an alternative to sending your printed work in via courier or mail, local production of prints via a sponsorship is possible for free for selected participants.

Among the finalists, three cash prizes (EUR 5,000, EUR 2,000, EUR 1,000) and a residency prize will be awarded. All finalists will also receive the annual catalogue free of charge.

Alternatively, selected participants are given the opportunity to produce prints of their series free of charge by a photo lab and have it sent to the project manager for free. After completion of all the exhibitions of the competition year, the produced prints will be sent to these participants on request at their own expense. If the prints are not picked up by the participants six months after completion of all exhibitions or sent to them on request, they will become the property of the Kunstagentur Dresden.

The award ceremony will take place at the exhibition opening of the Finalist Exhibition. Prize winners who cannot be present will be informed by e-mail.
