Today in Uzhgorod, another outdoor photo exhibition opened. It was the conclusion of the photo contest "City accents", which lasted from July 15 to August 25.
Out of the 174 works submitted for the competition by 24 photographers, 24 photographs were selected for the final exhibition. The photo competition organizers – Uzhgorod City Council, the Synevyr studio and the "Mustard Seed" emphasize that the choice of the finalists was very difficult. Many worthy works of really great skill and artistic quality were left out. However, the organizers wanted above all to show the beauty of our city to the residents and guests of Uzhgorod. Therefore, they chose the most "representative" works. As a result, the final exhibition, which opened in the "Mustard Seed" lane, features 24 works of 15 authors.
It will take place for at least a month here, so everybody will have time to see the works, from among which the jury determined the winners.
The jury, which had gathered for the final selection around an hour before the opening of the exhibition, consisted of known masters: Serhiy Hudak (the chairman), Oleksiy Popov and Carl Smutko. And even though Mr. Carl deliberately did not vote for the works of his son and pupil Oleksandr, the jury gave Oleksandr Smutko the grand prize. His fascinating night panorama of the city, with stormy blue sky above it can not leave anyone indifferent.
The second prize went to Olesya Bilkey.
The third prize went to Olga Mykyta. All winners received prizes from the organizers.
The winner in the "Video Clip" category is Yuriy Ryezvy from Mukachevo.
The Audience Award went to an emotional, relevant, and poignant work of Anastasia Nozhka.
All winners received certificates from Uzhgorod City Council presented by the deputy mayor Yaroslav Shafar. The city council also gave gratitudes to the organizers of the photo contest: the Synevyr Studio (Oleksandr Hereshko, Victor Tsoklan), representatives of the gallery, which exhibits the works, and judges who chose the best.
Here are the works that they chose. And also some photos and videos from the opening.
