The art of photography will once again be celebrated at the ICON de Martell Cordon Bleu, Singapore’s premier photography award. Returning for the fifth year, the esteemed photography competition recognises outstanding photographers who translate their creative stories and concepts into visuals that inspire, question, amuse and at times, perplex .
For the first time, ICON de Martell Cordon Bleu will take place at the National Museum of Singapore in conjunction with the Singapore Night Festival in August this year.
