OPENING NIGHT RECEPTION:
SATURDAY, March 23, 2013
7:30 - 10:30pm
This month, as winter
continues to bear down, 1650 Gallery welcomes your artistic take on the
theme of Snow & Ice: Winter Photography. Whether it's icicles
hanging from the garage or icebergs in Antarctica, snow covered
mountains or snowballs in the face, sun on the snow or a snow-covered
Buick… 1650 wants images of your world of winter!
The haunting and ethereal beauty of snow and ice is a rite of passage
and a grand artistic test for photographers. It challenges their skill
in judging exposure and contrast, and it tests their prowess in
printing a palette of gleaming whites that dazzles the senses. Those
who dare to meet the challenges of the harsh winter elements can be
rewarded with one-of-a-kind photographs that are unique and
breathlessly beautiful.
So put your snow boots on, grab your St. Bernard and damn the icebergs,
full steam ahead! This month at 1650, you are King of Cold as we gather
photos for SNOW & ICE: Winter Photography.
Approximately fifty works will be chosen from submitted photographs to
be included in the SNOW & ICE exhibition at 1650 Gallery in the
Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. Additional works may also be
selected for an online gallery exhibition page.
There is an entry fee of $25 for up to 5 images. Additional entries may
be submitted for $5 each.
All accepted entries must submit a high res jpeg (300-360 dpi , minimum
size 5x7") to be included in the printed SHOW CATALOG.
We offer free matting and framing for accepted photographs that fit our
pre-cut mat sizes for the duration of the exhibition. We have a variety
of frames and mats to choose from.
We will also print
your photo for a nominal fee if you are accepted
into the
show and would prefer not to mail a print.
