Photo Book Grant Program

Conceived and organized by Eyes Wide Open (the cultural production arm of The Eyes label) with the support of the French Ministry of Culture and SAIF, the Eyes Wide Open 1st Photo Book Bursary program is aimed at photographers  who wish to propose a first book project with the support of an independent French publisher.

The Eyes Wide Open 1st Photo Book Grants program offers to support 3 book projects by a photographer and his/her publisher, each with €5,000.

It is divided into 3 categories, each meeting a specific need :

– SAIF grant for a French photographer or a photographer living in France
– Grant for a woman photographer of any nationality
– Grant for a photographer from a southern territory (Africa, Caribbean, Southeast Asia, Latin America, Middle East)
