2008: “Idea of Self” at the Center for Fine Art Photography

Although I have a little widget for upcoming shows on the right side of this site, I thought that this one was worth a special mention. The Center for Fine Art Photography’s “Idea of Self” call for entries deadline is today (11/12/2008) at 11:59PM MST (UTC-7).

Below is the description of the show as noted in the prospectus:

How do you see yourself? How do you think of yourself? How do you think other people see you? Are you the fly on the wall or the center of attention? The Idea of Self stretches further than the self portrait, and into the recesses of the mind, spirit and our subconscious. The Idea of Self takes us on a journey of self enlightenment and discovery allowing the photographer to truly bare their soul or to hide it away. This investigation of who we are, or who we think we are, is uniquely represented through the art of photography.

The Juror for this show is Susan A. Zadeh, founder, publisher, editor in chief and artistic director of EYEMAZING, an international magazine on contemporary photography based in Amsterdam. EYEMAZING won a Lucie Award for the 2008 Photography Magazine of the Year. To view EYEMAZING Magazine visit www.eyemazing.com.

I am a member of The Center For Fine Art Photography’s Ambassador’s Circle, which is a group of volunteers who help to share information about events and calls for entry.

More information, including a full list of the awards, can be found on the show’s call for entries page.
