Gallery is hosting the juried photography exhibition
WHAT'S
NEW PUSSYCAT?
Photos from the World of Cats
Cats... love 'em or hate 'em, they surround us. They rule our world with
a furry sharp-clawed fist. They allow us to live with them -- as long
as we abide by their rules. Step out of line, and you will feel their
wrath. So... what's a human to do? PHOTOGRAPH THEM, of course!
That's right, 1650 Gallery is hosting a juried photo exhibition of the
love 'em or leave 'em world of cats. While we're thinking mostly of
Felis Domestica (the common house cat), if you have shots of lions,
tigers, panthers, leapords or any of the big cats, they work too!
Whether it's cute kitties or prowling hunters, farm cat or city kitty
-- if it's feline-based you're good to go. We're even looking for girls
in cat suits!
So what's new, pussycat? This month 1650 investigates the fascinating
world of this complex and fascinating creature... THE CAT, as only you
can show it. So don't pussy out -- grab your camera and get to work!
There is an entry fee of $25 for up to 5 images. Additional entries may
be submitted for $5 each.
40 to 45 works will be chosen from submitted photographs to be included
in the WHAT'S NEW PUSSYCAT? exhibition at 1650
Gallery in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. Additional works
may also be selected for an online gallery exhibition page.
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. Precut mat sizes
are 11x14" mats with an 8x10" window, or 16x20" mats with an 11x14"
window and 20x24 mats with a 16x20 window.
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.
Selected
artists may choose to offer their work for sale. The gallery retains
50% of the sale price, as well as 8.75% California sales tax. We offer
free matting and framing for accepted photographs that fit our pre-cut
mat sizes for the duration of the exhibition.
Accepted artists may also choose to sell their works through our online
sales gallery in addition to the regular gallery space. Please inquire!
