OPEN CALL FOR ENTRIES

OF TIME AND PLACE What is it about a place that makes it memorable? You walk by the same park every day but one day the light shines through the tree and makes it glow. You take the shot and forever more when you think of that park, you recall that specific day, that specific time. Other people remark about the engaging quality of that image, and you recognize it was all about time and place. A street, a building, a field, a New England town dressed in holiday cheer, or the finish line of the three-legged race at a 4th of July picnic. Show us your photos that bridge the gap between ordinary and extraordinary. Take us to your memorable time and place.

OF TIME AND PLACE is a national Open Call for participation for both members and non-members of Viewpoint Photographic Art Center. We invite you to submit images representing time and place from around the world to be considered for one of the four cash prizes, inclusion in the gallery show, and on the Viewpoint website. In addition, images taken in Sacramento, Nevada, Placer, and Yolo Counties will also be considered for the Photography Month Sacramento Special Award.

AWARDS

First Place - $400
Second Place - $300
Third Place - $200
Curators Award - $100
Special Award: In recognition Photography Month Sacramento taking place in April, one special prize of a free registration for the Viewpoint Photographic Art Center workshop 'A Sense of Place' will be awarded to the photographer of an image taken in one of the participating counties: Sacramento, Nevada, Placer, and Yolo.

JUROR: Gene Kennedy
Kennedy has been photographing for nearly five decades, gaining recognition nationally for his images of the evolving California landscape. He is known as a photographer, teacher, and gallery administrator. As the former director of the Gladding McBean Photography Workshops in Lincoln, CA, he enlightened students by pointing out the nuances of architecture and how to turn fields of identical terra cotta products into engaging photographs.
His photographic projects have focused on the human-impacted environment, appreciation of the natural world, and a more than occasional touch of humor. Kennedy's documentary-style landscapes reside in the collections of the California State Library, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, among others.
