2013 PHOTO REVIEW PHOTOGRAPHY COMPETITION

CORCORAN GALLERY OF ART PHOTOGRAPHY CURATOR PAUL ROTH TO JURY THE 2013 PHOTO REVIEW PHOTOGRAPHY COMPETITION

Paul Roth, Senior Curator and Director, Photography and Media Arts, at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, will be the juror for the 2013 Photo Review Photography Competition. The Photo Review, a highly acclaimed critical journal of photography, is sponsoring its 29th annual photography competition with a difference. Instead of only installing an exhibit that would be seen by a limited number of people, The Photo Review will reproduce accepted entries in its 2013 competition issue and on its website. Thus, the accepted photographs will be seen by thousands of people all across the world and entrants will have a tangible benefit from the competition.

Also, the prize-winning photographers will be chosen for an exhibition at the photography gallery of The University of the Arts, Philadelphia. And numerous Editor’s Selections will be exhibited in several Photo Review web galleries.

Because their work was seen in The Photo Review, past winners have been given one-person exhibitions, have had their work reproduced in other leading photography magazines, and have sold their work to collectors throughout the country.

Awards include an Olympus Pen E-PL5 camera; SilverFast Ai Studio 8, SilverFast HDR Studio, SilverFast SE Plus 8, from LaserSoft Imaging; a $250 gift certificate from Calumet Photographic; a 24-inch x 50-foot roll of Museo Silver Rag; a 20x24-inch silver gelatin fiber print from Digital Silver Imaging; elegant camera bags from Jill-E; and flash drives from USB Memory Direct.

An entry fee of $35 for up to three prints or images and $8 for each additional image entitles all entrants to a copy of the full-color catalogue. In addition, all entrants will be able to subscribe to The Photo Review for $36, a 20% discount.

All entries must be received by June 30, 2013.

You can download contest rules and submit images at http://www.photoreview.org/compete.htm. For further information call The Photo Review at 215/891-0214, 140 East Richardson Avenue, Suite 301, Langhorne, PA 19047, info@photoreview.org.

SPE National Call for Conference Proposals

SPE National Call for Conference Proposals  

Collaborative Exchanges: Photography in Dialogue
2014 SPE National Conference - March 6-9, 2014 - Hilton Baltimore

In an age of interconnectedness, photographers are no longer solitary practitioners peering at the world through the singular eye of the viewfinder. Rather, photography is positioned at the heart of the contemporary art discourse, establishing relationships with a broad array of ideas and media. Photographers are reaching outside of themselves more than at any point in history, to collaborate with other artists and writers, expand international relationships, engage with and empower communities, organize into teams and collectives, hybridize across media and materials, and build online resource groups and community non-profit organizations to facilitate their ideas. This conference illuminates this new paradigm and celebrates the spirit of cooperation and social linkages.

SPE is accepting proposals through June 1, 2013 @11:59 pm Eastern Standard Time. Topics are not required to be theme-based and may include but are not limited to imagemaking, history, contemporary theory and criticism, new technologies, effects of media and culture, education issues, and funding. Membership in SPE is required to submit and proposals are peer reviewed.

Presentation Formats

Imagemaker presentation on your own artistic work

Lecture presentation on historical topic, theory, or another artist's work

Panel Discussion panelists (maximum of four) led by a moderator to discuss a chosen topic.

Teaching & Learning presentations, workshops, demos that addresses educational issues, including teaching resources and strategies (syllabi, videos, assignments, readings, class prep/setup, and PowerPoint presentations); curricula to serve diverse artists and changing student populations; seeking promotion and tenure; avoiding burnout; and professional exchange

Graduate Student short presentation of your own artistic work and a brief introduction to your graduate program (must be enrolled in graduate program at time of submission)

Complete proposal guidelines available on SPE's 2014 Conference Details Page.
