United Photo Press has set itself the task of bringing together the creative potential of artists from all countries, regardless of ethnicity, religion or gender, engaging in dialogue with the many different motives, techniques and materials. Photographic works as well as works of sculpture and painting open up pictorial spaces of lines, structures and color, in which emotions and sensuality as well as breaks and the search for new expressive possibilities become visible. The artists presented here place their creativity at the service of a creative departure and are guided by attention, curiosity and interest in combining their individual artistic expression with the sublime goal of international understanding
The goals of the United Photo Press Creative Artists are supported by the American Institute of Arts and the University of Queensland in Australia. In 2010, United Photo Press was elected a United Nations partner for the International Year of Biodiversity.
