APG Portfolio 2013

Show Dates: December 13, 2013 - February 1, 2014



APG’s Portfolio 2013 will be jurored by Karen Irvine, Curator and Associate Director of the Museum of Contemporary Photography at Columbia College Chicago. Ms. Irvine will select work of six to eight photographers submitting strong, cohesive bodies of work. While there is no theme, images submitted should represent a single project, idea, story or vision. An artist statement and brief bio are strongly encouraged. Artists selected will be listed by name and promoted on the APG website along with a link to their site. Selected work will be on view in a seven-week-long exhibition in the Atlanta Photography Group’s stunning and acclaimed gallery space in Atlanta, Georgia. Open to anyone 18 years or older. Entry fee required. Download entry form at www.apgphoto.org.
