The CCP Documentary Photography Award is a biennial showcase of contemporary Australian documentary photography. This exhibition, the eighth CCP Documentary Photography Award, demonstrates the breadth of contemporary approaches to documentary practice from traditional black and white narratives through to vibrant colour, all of which have been achieved without digital manipulation. The CCP Documentary Photography Award is open to established and aspiring photographers using either analogue or digital cameras, entries are ‘judged blind’ by a panel of experts. The judges for 2011 were Dr Isobel Crombie, Senior Curator, Photography, National Gallery of Victoria and renowned artist Bill Henson.
