With great pleasure we present the best images of the 34th FIAP Black & White Biennial. The images published here is a sample of the quality and diversity of works presented by the participating federations. Photographic art is an international concept and with 40 participating countries representing the 5 continents reaffirms the validity and interest in black and white photography. The Monochrome Biennial always has a very special interest. This year even more, it is presented for the first time in the African continent.

Organizing a Biennial represents an important challenge. Thanks to the Photographic Society of South Africa (PSSA) who has done it with care and competence, also the jury and all the federations that sent their works contributed to the success of this event. A special congratulation deserves Scotland who has won the World Cup with a collection of exceptional individual quality and coherence.
