Camera Work: Landscape and Architecture

Black Box Gallery is hosting a landscape and architecture juried group photo show. The exhibition explores the process and diversity of observation, interpretation and documentation of these two photographic genres, examining how compelling, significant and relevant photographic work engages the aesthetics, craft, tradition and concepts of landscape and architectural photography.

Juror Todd Johnson is the founder and director of Black Box Gallery. He holds an MFA in Photography from the San Francisco Art Institute and has served as a photography portfolio reviewer for Photolucida and juror for The Drawers Program at Blue Sky Gallery. Johnson has worked as an independent photography curator organizing shows by international photographers and has been a college photography instructor for 15 years in Portland.

Submissions must include 1-5 images. Entry fee is $35.00. Up to 5 applications are allowed per artist. The juror will select 24 photographs for exhibition at the gallery and an additional 30 photographs for exhibition in the online gallery annex. All 54 photographs will be included in a catalog available for purchase on Blurb Books. Exhibition dates are July 1-20, 2018, with an opening reception on Friday, July 6, 6-8:00 pm.

Black Box Gallery provides free printing, matting, and framing for all exhibitions. Selected photographers will provide a high resolution TIFF or JPEG file for the gallery to print. Prints are made on an Epson Stylus Pro archival inkjet printer on Epson Premium Luster Photo paper in a color-calibrated environment. Exhibition prints will be kept in a flat file after the show for future sale and promotion. Black Box Gallery takes a 50% commission on all sales, with 50% going to the photographer. All rights remain with the photographer, and no sale or printing will occur without prior consent. If an artist prefers, the print does not have to be for sale and will be for exhibition and promotion only.
