Landskrona FotoLandskrona Foto Festival celebrates its 10th edition in 2026. Over the years, the festival has established a strong tradition of exhibiting photography in outdoor settings. It is a core part of our mission to take photography beyond cultural institutions and bring it closer to the local community.
For our 2026 edition, we invite artists and photographers to submit projects for our outdoor exhibition programme, responding to the theme Displacement.
Displacement can be understood in many ways---being forced to leave one's home, navigating political upheaval, or feeling out of place in a rapidly changing world. It may arise from conflict, climate change, economic hardship, or broader societal shifts. It can also refer to internal, emotional, or existential states of dislocation.
We welcome a wide range of photographic approaches---documentary, conceptual, archival, or experimental.
Selected projects will be exhibited in public spaces throughout Landskrona, including our specially designed outdoor structures located in parks, city squares, and other urban environments. Artists may propose works that fit our existing formats or suggest new, innovative ways of presenting photography in the public realm.
Images of our current outdoor display structures can be found below.
We look forward to receiving your interpretations of Displacement, and to marking our 10th edition by continuing to make photography accessible, engaging, and relevant in public space.
What winners receive
Exhibition as part of Landskrona Foto Festival, 4 – 20 September 2026
€900 artist fee.
Production costs for the outdoor exhibition are fully covered by the festival
