Introducing Gomma new contest dedicated to black and white photography.

With 20 years’ experience in the field is our time to launch a contest for monochrome photography.

The winners will receive cash prizes, certificates and benefit from enormous world-wide exposure.

To celebrate the Finalists bodies of work we will publish a Limited-Edition hardcover photo book that will be distributed worldwide.

We at Gomma have continuously been working with publishers and curators to suggest and promote photographers. These professionals are always looking for artists to represent and invest in.

The finalists and winners from previous Gomma contests have profited from both our effort and know-how and went to grow their careers to a higher level, both professionally and artistically.
