2011 marked the advent of the Norwegian Journal of Photography (NJP)<\/em>, providing an arena for photographers to develop and display the full range of their projects. NJP offers an environment that provides encouragement and constructive criticism of works from the perspective of telling stories and building bridges between the more classic documentary photography and art photography.<\/h2>\n[\/nectar_highlighted_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#f9f9f9″ scene_position=”center” bottom_padding=”8%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” enable_shape_divider=”true” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=”curve_asym_2″][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” animation_easing=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column_text]NJP brings together and supports selected Norwegian documentary photography projects. Our goal is to present Norwegian photography at the international level, and to cultivate the photography community domestically. We aspire to create an inspiring forum in which Norwegian photographers can show their works at the national and international levels alike. NJP is an arena in which photographers can continue to produce relevant, exciting visual stories.<\/p>\n

Following a comprehensive evaluation process, projects will be chosen for the fifth edition of NJP. During a two-year cycle, the selected photographers will receive editing assistance as well as help to apply for financial support. They will be taking part in seminars and in a master class with prominent international guest lecturers. All the photographers will also collaborate closely with NJP\u2019s editors as their projects progress.<\/p>\n

The objective of NJP has been to create a relevant, representative book of Norwegian documentary photography, showcasing the finest images, combined with powerful storytelling abilities. We encourage photographers to challenge the definition of the concept \u2018documentary photography\u2019, while striving to produce socially relevant independent narratives.<\/p>\n

Applicants for NJP should either already be working on a major photo project, or be well underway with the preparations for a project before applying for NJP. For more details, please see the web page with\u00a0the criteria for submitting<\/a>\u00a0an application.<\/p>\n

The Norwegian Journal of Photography is a project that is an extension of the\u00a0Fritt Ord<\/a>\u00a0Foundation\u2019s efforts to strengthen the position of documentary photography in Norway.<\/p>\n

The deadline for applying is Friday, 5 April 2019, and the photographers selected for NJP #5 will be announced on Friday, 3 May 2019.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#ffffff” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”4%” bottom_padding=”2%” constrain_group_2=”yes” bottom_padding_tablet=”12%” left_padding_tablet=”20vw” constrain_group_4=”yes” right_padding_tablet=”20vw” left_padding_phone=”7vw” constrain_group_6=”yes” right_padding_phone=”7vw” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”0px” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”static” advanced_gradient_angle=”65″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”advanced” gradient_type=”advanced” advanced_gradient_display_type=”linear”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”0px” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” animation_easing=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default” animation_offset=”90%”][nectar_highlighted_text scribble_color=”#ee482f” style=”scribble” scribble_shape=”basic-underline” scribble_thickness=”thick” scribble_speed=”1.3s” scribble_easing=”ease_in_out” id=”circle-highlight2″ font_line_height=”1.8″ font_size_tablet=”4vw” font_size_phone=”5vw”]\n

Fritt ord<\/strong><\/a><\/h4>\n

The Norwegian Journal of Photography is a project that is an extension of the Fritt Ord Foundation\u2019s efforts to strengthen the position of documentary photography in Norway. In 2006, the Fritt Ord Foundation called for applications for project funding for civic-minded photographers. The projects selected were carried out between 2007 and 2009. The project resulted in the exhibition \u2018Norwegian documentary photography\u2019 at the Henie Onstad Art Centre in autumn 2009 and publication of the book Norwegian documentary photography today by Forlaget Press publishing house the same year. The Fritt Ord Foundation\u2019s paramount object is to protect and strengthen freedom of expression and its terms in Norway, especially by encouraging a dynamic debate and the fearless use of free speech.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
