Meet the Aimia AGO Photography Prize shortlist

Aimia AGO Photography Prize artists are ready for their close-ups

Four artists up for $50,000 prize to give a talk in Toronto

On Dec. 1, one of the four shortlisted candidates for this year's Aimia AGO Photography Prize will be grinning for the camera — one that's not their own. That's the date when the winner of the $50,000 award will be announced; in the meantime, visitors to the website, and the exhibition at the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto, which opens tonight, can vote for their favourite of the four international artists. (Voting begins in person today, and online on Sept. 15.)

Check out these mini-galleries of the four shortlisters' work (for best results, view them in full-screen mode), and let us know what you think. And don't forget to vote!
