IPA FAMILY OF MAN Honorable Mention Tony Corocher

IPA 2016 Oneshot Competition: Family of Man – 2 Honorable Mentions for the 2 photos sent

I’m pleased to announce that I’ve received 2 Honorable Mentions for the 2 photos I sent to the “2016 Oneshot Competition: Family of Man” by IPA (International Photography Awards – Los Angeles). These images are also part of my ongoing Project “Beauty In Hell: Beauty over Drama”.

An international distinguished panel of Jurors has selected the winning images. I am very glad to announce that both images I sent were awarded with an Honorable Mention
1. “Power Rangers. Laughing from the heart”. Part of my photo-essay “SONS OF THE MONKS: Children left Behind” (https://www.tonycorocher.com/sons-of-monks-children-left-behind/)
2. “Homescape… Traditional and modern”. Part of my photo-essay “PORTRAITS OF STRENGH: Ethnic Women in North Vietnam”. (https://www.tonycorocher.com/portraits-of-strength-women-in-ethnic-vietnam/).

In 1939 Edward Steichen was given the assignment to curate a show for the Museum of Modern Art, in New York City.  He asked 30 photographers including Cartier Bresson, Eugene Smith, and Dorothea Lange, to document the common links of humanity worldwide. Steichen asked the photographers to photograph the commonalities of Birth, Childhood, Love, marriage, and Death

This year IPA takes inspiration from the Family of Man, to document parallel circumstances in the world today, which produced those iconic works.
