Food and Art – First UIA Photo Contest

Porto, is not only famous for its architecture and azulejos but also for its culinary specialities. Art and Food have had a close relationship for centuries. Artistic representations of food, drink or dish, as well as those of meal or banquet are profuse.

 

The Art Law and the Food Law Commissions jointly invite you to participate in the first photo contest organised by the UIA on the subject of “Food and Art”.

Be creative and gourmand. Put our alimentation into the spotlights. You are free to photograph whatever you wish, the only “limit” to your creativity being that your photography has a link, explicit or implicit, to what we eat or drink. The 10 best photos will be selected by a jury composed of 5 people, members of the UIA or representing the city of Porto, to be shown during the UIA Congress in Porto from October 30 to November 3, 2018.

Prize

The first prize, created by Leo Ho, chinese porcelain and ceramic master, will be presented at the Gala Dinner.
