La KabineThe OFF PHOTO Festival in Arles 2025 is reaffirming itself as a major event for photography enthusiasts, artists, and industry professionals. A true space for creative freedom and inclusivity, it highlights innovative projects, offering a unique platform for contemporary creation. The OFF Arles Festival is the perfect opportunity to discover new talents while celebrating the work of established artists.
The Révélation Saif x La Kabine 2025 Award aims to spotlight photographic projects that have not yet had the opportunity to be exhibited to the public or recognized in the photography industry. This award is designed to support emerging artists and provide significant visibility to underrepresented works while contributing to the enrichment of contemporary photography.
This award seeks to give a chance to talents who are still unknown to the general public while valuing their artistic approach.
For the 2025 edition, the SAIF Board of Directors has decided to support an award specifically dedicated to emerging creation. This award will be presented through a screening during the opening week (July 7–12, 2025) of the Rencontres d’Arles and the OFF PHOTO Festival. The primary commitment is to ensure that this award remains accessible to everyone by offering a total prize fund of €5,000, including €2,000 for the award recipient and €3,000 distributed among the 30 finalists.
