33rd Annual Juried Photography Exhibition
Deadline: February 12, 2014 (RECEIVE) or (EMAIL)
33rd Annual Juried Photography Exhibition
Smithtown Township Arts Council
Mills Pond House Gallery
St. James, New York
April 5 - May 1, 2014
The theme for this exhibition is Medium. The juror is very interested in how various mediums of photography are used to enhance an artist's statement or intention in their work. Works are often most successful when the subject matter is paired well with the correct choice of medium - the two have a symbiotic relationship.
Do you work in tintype, digital, film, platinum, gelatin silver, photogravure, etc.?
Show me the greatest combination of your medium with your subject.
