Featured as part of the Monat der Fotografie-Off Berlin 2025 festival, the BBA MPB Award: Perspectives in Diversity exhibition celebrates artistic excellence through the lens of diversity, bringing together three distinct voices—Willi Dorner (Austria), Nora Obergeschwandner (Austria), and Norberto Pezzotta (Italy). Their works explore the intersections of identity, urban transformation, human intimacy, and evolving perceptions of beauty, offering a dynamic dialogue on contemporary society.

Willi Dorner’s practice traverses the realms of performance and visual arts, engaging with urban landscapes to examine how architecture and identity intertwine. Nora Obergeschwandner’s photographic series In Between presents a poignant exploration of human relationships, intimacy, and attachment. Rooted in personal experience, the project navigates the emotional landscapes of love, vulnerability, and self-discovery. Norberto Pezzotta challenges conventional aesthetics with Augmented Unreality, a project interrogating beauty in the age of artificial intelligence.

Together, these artists offer a multifaceted exploration of diversity—not only in representation but also in artistic approach and conceptual depth. BBA MPB Award: Perspectives in Diversity invites viewers to engage with themes of transformation, emotional depth, and the evolving narratives of human identity in an era of rapid change.

An official sponsor of the BBA Photography Prize 2024, MPB, presented the MPB Award for the third time in a row. Under the theme “Diversity”, one of the brand core values, 3 of the nominees are presented. The ongoing relationship between BBA and MPB highlights their missions to support photographers in every stage of their careers.
