Last week, the EMOP Arendt Award, endowed with 6,000 euros, was given to the Swedish artist duo Inka&Niklas in Luxembourg. The jury, which also chose the theme “Rethinking Nature/Rethinking Landscape”, is composed of members of the photo festival network “European Month of Photography”. The works of Inka & Niclas as well as those of the other nominated artists, Vanja Bucan (Nova Goricia/Berlin), Maria Magdalena Ianchis (Cluj/Vienna), Anastasia Mityukova (Geneva) and Danila Tkachenko (Moscow) are currently being exhibited in Luxembourg at the headquarters of law firm Arendt & Medernach and at other locations in the city in the framework of the Mois Européen de la Photographie Luxembourg. The works will be presented at the Festival Imago Lisboa in autumn 2021 and at FOTO WIEN in March 2022 in an exhibition at the festival headquarters.

We would like to congratulate the winners and nominees and thank them for their outstanding artistic work and the opportunity to show their work at the various festivals.
