Form Photo Award 2026

Form Gallery is a Basel-based photography platform founded by Dimitri Bogachuk. The annual Form Photo Award is dedicated to contemporary image-making, with no thematic restriction. Both single images and series are accepted.

The structural premise is positioning: the top 5 winners exhibit at photo basel — the international photography fair held during Art Basel Week each June. Selected work reaches the audience that travels to Basel for the wider Art Basel program.

Beyond the top 5, shortlisted artists receive a digital exhibition and inclusion in the catalogue.

The 2026 jury is Sven Eisenhut-Hug (Co-Founder & Director, photo basel), Elwira Spychalska (art historian), and Dimitri Bogachuk (Form Founder).

Eligibility is open globally. Submission is through Picter with 1–8 images. Fee is €35. The 2026 deadline was March 29; results announced March 30, 2026.
