We’ve all felt the thrill of stepping into an architectural ruin, a place where history whispers through crumbling walls and ancient stones. These ruins, scattered across the globe, are powerful testaments to our civilization’s past. To ensure these stories are preserved and not forgotten, we are launching an unprecedented call for photos. Our goal is to create a comprehensive photographic map of ruins from around the world and publish a book that showcases the most captivating images.
The “Atlas of Ruins” book will feature a stunning selection of the most beautiful and surprising photos from each nation, complemented by insightful texts from international scholars of visual arts, architecture, and design. We invite participants to submit one or more photos of a ruin. This contest is open to all photographers—professionals, amateurs, and anyone who has, even by chance, captured a moment of life within an architectural ruin. Share your vision and be part of this extraordinary collection.
