    FIGURE 8.1 I EUROPE Stretching from Iceland in the Atlantic to the Black Sea, Europe includes 40 countries, ranging in size from large states, such as France and Germany, to the microstates of Liechtenstein, Andorra, San Marino, and Monaco. Currently the population of the region is about 531 mil- lion. Europe is highly urbanized and, for the most part, relatively wealthy, par- ticularly the western portion. However, economic and social differences between eastern and western Europe remain a problem. (left) Migration re- mains one of Europe’s most troublesome issues. While some immigrates will- ingly embrace European values and culture, others prefer to remain more distant by resisting cultural and political integration. In Britain, for example, there is ongoing debate about Muslim women wearing their traditional veils.

Heebner’s visual dialogue with Kessler’s poem powerfully brings to life the legendary voice of Cassandra. To paraphrase the poet, a lovely myth rises in art to beggar disbelief.

In a year that saw over 122,000 entries from 170 countries – the highest number of submissions to date - the judges have selected a shortlist of photographs that stood out beyond all others for their impressive high quality, originality and modern appeal. Topics ranged from haunting shots of the Syrian conflict to the Obama presidential campaign; an intimate study of cinema-goers in Kabul to quirky and witty shots of the animal kingdom. Bringing together the very best international contemporary photography, the shortlist offers a unique insight into 2012 through the eyes of some of the world’s best emerging and established photography talents. Photographers returning to the awards include: Javier Arcenillas (Spain); Robin Hammond (New Zealand) and Paolo Pellegrin (Italy).

The Honorary Jury, which selected the Professional shortlist, was chaired by Catherine Chermayeff, Director of Special Projects at Magnum Photos. She comments: “What an invigorating three days - which resulted in lively and passionate debates. I think we, the jurors, all began this process and felt overwhelmed. I am delighted to say that by day three, each group proudly presented and argued for our respective shortlists and found surprising strength in the shortlist submissions across all categories.” Astrid Merget, Creative Director of the World Photography Organisation, adds: “The World Photography Organisation is dedicated to finding the best international contemporary photography from across the world.
