The dotART and Exhibit Around APS associations, creators of the Trieste Photo Days international festival of photography, are launching an open call for the third volume of the Mythography editorial project. The call is open to everyone. Registration for the call is free.

The Mythography editorial project is a series of collective photographic volumes freely inspired by Greek and Roman mythology, which will be released annually, each dedicated to a group of deities who will represent the thematic guidelines of each book.
The Mythography III volume, due out in 2023, will focus on the figures of Diana, Minerva and Ceres, therefore respectively on the themes of Nature, animals and non-anthropised landscapes, generation and birth, lunar landscapes, arts and crafts, crafts; weaving and manufacturing of garments; products of human ingenuity; weapons and armies (not war reports), agricultural life, men and animals, famine, death and rebirth of vegetation; unearthly bliss.
The book will be edited and introduced by Enrico Medda, Professor of Greek Literature at the University of Pisa, who has already worked as a scientific consultant on the first and second volume of the series.
Only the selected works will become part of a prestigious printed volume that will be presented during the Trieste Photo Days 2023 festival (end of October).
A selection of photos and/or projects will become part of the Trieste Photo Days 2023 festival catalogue.
A selection of the best photos could be exhibited in an international collective exhibition at the end of October 2023 as part of Trieste Photo Days 2023.
Participation in the Call is free, as is the presence in the book in case of selection and participation in the exhibition at Trieste Photo Days.
Only the selected authors will be contacted by the Exhibit Around staff by September 2023. There are no contributions to expenses to become part of the project.
The authors published in the book will be entitled to a special discount valid for the purchase of 1 copy of the volume (free copies are not provided, unless otherwise specified).

Exhibit Around will choose the Best Author of the project and the Honorable Mentions among the Selected, who will be awarded with a medal during Trieste Photo Days 2023 (end of October).
The call is addressed to photographers interested in submitting single photos and/or projects/portfolios/series freely inspired by a theme of their choice among those represented by the deities of the Greek/Latin pantheon Diana, Minerva and Ceres:
Each author is free to infuse his works with his own stylistic style, as well as to choose the type of photography that is most congenial to him. It is possible to submit works for more than one theme.
Each photographer can upload up to 20 individual works and up to 3 projects/portfolios consisting of a minimum of 3 photos and a maximum of 20 photos.
In the Portfolio section, to be sure that the order of the photos is correct, add the numbers in the desired sequence to the file name (e.g. “filename03.jpg”, “08filename.jpg”, …).
Each photographer retains the moral rights and intellectual property rights to his or her entries. Each author grants the dotART and Exhibit Around APS associations the non-exclusive right to use the winning/selected images to promote/publicise the non-profit activities of the association, subject to official communication to the author (whose name will always be attributed to the work).
