We are thrilled to announce the 208 Selected Authors who will be featured in our most significant publication of the year, “PLAY! – Let the Game Begin.” This monumental book is currently in production and will be available for sale worldwide.

A special thank you to the 643 photographers who participated in the initiative!

But that’s not all: there will be an additional curatorial process for the PLAY! collective exhibition to bring the theme to life in a whole different experience. Selected photos will be showcased in our largest collective exhibition at the prestigious Veruda Hall, located in the heart of the historic city center of Trieste, Italy. This exhibition will be a highlight of the Trieste Photo Days – International Festival of Photography, taking place from October 24-27 2024. Save the date to experience this incredible event in person!

These talented authors will be joined by the world-renowned Australian photographer Adam Pretty, a celebrated sports and advertising photographer and Director/DP, best known for his stunning photos at the Olympic Games. Adam Pretty will be present at the festival, and you will have the unique opportunity to meet him at the project presentation and exhibition!

Congratulations to all the photographers who have become newly published authors. This is a significant milestone to add to your artist résumé and a testament to your outstanding talent and dedication to the craft.
