Gallery is hosting the juried photography exhibition
ABSTRACTS
The Alternative Eye
Photography at first
blush has often been thought of as a literal or pictorial art, and the
withering truth of the camera lens has often held the power to open
hearts and change minds. But beyond realism and narrative, documentary
and expose lies another universe of possibilities... a universe where the
formal rules of focus, composition and exposure don't necessarily apply
anymore.
It is a world of "anything goes", where the elements of
light, shadow, texture, color and line combine to form images of
emotional power or visual beauty, stark contrasts or subtle shades of
tonality -- the world of ABSTRACTS. It is a world without boundaries,
real or imagined... as unlimited as the photographer's imagination.
This
month, let your imagination run wild as 1650 Gallery explores the world
of Abstract Photography! Open to all photographic methods and
techniques, digital or analog, subject matter is unlimited; real or
imagined -- recognizable or not! There are no rules, so just have fun,
make some good photos and show 'em to us!
SHOOT NOW AND ASK QUESTIONS LATER, THIS MONTH ONLY, AS 1650 TURNS OUR
MIND'S EYE TOWARD ABSTRACTS!
There is an entry fee of $25 for up to 5 images. Additional entries may
be submitted for $5 each.
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.

Good luck and hope to see you at the opening reception!
