The Royal Photographic Society (RPS) has announced the 2022 call for entries for the 164th edition of the International Photography Exhibition (IPE 164).

It’s the world’s longest running photography exhibition and celebrates contemporary photography from across the globe.

The open call welcomes submissions from new, emerging, and established photographers of all ages and working in any subject or genre.

New approaches, alternative photographic processes and experimental work is encouraged.

Selected photographers will be offered exclusive opportunities. A £4000 prize fund will be awarded to standout entrants, including the IPE Award, Under 30s Award and a £1250 commission to create new work.

Then 100 images, chosen by a guest selection panel, will form a group exhibition at the Royal Photographic Society, Bristol, England, in January 2023.

Selected photographers will also be featured in the award-winning RPS Journal and across the RPS digital channels.

Entries close at 23:59 BST on 17 May 2022.
For more information, and details of how to enter, just visit the RPS International Photography Exhibition 164.
Entry is free for one image, and up to four images can be submitted for £18-£30, as a series or as individual images. Images submitted before 1 April 2022 will be entered into an early-bird prize draw to win a signed copy of Ioanna Sakellaraki’s photo-book The Truth is in the Soil.
