About HumanKind

Throughout history, every generation of theorists, scientists and artists has
grappled with the ultimate quest: to understand and define the human condition.

Now our turn has come: We are looking for images that encompass the experiences
of being human in a social, cultural, and personal context. Images that tell
the story of what it means to be part of HumanKind - the bad, the good, the
beautiful, the ugly, the exotic, the mundane, and everything in between.

Drawn from online submissions, 120 images will be selected and exhibited at The
powerHouse Arena in Dumbo, Brooklyn.
HumanKind - presented by the New York Photo Festival - will be on show from
December 17 to January 20.
