CLOSED | Call for Entry: Online Group Exhibition - "Land(e)scape” October 2022

Aug 31

We are excited to announce that our October 2022 online group exhibition, “Land(e)scape,” is being curated by American artist, photographer and filmmaker, Joni Sternbach! The deadline for submissions is September 30th, 2022. To enter, all you need to do is read and respond to the following prompt with your wet plate photographs. The best of these images will be showcased in an online show, beginning October 17th, 2022. Good luck!

Prompt: Wet plate photography over the years has typically focused on both portraiture and landscape. For this exhibition, and during this time of global upheaval and national political concerns, my thoughts lead me to how photography can play a role in creating a space for both imagination and escape. Show me work that is tied to the idea of both landscape and escape, made with the wet collodion process.

Deadline for Submissions is September 30th, 2022

Michael Behlen

Michael Behlen is a photography enthusiast from Fresno, CA. He works in finance and spends his free time shooting instant film and seeing live music, usually a combination of the two. He has self- published two Polaroid photobooks--“Searching for Stillness, Vol. 1” and “I Was a Pioneer,” literally a boxed set of his instant film work. He exhibited a variety of his photos at Raizana Teas, a Fresno tea room and health food store; his work there, “Polaroid Prints of Landscapes and Strangers,” was up for viewing during the months of June and July, 2014. He has been published, been interviewed, and been reviewed in a quantity of magazines, from” F-Stop” and “ToneLit” to “The Film Shooter’s Collective.” He loves the magic sensuality of instant film: its saturated, surreal colors; the unpredictability of the medium; it’s addictive qualities as you watch it develop. Behlen is the founder and Publisher of “Pryme Magazine.” You can see his work here: www.dontshakeitlikeapolaroid.com
