TORONTO.- Four leading-edge photographers,
two
Canadian and two American, will have the opportunity to win the $50,000
Grange
Prize, presented by Aeroplan and the Art Gallery of Ontario. Each year,
The
Grange Prize partners with one international art institution in an
effort to
recognize the best in Canadian and international photography — and
2010’s
partner is the Museum of Contemporary Photography (MoCP) at Columbia
College
Chicago. The Grange Prize, now in its third year, was awarded to Mexican
photographer Marco Antonio Cruz in 2009, and Winnipeg-based artist Sarah
Anne
Johnson in 2008, when the partner country was China.
