Bayerischer Journalisten-Verband (BJV) Press Photo Exhibition, Munich Airport

The Bayerischer Journalisten Verband's (Bavarian Journalist Union, BJV) Press Photos of the Year exhibition continues to run until May 1 in the Munich International Airport, Terminal 2, fourth floor, south check-in area (near Lufthansa). 

The BJV is the Bavarian arm of the Deutscher Journalisten-Verband (German Journalist Union, DJV) and is the administrator of the awards.  In addition to the winning photos for 2016, the top photos of 2016, as well as previous winners, are on display.  The BJV awards are jury-selected and designed to support and illustrate the importance of quality journalism and photojournalism in an era where editorial standards and payments are being lowered.
