Since 1979, the Smith Fund says that it has awarded over $1.3 million to photographers for their past work or proposed projects, following in“The W. Eugene Smith Grant in Humanistic Photography is presented annually to a photographer whose past work and proposed project, as judged by a panel of experts, follows the tradition of W. Eugene Smith’s dedicated compassion and humanistic approach to his subjects throughout his career as a photographic essayist,” the Smith Fund says.
The goal of the grant is to assist Werning in completing the final chapter of her long-term project and allow her to return to the towns she visited early on and document the impact of globalization on local traditions while at the same time celebrating the resilience and beauty of their heritage.“News that I had received this year’s W. Eugene Smith Grant arrived just when I was about to conclude this personal project due to a lack of funds!” Werning says.
