CALL for ENTRIES: Julia Margaret Cameron Award

French food is the gold standard.  You don’t have to agree with me; it is objective fact.  It isn’t all about sauce.  I believe it is all about the cheese.  The French boast 350 to 400 TYPES of cheese… maybe 1000.  I haven’t tried them all yet; it is on my bucket list.  Until I try them all and pronounce my favorite, give Sainte-Maure de Touraine a try.  Could you pick some up for me when you’re at this opening?

Check out this Call for Entries for the Julia Margaret Cameron Award from the Worldwide Photography Gala Awards.  Here a chance to fulfill all of your beret-wearing, Eiffel Tower visiting Parisian art fantasies.  Sign me up…

Julia Margaret Cameron Award

 

Learn more from the Worldwide Photography Gala Awards WPGA website!ELIGIBILITY: Professional and non professional female artists from all countries.

MEDIA:  Photography.  Traditional, contemporary, avant-garde, creative and experimental works that include old and new processes, mixed techniques, and challenging personal, emotional or political statements will be welcome.

DEADLINE:  December 30th, 2011, at 11:59pm PST

NOTIFICATION:  March 8th, 2012 (honoring the International Women’s Day)

ENTRY FEE:  $40 for the first 3 images; $10 each additional image

JUROR:  Amber Terranova is the photo editor for Photo District News. She worked previously for New York magazine and Outside. She holds a BFA in photography from the School of Visual Arts, Manhattan.  Amber has assisted with programming at Center, a Santa Fe-based non-profit organization that supports photographers. Her taste in photography tends toward emerging and established artists with strong personal projects, surprising content and evidence of political or social engagement. She’s most drawn to introspective, provocative work.

Learn more about Juror Dina Bova!Dina Bova was born in Moscow and currently lives in Israel. Her images have been awarded in Px3, Hasselbald Masters, Sony Awards, 1st edition of the JMCA, Nikon, PDN’s World in Focus, and have won 21 Gold medals in international photo-contests under FIAP/PSA patronage in USA, Austria, France, England, Croatia, Ukraine, Taiwan and Israel. Her art is a world of allegories, metaphors and multifaceted associations. She thinks that it’s not important how an artist creates his work. It can be created with any tool and any medium, but it should speak for itself and convey a very special mood. It should need no explanation, no elaboration and no apologies. It can be very aesthetic or the opposite of it. For Dina, the most important thing  is freeing the imagination.

AWARDS:  The Julia Margaret Cameron Award will be given to 12 women photographers which will be invited to exhibit (and sell) their work in a very selective collective exhibition in Paris during 2013, honoring one hundredth year of the birth of Robert Capa, co-founder of Magnum Photos and famous war photojournalist. WPGA will take care of the framing and matting, as well as all gallery expenses.  A catalog will be printed, and all 12 awardees will receive one free copy.

SALES:  Exhibitors will receive 40% of the sales, 20% will be reserved for the gallery/organizers, and 40% will be donated to a charitable organization selected by the awardees.
