The International Photography Annual 3 is open to a very broad range of lens-based and photographic submissions. This is not just for ‘photographers’ and ‘photography’ but also for anyone working creatively in a visual art (or design) field with work that incorporates the lens or photographic process in some significant way, including manipulated processes.

Remember, INPHA is not a gallery exhibition. It does not require shipping works to Manifest. It is an award-winning non-profit hardcover publication with cash awards.

As with all Manifest projects, we are open to learning just what’s being done that fits within this broad scope.

Each artist/author selected for inclusion in the INPHA will receive one complimentary copy of the publication. The books produced for Manifest’s other ongoing Annuals have increased in page count and print quality each year, with the most recent publication reaching 200 pages in length. In 2011 the INDA 5 was awarded a national silver medal award from the Independent Publishers Association in their New York City ceremony and the INPHA 1 followed it with a bronze in 2013, competing with such publishers as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Whitney Museum of Art. Manifest’s books are distributed to bookstores across the country, including museum bookstores, and are available through Amazon.com as well as at Manifest Gallery and on the Manifest website. Arts patrons, artists, professors, and art students around the world collect our publications, and our books are often used to supplement course work in college level classes.
