Southern and East African photographers and video makers can participate in a contest.

The contest is organized by the National Gallery of Zimbabwe in partnership with Gwanza Arts.

Photographers and video makers are invited to submit works on the theme of "Pimp My Combi," as a marker of vernacular aesthetics and cultural codes, as well as a vehicle defining both urban landscape and social space throughout Africa.

Bringing together for the first time photography, video and sound installations, Gwanza 2011 proposes to look at the combi (or minibus) as a marker of vernacular aesthetics and cultural codes, as well as a vehicle defining both urban landscape and social space throughout Africa.

The deadline is July 18.
