Agora Gallery is pleased to announce The Chelsea International Photography Competition Exhibition, a juried exhibition of contemporary photographs by local and international artists. This is the 5th edition of our annual photography exhibition, which provides a select group of photographers with the opportunity to showcase their work in the heart of Chelsea, New York’s premier art district.

The winners were handpicked among hundreds of international and local applicants by an esteemed panel of jurors. The judging committee is comprised of Angela Ferreira and David Campany.

She has lectured on contemporary photography throughout Europe and Latin America and curated exhibitions internationally, including the Beijing Photography Biennale and the Photography Museum in Fortaleza, Brazil. Currently, she is a professor at Escola de Comunicação Arte e Cultura in São Paulo, Brazil. Campany is a curator, writer, broadcaster, editor, and educator, whose prior collaborations include MoMA, Tate, Centre Pompidou, International Center of Photography, Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, and many other institutions worldwide.
