Today at 1 July
the photo contest
Wiki Loves Public Space started in Belgium. This year
is the first year in what we have during the full Summer
freedom of panorama in Belgium (
info), which means that
modern buildings and artworks in the public space can be photographed
and freely be published. For years it was not possible to illustrate
articles with photos of modern buildings and artworks in the public
space due the limitations of the Belgian copyright law. To celebrate
this freedom and to compensate the many years of not being allowed to
upload photos of these Belgian subjects (and thus bare articles), we
organise this photo contest.
During the Summer months July and
August 2017 anyone can participate by uploading their own photos from modern
buildings, public artworks, heritage monuments and memorials, present in
the public space in Belgium. Also photos you made earlier are welcome.
