Contrast
A juried photography exhibition
Call
for Artists - Deadline Extended: May 7th, 2014
Throughout the history of photography contrast has persistently
remained one of the significant expressive features of photographic
images. Indeed, since contrast is a powerful visual communicative means
of black and white and color photography as well, many photographers
use contrast in the most creative ways in their work. Contrast may
constitute the key compositional feature of an image on the formal
aesthetic level, but it may also emphasize some of the important
aspects of the content of the photograph.
PH21
Gallery invites photographers to submit their work for the
group
exhibition themed Contrast. We are looking for submissions from all
photographers who think that contrast is a constitutive element in
their work, and who would like to share their work with a wider
international audience. The theme is broadly construed; it may be
present as a formal aesthetic feature, it may be expressed visually on
personal or social levels, literally or in abstract, symbolic ways.
Indeed, we are interested in all possible creative artistic
interpretations of the theme.
