I’m not a fan of Getty Images<\/em>, but their grants certainly do support some great photography, as you can see from the winners of the 2013 grants<\/a> for editorial photography.\u00a0 Some of the five winners are very familiar names – Eugene Richands<\/a>, for many years a member of Magnum<\/em> (he joined Magnum in 1978 and left twice, in\u00a01994 and 2006), of VII<\/em> from 2006-8 and Getty’s own Reportage<\/em> from 2010-12.\u00a0 and Tomas van Houtryve<\/a> of VII<\/em>. I wrote here a while ago about his book Laos: Open Secret<\/a>, published on Blurb<\/a>, and earlier about his use of Flattr – and earlier still about his photography on another site.<\/p>\n

Samuel James<\/a>, whose earlier project Lagos, Area Boys<\/a> won the\u00a0 2010 Alexandra Boulat Award for Photojournalism<\/a>\u00a0 also has a VII connection -as part of that award the project as sydicated by them. More recently he was featured on the Lens blog<\/a> and picked as one of BJP’s 20 photographers<\/a> to watch in 2013.<\/p>\n

Matt Eich<\/a> has also previously won many awards and\u00a0grants from the the Aaron Siskind Foundation, The National Press Photographer’s Association, ShootQ\/Pictage, The Alexia Foundation, and\u00a0National Geographic Magazine<\/i>. He was one of the photographers in PDN<\/strong>‘s ‘Top Thirty<\/em>‘ for 2010.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0 relative newcomer is Marco Gualazzini<\/a>, and Italian who started work as a photographer for his local daily paper in 2004.\u00a0 2013 has been a good year for him as he gained First Prize at the Premio Internazionale Marco Luchetta in 2013 and a Silver Medal at PX3 Prix De La Photographie De Paris\u00a0 before receiving this grant for his project M23- Kivu: a region under siege.<\/em><\/p>\n
