Latent: Call for Entries by En Foco - DEADLINE FEBRUARY 25th, 2010

Submit work to "LATENT," a CALL FOR ENTRIES for an En Foco exhibition at Umbrella Arts Gallery, NYC in March 2010. The theme refers not only to the process of photography, but the positive potential of the exhibiting photographers.

JUROR: Terry Boddie, Independent Curator (www.sightspecificprojects.com) & Educator

EMAIL SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Thursday, February 25th

EXHIBITION DATES: March 3 – 27, 2010

ELIGIBILITY:
There is no fee, but current membership is required to participate. Non-members are welcome to join: www.enfoco.org/join (not sure if your membership is current? Email us at info@enfoco.org, with "Membership Status Question" in subject line). Latent is open to all photo-based media, and to members of all nationalities/ethnicities.

HOW TO SUBMIT:
-- Email 3 jpgs (no larger than 800 pixels wide) to latent@enfoco.org. Include complete contact information (name, address, cell & home phone, email, website) and the following information about each image submitted: title, series, year, medium, image size (HxW"), framed size (HxW"), and price if it is for sale.

REQUIREMENTS:
-- Work to be exhibited must be no larger than 20x24” framed.
-- The selected artists must deliver the selected work to the gallery, framed & READY TO HANG (with wire, hooks or whatever makes it easy to place on the wall), and be promptly picked up the work once the show is over (or arrange for shipping).
-- Drop off will be at Umbrella Arts gallery on Sunday, February 28 and Monday, March 1st (details will be emailed to the exhibiting artists). The gallery commission is 25% of sales.
-- Important note: En Foco/Curator reserves the right to turn away work that is not a compatible representation of the image chosen, is of poor quality, or is not ready to hang. This exhibit is being created as a way to thank our members for their support, and of course we want to share your most spectacular work with the world. Please do email if you have any questions (latent@enfoco.org).

GREAT TO KNOW:
-- Exhibiting artists will receive an article on En Foco’s blog, a photographer’s page on www.enfoco.org, and a Professional Photographer Membership extension (of same value as current membership). We will of course promote it too! There is also a possibility of an exhibition catalog by Blurb.com (in which case hi-res jpgs will be requested).
-- Keep in mind that certain En Foco membership levels offer discounts at labs/printers, should you be selected and need something printed quick. Our friends at Modernage and Loupe Digital can do a fairly quick turnaround.
-- Why now? Our members have been asking for En Foco to host a Members Exhibition for quite some time – so when Umbrella Arts offered the space, we were happy to oblige!
