Macro/Micro Photography Exhibition

Copyright 2011 :: Open photo contests and competitions

Macro/Micro Photography ExhibitionTheme: "Macro/Micro: Photographic Extremes"

Microphotography reveals a world unseen by the naked eye. It often exposes patterns and designs that create sublime abstract images. Macrophotography gathers a view often larger and grander than can be gathered with the human eye. Both introduce distortions either through lens characteristics or stitching construction techniques that are creative tools used to produce these distinctive images.

Exhibition dates: 7 June - 1 July 2012

Awards:

  • All selected entries are exhibited in our gallery and included in a full color exhibit catalog.
  • Juror’s Choice receives a 20×35" vinyl exhibit banner featuring their image.
  • Free matting and framing of accepted entries are offered for the duration of each of our exhibition, subject to standard sizes.

Kiernan Gallery Portfolio Showcase

Copyright 2011 :: Open photo contests and competitions

Kiernan Gallery Portfolio ShowcaseEvery photograph tells a story. When part of a body of work, the photograph takes on a new meaning, becoming part of a bigger and more complete narrative. A portfolio allows the photographer to explore the complexities of their subject, and provide context that gives it richness and meaning that is more than the sum of its parts.

Awards:

  • Eight photographers will be selected for the exhibition, split into two shows. The first four will show from June 6 - July 14, the other four will show from July 18 - August 25.
  • All eight photographers and artist statements will be reproduced in an exhibition catalogue available for purchase.
