Following the legendary success of our last year’s photography contest, we warmly invite you, professional and amateur photographers, to participate in this year’s photography contest: “Ode to the Hen!”

Surely no other domesticated animal is as important as the hen. Unassuming, resilient, grateful. The immense value of her “fruit” — the egg — is deeply rooted in the consciousness of our species. How many have survived because of it during times of war and famine? And when she grows old and no longer lays, she still provides her delicious and nourishing soup.

And yet, no one has ever sung the praises of the hen! She has not inspired our poets or storytellers. She doesn’t take center stage in our folk songs or fairy tales. Nor have our painters or sculptors immortalized her! Even our ancient ancestors, who left nothing unremarked, did not give her particular attention!

Because injustice remains injustice as long as it is tolerated, we have decided to dedicate this year’s summer photography contest to this unsung heroine — this Cinderella of rural life, this humble super-star: the hen!
