FotoSlovo is a platform devoted to exploring the many faces of photography, from fine art and portrait to fashion, street, documentary, and travel.
What sets it apart from other publications is its focus, with each issue being dedicated to a single genre, giving space to dive deep into its nuances and explore the wide spectrum of photographic expression.
Founded by visual artist Anna Laza, FotoSlovo also organizes the annual FotoSlovo Awards (FS Awards), an international contest that highlights and unites emerging photographic talents from all over the globe. The awards culminate in a series of exhibitions across different venues in Europe, celebrating the winners and the diversity of contemporary photography in all its glory.

We’re a team of writers using our craft to spotlight art in its most honest form. RAWGUE. started as a bi-monthly editorial experiment where each issue’s theme is dictated by the submitted work, thus removing editorial bias from the equation and preserving a more raw approach. We focus on all forms of poetry: written, photographed, painted, drawn, and filmed.
