In this summer’s call for submissions, 161 photographs from 72 artists were received and evaluated by the editorial board. From the submitted works, 46 photographs from 26 artists were selected for publication in the magazine. This season, Mr. Navid Maghami was chosen as the “Artist of Summer 2024“, and a photograph by Mr. Amin Alkasir was named the “Selected Work of Summer 2024“.
A notable aspect of the selection process was the diverse perspectives of the jury members, which led to a wide range of works being eligible for publication in the magazine. As such, the submitted works were evaluated and chosen based on aesthetic and semantic criteria from different parts of the world, avoiding biased selections. We consider this diversity one of our strengths, as it allows us to feature a more varied range of works and provide opportunities for a greater number of artists to be seen.
In this issue, two articles by Professor Bartosz Posacki and Stephanie Johnson, members of the magazine’s editorial board, are presented alongside two articles by guest contributors Dr. Amir Beshkeni and Mohammad Tajaran.
