World Press Photo Exhibition 2023 opens at YermilovCentre in Kharkiv, Ukraine on January 12th, 2024. Presenting the results of the foundation’s annual photo contest, the World Press Photo Exhibition showcases the best photojournalism and documentary photography of 2022.

 

The event in Ukraine is supported by the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Ukraine. Over 1700 viewers visited the exhibition in Kyiv in November 2023. After Kharkiv, the exhibition is planned to be shown in Dnipro and Odesa. 

 

The global winner of the World Press Photo 2023 contest was Ukrainian photographer Evgeniy Maloletka with his photo "Mariupol Maternity Hospital Airstrike", which he took in the besieged city in March 2022. This year's European jury was headed by Kateryna Radchenko, curator and founder of the international festival of contemporary photography Odesa Photo Days.

 

In total, the exhibition features images of all 24 regional winners from 23 countries. The 2023 World Press Photo Contest winning works represent both major news events and important moments overlooked by the mainstream media in 2022: from the devastating documentation of the war in Ukraine and historic protests in Iran, to the realities in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan, and the many faces of the climate crisis in Morocco, Australia, Peru, and Kazakhstan.
