The eidolon Grant aims to identify phenomena, collections, histories, practices, and trends within vernacular photography with the aim of offering new interpretations and analyses.
The goal is to equally represent the vast range of past everyday photographic practices while also raising awareness of the significance of contemporary image culture. They aim to highlight how historical photographic traditions continue to shape society and visual communication today, while exploring the impact of emerging digital and social media practices on current visual trends and societal narratives.
This year, the two categories of the eidolon Grant reflect this commitment:
- Contemporary everyday photographic cultures
- Everyday photographs of the past
eidolon centre for Everyday Photography is calling artists, academics, enthusiasts, and professionals, who have a passion and serious interest in vernacular photography and everyday imaging for the eidolon Grant 2025.
Amount to be distributed in the two categories combined is 25,000 EUR. The amount of the grant can be freely spent on the implementers’ fees, travel expenses, preparation and production costs, and the payment of the involved partners.
