Camera Work: Black and White

Black Box Gallery is hosting a Black and White juried group photography exhibition. The show seeks a diversity of photographic works exploring black and white imagery, which offers classic, nostalgic, and dynamic translations. Contemporary photographers are invited to engage with the tradition of luminous, well-crafted, and thoughtfully composed black and white work while bringing their own modern voice and aesthetics.

The juror is Todd Johnson, founder and director of Black Box Gallery, who holds an MFA in Photography from the San Francisco Art Institute and has 25 years of experience in arts education, curation, and exhibition work. The exhibition runs December 1-25, 2025. Twenty-six photographs will be selected for physical exhibition at the gallery, and an additional 50 photographs will be selected for the online gallery annex. All 76 photographs will be included in a catalog available for purchase on Blurb Books.

Black Box Gallery provides free printing, matting, and framing for all selected work. Prints are produced on an Epson Stylus Pro archival inkjet printer on Epson Premium Luster Photo paper in a color-calibrated environment. Selected photographers must provide high-resolution TIFF or JPEG files. Exhibition prints are retained in the gallery's flat files after the show for future promotion and sales. The gallery takes a 50% commission on sales, with 50% going to the photographer. All rights remain with the photographer, and no sales or printing occur without prior consent. Entry fee is $40. Submissions must include 1-5 images. Deadline: November 12, 2025 at 11:59 p.m. MST.
