Call for Submissions

Staged: The Constructed Photograph

(Swainsboro, GA) - Gallery RFD seeks submissions for its upcoming exhibition titled Staged: The Constructed Photograph.

Countless photographers discuss the concept of taking a picture vs. making a picture and arguments can be made for either one. Can the constructed image tell us something the found image cannot? Does a photograph that was captured in the heat of a moment comment more closely on society that an image that was thoughtfully composed to have the same effect? Gallery RFD seeks submissions of photographic works that have been created, arranged, and composed from the ground up in attempt to convey their own truths.

Submission deadline: Thursday, April 23, 2009, 4 p.m. (EST)
Juror: TBA

Exhibition runs: June 13, 2009 - July 4, 2009
Opening Reception: June 13, 2009, 5-8 p.m.
