Color Burst: Contemporary Photography

Black Box Gallery is hosting a color photography juried group photo show. The exhibition explores how contemporary photographers use color in landscape, portraiture, architecture, fashion, street, abstract, documentary, still life, narrative, conceptual, nature, and night photography.

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 and curation. The exhibition will feature 26 photographs selected for display at the gallery (June 1-25, 2025) and an additional 50 photographs in 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 12" x 18", 12" x 12", or 12" x 16" (other aspect ratios available). After the exhibition, prints are retained in flat files for promotion and sales. Black Box Gallery takes a 50% commission on sales; 50% goes to the photographer. Prints may be designated for exhibition and promotion only if the artist prefers. All rights remain with the photographer. Entry fee is $40. Submissions limited to 5 images. Open to all photographers internationally.
