Huge congratulations to Rene Matić for being nominated for the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize 2026 for their solo exhibition AS OPPOSED TO THE TRUTH at CCA Berlin, 8 Nov 2024 – 15 Feb 2025.

The four international artists shortlisted for the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize 2026 are: Jane Evelyn Atwood, Weronika Gęsicka, Amak Mahmoodian and Rene Matić. 

The 2026 shortlisted work features collaborative photographic projects; long-term investigative documentary photography; installations, video and sound pieces; and experimental conceptual photography. The thought-provoking, powerful shortlist explores themes of exile and memory; gender inequalities and advocacy; identity and belonging, subculture and class in contemporary life; and the shifting boundaries between photographic fact and fiction. 

The exhibition of selected work from the four artists’ shortlisted projects will be on view at The Photographers’ Gallery, London, from 6 March to 7 June 2026. It will then be on display from 3 September 2026 to 17 January 2027 at the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation in Eschborn/Frankfurt. The winner of the £30,000 Prize will be announced at an award ceremony on Thursday, 14 May at The Photographers’ Gallery, London, with each of the other shortlisted artists receiving £5,000.
