© Matthieu Bühler – “Taiwan nights" – 2023
In Partnership with our friends from Jägermeister, we invite emerging photographers and visual artists to submit images that explore the visual world of the night.
We are looking for works that engage with light, movement, atmosphere, intimacy, and the energy that appears when the day lets go.
Whether captured on a crowded dance floor, in a quiet street, or somewhere in between, the focus is less on the setting than on the feeling.
The open call welcomes lens-based photography in all forms, including analog and digital.
- € 2,500 in prize money
- A feature on the Fotografiska Emerging platform
- Inclusion in the 2026 Jägermeister Sensory Voyage Box as a limited-edition mini-poster

Karl Hab is a Paris-born photographer whose work moves fluidly across aviation, architecture, fashion, and contemporary culture. His photography is defined by a refined visual language, where precision, balance, and clarity shape each frame. Through clean compositions and a strong sense of structure, he captures the extraordinary within the everyday—whether documenting aircraft in motion, exploring the graphic rhythm of urban architecture, or transforming fleeting city moments into striking visual narratives. In recent projects, Hab has expanded his practice into fashion and heels photography, bringing a distinctive perspective that merges elegance with spontaneity. His approach highlights subtle gestures, textures, and details that often go unnoticed, turning them into central elements of the image. By combining bold geometry, minimalist color palettes, and a contemporary sense of timing, his work creates a dialogue between movement, design, and atmosphere. Drawing inspiration from the visual energy of Paris and the dynamics of travel and modern culture, Hab’s photography balances documentary observation with artistic intention. The result is a body of work that feels both precise and expressive—where structure meets intuition, and ordinary scenes are elevated into quietly powerful images.
