Learn more about the Wheels exhibit from the Darkroom Gallery!CALL for ENTRIES: Wheels

Next to the discovery of fire, the invention of the wheel has been the most significant achievement in the development of human culture and civilization.

The  horse drawn chariot revolutionized warfare, while the stone wheel of  the gristmill made it possible to process enough grain to feed  increasing numbers of city dwellers, and the oxcart provided  transportation for people and produce.  In the modern era, life would be  unimaginable without wheels.  America is truly a “car culture”. The rest of the world is not far behind.

How  do you envision wheels in your own life? Maybe you’re a car nut, a  lover of anything that looks sleek and goes fast, from a Grand Prix car  to a NASCAR racer, to a land speed record vehicle.  Or perhaps you’re  more aware of other types of wheels, such as those on bicycles, baby  carriages, or trains.  And then there are Ferris wheels and pinwheels,  skateboards and rollerblades.  Conveyer belts and steamboats. The  possibilities are nearly limitless. — from darkroomgallery.com

CALL for ENTRIES:
This May Have Happened

 

The power of photography as document or proof is well-demonstrated. Photographic images are often crafted to exist alone, as singular facts.

At the same time, the narrative possibilities of still photography develop from the power of suggestion, the potential of the open-ended scene, the unresolved thrill of the cliff-hanger.  The stories that these images suggest may or may not be factual, but their power comes from allowing the audience to bring its own sense of plot and tension to the work.  We are looking as much for questions as we are for answers.

Think noir.  Think sweeping epic.  Think fairy tale.  Think cause and effect. Think characters.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists

MEDIA:  Open to all photographic work.

FOOD ISN’T BLUE

I have an aversion to blue foods.  Blueberries & blue potatoes are really both fairly purple.  Every other blue food I can think of is artificial and always screams, “bio-hazard” at me like blue drinks, candies and frosting.  But have you every noticed if you go to a carnival, 5 out of 6 kids have blue rings around their mouths or blue tongues from shaved ice or cotton candy or gummy worms?  Is it an age thing?  I don’t know.  Just don’t try to feed me your entry for this next show and we’ll be all good.  Take a look…

Learn more about the Blue exhibit from the Darkroom Gallery!CALL for ENTRIES: Blue

Blue is a favorite color of all people, yet it has more complex and contradictory meanings than any other hue.

Throughout the ages, as the natural world’s color for water and sky, blue lends itself to spiritual and heavenly leanings.  In these modern days, blue is embraced as the color of heaven and authority, denim jeans and corporate logos.  Most blues convey a sense of trust, loyalty, cleanliness, and understanding. On the other hand, blue evolved as symbol of depression in American culture. “Singing the blues” and feeling blue” are good examples of the complexity of color symbolism and how the color has been evolved in different cultures.

For this show Darkroom Gallery is looking for all types of blue images & meanings. All the variances of the color: electric, royal, baby, periwinkle, azure, midnight, navy, dark and light.  We are intrigued by naturally occurring blues and man-made blues alike. Whole images consisting of the color, or the choice sections of a photograph that astutely display the power of blue. — from darkroomgallery.com

I need a food segue about Colorado, but did you know that Colorado doesn’t even have a state food?  So bizarre.  Truth be told, when I hear Colorado— specifically, Pueblo, Colorado–I always think of the PSAs that ran between Saturday morning cartoons when I was little.  I am sure I am giving away my age, but I can clearly remember having a milk mustache and hearing, “For more information, write to ‘Pueblo, Colorado, 81009’,” (home of the  Federal Citizen Information Center). It is a shame that sort of random trivia doesn’t make me a genius.  This next Call hails from Pueblo, and genius would come in handy.  Take a look…

Industrial

 

One may characterize industrial as large metal structures, both new and aged, twisting and climbing their way into focus, tightly-wound steel cables, factory floors, and the heavy iron of old railroad trusses. Within the notion of the industrial, however, there is an human emotional attachment connected to the laborer and labor movement, as well. We challenge you to take this subject in any direction and focus you may feel fits the theme.

Work by Juror George Awde!CALL for ENTRIES: XY

Photographs of the strengths and virtues of masculinity coupled with the Achilles’ heel of meeting these stereotypes.

Do all men have power? Do all men want power? Is masculinity the same in every culture and time period? Does the performance of masculinity depend on the categories of race, class, and sexuality? The answer to the first three questions is a resounding no, while the answer both to the fourth one is a clear yes.

Darkroom Gallery is calling for photographs that explore the field of cultural, social, historical, political, psychological, economic, and artistic constructions of masculinity.  What makes something or someone “male”?  These definitions change with communities across the world and throughout history. There is a tense and complex relationship between hegemonic masculinities & subordinate masculinities.  Throughout history, men have paid a steep price for not adhering to, or consciously resisting, stereotypical masculine models.  Let’s remember sex and gender are separate entities.

Learn more about the Darkroom Gallery online!Wanted are images interrogating these male ideals: photographs of warriors, fathers, of wimps and muscle men. Little boys can be “snakes and snails and puppy dog tails” but they can also love the color pink. Inanimate objects can imply such meanings. In the wake of patriarchal fanfare show us the vulnerability, gentleness and supple subtleties behind what is means to inhibit/exhibit being “male”. — from darkroomgallery.com
