PhoPa Gallery Call for Submissions: Emerging Photographers Juried Show
- September 23, 2015
Portland, ME: PhoPa Gallery is pleased to announce its first juried show for emerging photographers. The gallery is seeking a broad range of work, including both traditional and non-traditional approaches to photography. This call is open to young emerging photographers (age 30 and under) who currently live in Maine. The submission period begins on September 23 with a deadline of October 25, before midnight. Applicants will be notified by November 6, and the exhibition will be on view at PhoPa Gallery as the first exhibition of 2016, from January 6 through February 13. Applicants may be photographers who are just beginning their careers to those with five or fewer years of professional experience. Formal academic training is not necessary. There is no strict cut off in defining “emerging” photographer, but the jurors will evaluate how consistently a photographer has been published, exhibited, and how many awards have been received within an approximate five-year timeframe. PhoPa anticipates introductions to new photographic series that have not been shown in another gallery and/or to photographers who are not represented by any gallery. The show will be juried by PhoPa Gallery co-curators Bruce Brown and Jon Edwards. The jurors hope to select up to 5 photographers and show a small body of work by each, providing the selected artists an opportunity to showcase a comprehensive sample of their work. Full submission guidelines can be found at phopagallery.com
Artists may submit up to 10 images, by email only. There is no entry fee.
