Call for Submissions
Deadline: Midnight, Monday, October 17, 2011
Juror: Russell Joslin, editor SHOTS magazine
Photography often astonishes us with its ability to record surface appearances with remarkable accuracy. But it is also a medium that permits profound introspection through the creation of dram-like, fantastic, surreal images. For UNCANNY, PhotoPlace Gallery seeks photographs that evoke the depths of dreams and the subconscious through subject and or style. All media welcome.
For this exhibition Russell Joslin will choose forty portraits for exhibition at PhotoPlace Gallery from December 6 th through 31st. He will also choose an additional thirty-five portraits for the gallery’s “On-Line Annex.†All selected work will be included in a full-color exhibition catalogue available for purchase. To help artists defray costs, PhotoPlace Gallery offers to mat and frame work selected for exhibition free of charge, providing artists print their images to our pre-cut mat and frame sizes. Submission fee: $25 for five photos, $6 each additional photo.
