Established to commemorate the career of Ian Parry, a photojournalist who died covering the Romanian Revolution for the Sunday Times in 1989, the Ian Parry Scholarship provides a series of awards to two emerging photographers every year. This year’s scholarship, which commemorates the 30th anniversary of Parry’s death, is divided into two categories — the Sunday Times Award for Achievement and The Canon Award for Potential. Winners of both are awarded $3,500 toward a project, equipment loans from Canon and a feature in The Sunday Times Magazine, among other benefits.
The scholarship is open to any photographer under the age of 24, or any photographer enrolled in a full-time photography course. Participants are invited to submit a portfolio and a clear proposal for a project. The deadline for submissions is July 5, 2019.
Judges for this year’s competition include photojournalist and war photographer Giles Duley. The winner of the Award for Potential will be mentored by Jonas Bendiksen, who won the Ian Parry Scholarship in 2002.
