The launch exhibition of the 17th International Garden Photographer of the Year (IGPOTY) competition will return to Kew Gardens this coming February.

In February 2024, IGPOTY touring exhibition 17 will launch at Kew and will feature a curated selection of higher placed winning photographs that were entered into Competition 17 in 2023.

Some of the categories on display will include returning favourites such as; ‘The Beauty of Plants’, ‘Beautiful Gardens’, ‘Trees, Woods, and Forests’, and ‘Wildlife in the Garden’. The most recent addition ‘The World of Fungi’ will be on display, as well as the environmental category ‘MPB Plants & Planet’ and the artistic category ‘7IM Abstract Views’.

The ’Portfolios’ category will be represented which is run in association with The Royal Photographic Society. Also on display will be the higher placed winning photographs from the ‘Captured at Kew’ special award and Kew is the only venue to exhibit these prints. 

The next IGPOTY Competition (18) will open for entries later in February 2024. To find out more, please visit: www.igpoty.com
