9th Jalón Ángel Photography Awards ends 28 May 2023
Deadline: 28 May 2023. The Jalón Ángel Photograph Archive, belonging to Grupo San Valero and guarded by San Jorge University are organising the 9th Jalón Ángel Photography Awards.
Ángel Hilario García de Jalón Hueto (1898-1976), better known as Jalón Angel, was one of the most prominent figures of portrait photography in Spain during his 50 years of professional career. This photographer, who had a great social and human impact, began his early training in Logroño and perfected it in the first decade of the twentieth century, first in Lyon and then in Paris. In 1926, he settled in Zaragoza where he combined his most personal and creative photography, specialising in travel and urban and natural landscape, with his portrait work.
Entries must belong to one of the following genres:
– Portrait: spontaneous or posed, the subject of the photograph is one person or various (group portrait), portraits of animals, objects or plants are not permitted.
