This new prize was initiated In recognition of photography as a leading contemporary cultural medium, by the Shpilman family and the Shpilman Institute for Photography together with the Israel Museum, with the joint objective of cultivating original work in the field of photography.
The prize, in the amount of 45,000 USD, is awarded every two years based on the review and selection by an international jury comprised of five acclaimed professionals.
