Our Ph.D. student Lucrezia Zanardi is on the shortlist of the LUMAS Dummy Book Award 2021 with her photobook "Present Traces of a Past Existence: A Photographic Research" (2021)

Since 2015, the Rencontres d'Arles has attributed an award to help publish a dummy book.
Endowed with a €25,000 production budget, the award is open to any photographer or emerging artist using photography based on a proposal for a book that has never been published.

Experimental and innovative editorial forms receive special attention.
This year, 140 works from 32 countries were submitted.
