World Press Photo Exhibition 2026

The exhibition showcases the best and most meaningful news and documentary photography of the past year, selected by an independent jury.

The 42 winning images and stories bring together diverse subjects: from war and migration to social, political, and ecological issues, and hopeful stories from all parts of the world. Together, they demonstrate how photography reveals different perspectives and brings complex stories closer.
