Photo Museum Ireland is delighted to present the Contemporary African Photography Prize 2024 in Gallery 1. The CAP Prize is the international award for contemporary African photography given annually since 2012 to five photographers whose works were created on the African continent, or which engage with the African diaspora. The exhibition at Photo Museum Ireland will showcase the work of the five winning artists alongside the shortlist for this prestigious award.
The five winning projects of the CAP Prize 2024 were announced on 5 July 2024 during the opening week of Les Rencontres de la Photographie Arles at MIRAGE Photobook Fair in France by a panel of 20 international judges. The winning artists are Lina Geoushy, Ahmed Khirelsid, Tshepiso Moropa, Kriss Munsya, and Farren Van Wyk..

About the Contemporary African Photography Prize:
About the Open to artists of any age and descent, the CAP Prize aims to raise the profile of African photography within the arts and to encourage a rethinking of the image of Africa. Each year five winners are selected by an internationally sourced panel of judges, enabling the promotion of African photography worldwide, raising the winners' international exposure and building a high-level network for future projects. The five winning entries are showcased in a series of exhibitions in collaboration with significant photography events and institutions in Africa and the rest of the world.
Since its inauguration by Benjamin Füglister in 2012 the number of artists’ submissions has grown to over 1000 annually, coming from up to 88 countries worldwide. The core team of the CAP Prize consists of artistic director Benjamin Füglister and development director Paul Geraghty, a former Chair of the board of Photo Museum Ireland. The team works closely with local partners and networks in Africa and internationally to promote the prize.
