Les gagnants seront annoncés à Amsterdam en avril.


































































































































Avant la remise des prix prévue pour le 16 avril prochain à Amsterdam, World Press Photo, le plus grand concours dédié au photo-journalisme, a dévoilé les quelques 130 photos finalistes de cette 63ème édition. Le jury du prestigieux concours, présidé cette année par le Sud-Africain Lekgetho Makola, directeur de l’école Market Photo Workshop de Johannesburg, les a sélectionnées parmi les plus de 74 000 clichés soumis tout au long de cette année.
Les photos déjà révélées permettent de faire une rapide rétrospective des évènements marquant de l’année 2019 : des révoltes violentes à Hong Kong et en Algérie aux feux de forêts destructeurs en Australie et aux États-Unis en passant par les ouragans qui ont frappé les Caraïbes ou encore des sujets plus légers comme les grandes manifestations sportives ou des photos environnementales. En tout, huit catégories classent les photos : ”sujets contemporains”, “infos générales”, “environnement”, “nature”, “projets au long cours”, “portraits”, “actualité” et “sport”.
Jetez un œil aux photos retenues dans la galerie ci-dessus et rendez-vous sur le site du World Press Photo pour en apprendre plus sur les conditions dans lesquelles elles ont été prises. Rendez-vous le 16 avril prochain pour connaître les grandes gagnantes de chaque catégories. En attendant, découvrez les lauréats de l’édition 2019.
