Call for Applications - ISSP International Masterclass 2018/2019

The ISSP International Masterclass is a year-long international mentorship and networking programme for emerging photographers. The programme is practice-based and runs in two thematic classes led by experienced photography tutors. During the year, 24 selected photographers (12 in each class) develop their long-term projects under the guidance of the tutors, through physical workshop sessions in Latvia and in Sicily and online feedback in between. 

The programme is meant for both self-taught photographers and recent graduates from academic programmes, who wish to pursue an extended personal project and take their practice to the next level. The Masterclass is offering the participants regular mentoring, networking and international exposure opportunities and a support structure for developing a conceptually strong body of work. 

Applications for Masterclass 2018/2019 with Peter Bialobrzeski ("A Sense of Change") and Clare Strand and Gordon MacDonald ("Answering Questions & Questioning Answers") are open until 10 January 2018. The programme will start in March 2018.
