"Vite in Viaggio 2018": a new edition of the "on the road" photographic contest
MAN truck & Bus Italia is again the protagonist of a socio-cultural initiative with the sponsorship of the second edition of the photographic contest "Vite in Viaggio", with the patronage of the Italian @Touring Club.
"To marry the travel experience with art and culture" this was the spring that last year had pushed MAN Truck & Bus Italia to support the birth of the photographic contest "Vite in Viaggio". Traveling is an experience that belongs to MAN as to its customers, who every day get behind the wheel of trucks and buses. So the idea was born to ask professional photographers as well as the many photography enthusiasts to tell, through a photographic shot, the experiences and emotions that arise from a journey, of whatever nature it is. So this year too MAN Truck & Bus Italia has decided to once again be at the side of the Verona Arte e Musica cultural association to organize "Vite in Viaggio 2018", which is already in full swing with the launch of the contest and the collection of images.
This year's novelty is the patronage of an important institution such as the Italian Touring Club. A significant recognition of what has been achieved so far, which puts the organizers in charge of further responsibility to create a review that wants to gain visibility at a national level.
The terms of the regulation and the modalities of participation (in addition to the awards) are well illustrated on the portal www.viteinviaggio.eu and on the related pages Facebook and Instagram, where you can also admire the first photographs sent and the winners of the last edition. The deadline for participation is set for 28 February 2018, while the finalists will create an exhibition at the AMO museum in Verona which will be inaugurated on 28 March and will close at the beginning of June with the awarding of the winners. The exhibition at the AMO museum will also be enriched by a selection of 25 historical photographs from and selected from the Italian Touring Club archive.
Another novelty of the 2018 edition is that the Contest is divided into two sections: PRO for photographs made with any type of camera and SMART for those made with smartphones, tablets or other mobile devices. For each section there are three categories: Mete, Means and Emotions. Furthermore, two special prizes will be awarded by the Italian Touring Club and MAN Truck & Bus Italia. Participants will be asked for a description of the image to know, not only the technical data, but also the motivations and emotions that led to the shot and its selection.
