The Royal Photographic Society is delighted to announce the 2022 call for entries for the 164th edition of the International Photography Exhibition (IPE 164). The world’s longest running photography exhibition celebrates contemporary photography from across the globe.
The open call welcomes submissions from new, emerging, and established photographers of all ages and working in any subject or genre. New approaches, alternative photographic processes and experimental work is encouraged.
Selected photographers will be offered exclusive opportunities. A £4000 prize fund will be awarded to standout entrants, including the IPE Award, Under 30s Award and a £1250 commission to create new work. 100 images, chosen by a guest selection panel, will form a group exhibition at the Royal Photographic Society, UK in January 2023. Selected photographers will also be featured in the award-winning RPS Journal and across the RPS digital channels.
Entry is free for one image, and up to four images can be submitted for £18 – £30, as a series or as individual images.
Entries close at 2359 BST on 17 May 2022.
Images submitted before 1 April 2022 will be entered into an early-bird prize draw to win a signed copy of Ioanna Sakellaraki’s photobook, ‘The Truth is in the Soil’.

Evan Dawson, RPS CEO said: “The sheer breadth of photography submitted for the International Photography Exhibition from throughout the world means that our final exhibition is always thought-provoking, and at times challenging - as it should be. As the world’s longest running photography exhibition, it’s important it continues to reflect contemporary approaches and issues.”
Tim Franco, IPE 163 Award winner, said “I am really humbled that my work has been selected for the IPE Awards, especially after seeing all the amazing work that was submitted this year.”
The IPE 163 is on view at RPS Gallery, The Royal Photographic Society from 16 April to 3 July 2022.
The IPE is supported by theprintspace.
