AUTHENTIC PICTURES AND STORIES FROM THE PAST YEAR, REGION BY REGION

World Press Photo has made perhaps the biggest change in its seven-decade history this year by making the pre-selection of the world's most prestigious competition regional, resulting in a more meaningful assessment of local events. From now on, entries from Africa, Asia, Europe, North and Central America, South America, South East Asia and Oceania will be judged separately.

Micro-Folie Digital Museum

Louvre, d'Orsay, Picasso Museum and many more in the digital collection of the Micro-Folie museum

For those who think that visiting digital exhibitions is not the real thing, they haven't seen the Micro-Folie mobile museum. Institutions such as the Louvre, the Pompidou Centre in Paris and the Picasso Museum have all been involved in the creation of this great French initiative. High-resolution digitised photographs, 3D photos and video recordings of thousands of amazing artefacts have been uploaded to the digital museum and can be viewed by anyone who visits Micro-Folie. The images can be enlarged at will to reveal details that would otherwise be easily hidden.

Our common time ’89-90

1989 was one of the most significant years in Hungary’s 1100-year history.

Due to opposition movements in both Hungary and the surrounding Socialist countries, as well as Gorbachev’s reforms in the USSR, the dictatorship of the Kádár regime had been loosening for decades – and reached its breaking point in 1989, bringing forth extraordinary changes in politics, society and lifestyle.
