illy issimo (Ilko Coffee International) and the MFA Photography, Video and Related Media Department at the School of Visual Arts (SVA) are pleased to announce AuthentiCity – Revealing Purity and Authenticity in Urban Life – a photography contest for SVA’s photography students and alumni. This exciting contest aims to find talented emerging photographers whose unique vision documents the dynamic nature of contemporary urban life.
DESCRIPTION:
The contest will proceed in three stages:

2.) Five semi-finalists will be selected from these entrants to receive a commission of $3000 to complete a body of work over the summer that further addresses the theme of the contest. A selection of the finalists’ work will be exhibited in New York City in the fall of 2010. The venue and date for this exhibition are TBA.
3.) One finalist will be selected based upon his or her completed work and will receive a $10,000 commission from Ilko Coffee International/illy issimo.
ENTRY FEE: None
ELIGIBILITY: This contest is only open to SVA photography students and alumni. All students and alumni from the MFA Photo, Video and Related Media Department, BFA Photography Department and MPS Digital Photography Department are eligible.
