Opening of the exhibition of the winners of the competition. Andrey Stenin in Buenos AiresBUENOS AIRES, Jan 14Over 30 works by the winners of the 2021 Andrey Stenin International Photojournalism Contest will be shown to Argentines at the exhibition that opened in the center of Buenos Aires. The works of the best young photographers are brought to the Argentine capital for the third time. The exhibition was first held in 2019 at the Russian Center for Science and Culture. In the winter of 2020, the event took place on the site of one of the most beautiful buildings in Buenos Aires — the Retiro railway station. This year the works of the winners are also presented in the central hall of the station. The exposition includes dozens of photographs from Russia, Spain, Mexico, China, Germany, Iran and other countries.
"I really like the level of the competition, the quality and professionalism of the entries and the topics it touches on. In addition, the contest is one of the few where young photojournalists are supported", Argentine photographer, 2020 winner Bruno Serimele told RIA Novosti.
«I plan to participate in the contest in the future. Lately I've been working on the theme of the life of people with disabilities. This is the theme I would choose for future work for the contest,» he added.
October 18, 2021 Among the main ones are the COVID-19 pandemic, which has already claimed millions of lives around the globe, the May protests in Minneapolis, the environmental disaster caused by the unprecedented locust invasion in Africa and Asia in the last 25 years. «I think one of the main advantages of this competition is the wide coverage of topics: from the incredible beauty of our planet to the black abyss of human despair; from world sporting achievements to the everyday life of provincial cities. Behind each photo there is a real story, sometimes funny, sometimes sad, and sometimes tragic,» the first secretary said at the opening of the exhibition Embassy of Russia in Argentina Oleg Kolomin.» Better than a hundred words, they (photos) tell about life on Earth, about how its inhabitants struggle with difficulties and diseases, overcome themselves and difficult life circumstances, fight epidemics, natural disasters, environmental disasters, resolve complex conflicts,» he added.
