Competition summary:

For 27 years Photo L.A. has celebrated and brought together the photography and arts community. Photo L.A. has created a photo competition, FOCUS Photo L.A., to help provide emerging and mid career artists/photographers opportunities to broaden their career opportunities and promote their work. Through partnerships with world-renowned photography galleries, art fairs, museums, and publications, winners of past competitions have been picked up by international galleries, magazines, and have expanded their career opportunities.

For this summer's contest, the work of the top 20 finalists will be printed by A & I Fine Art + Photography and then framed by A/C Gallery and exhibited in Arles during Les Rencontres de la Photographie.
