M.I.L.K. “Love”
M.I.L.K. is an epic photographic celebration of what it is to be part of a family, share the gift of friendship and more than anything else, to be loved. Inspired by the 1950s landmark photographic exhibition “The Family of Man”, M.I.L.K. began as a worldwide search to develop a collection of extraordinary and geographically diverse images portraying humanity’s “Moments of Intimacy, Laughter and Kinship” (M.I.L.K.).
This search took the form of a global photographic competition in 1999. It was not only the richest in photographic history, but also one of the most significant, drawing participation from 17,000 professional and amateur photographers in 164 countries. In total, over 40,000 images were received by M.I.L.K., including entries from at least four Pulitzer Prize winners.
Our very own, Ricardo Ordonez, was the winning photographer for the “Love” competition. “LOVE, A Celebration of Humanity”. M.I.L.K.
