BLUR PHOTO O11
BLUR PHOTO is an annual exhibition of international creative photography established to celebrate the diversity and beauty of photography while promoting BLUR magazine’s photographers from all over the world.
In line with BLUR magazine’s editorial policy, the exhibition concept of BLUR PHOTO is based on thematic and technical diversity, composition excellence, high aesthetic value, and the strong emotional impact of the work.
Each BLUR PHOTO exhibition presents a selection of photography artworks published in BLUR magazine during the previous year as voted on by a jury of photography experts.
In 2011, from June 9 – July 6, the first edition entitled BLUR PHOTO 011 will take place in Zagreb, Croatia. It will present a selection of works published in BLUR magazine’s 2010 issues, selected by:

One photograph from the selected work will be awarded as THE BLUR PHOTO 011 in recognition of the photo that best captures the essence of BLUR magazine.
In addition, in an emphasis of the magazine’s international character, this exhibition will trespass long distance limitations and will enable authors from different parts of world to be present at the exhibition and talk about their work through video that will be shown at the gallery.
