ABOUT EGGS
The poached egg just may be the showcase of the total sum of one’s culinary skill. My husband is the master of poached egg. Cooking them perfectly requires patience, a little chemical inside knowledge, special care to aesthetics and LOTS of practice. I’m a lucky one; I am. This next Call wants the total sum of your artistic skill by way of your portfolio. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Portfolio 2014
Every photograph tells a story. When part of a body of work, the photograph takes on a new meaning, becoming part of a larger and more complete narrative. A portfolio allows the photographer to explore the complexities of their subject, and provide context that gives it richness and meaning that is more than the sum of its parts. The Kiernan Gallery is pleased to announce its third annual portfolio showcase.
ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists
MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.
DEADLINE: May 22, 2014
NOTIFICATION: Approx. 8 days after deadline.
ENTRY FEE: $50 for 10 – 15 images
JUROR: In 2010, Gordon Stettinius founded Candela Books, a publishing company, and, to date, they have produced three fine art photography monographs with more in the works. In 2011, Gordon founded a fine art photography gallery dedicated to featuring the work of nationally respected photographers. Candela Books + Gallery now inhabits a renovated 3,800 square foot building in the downtown arts district of Richmond, Virginia and is one of the leading advocates for fine art photography in the mid-Atlantic region.
As a photographer, Stettinius has been exhibited nationally and internationally over the last twenty years and his work can be found in numerous private and public collections. His work is represented by Robin Rice Gallery in New York and Page Bond Gallery in Richmond, Virginia. Stettinius is also an emeritus member of 1708 Gallery and an adjunct professor at Virginia Commonwealth University.
AWARDS: For this exhibition, four photographers will be selected to show their complete bodies of work.
SALES: Kiernan Gallery no longer takes commission on sold works. But, they DO still have incentive to sell your work. The Kiernan Gallery was founded by an emerging artist, and recognizes the importance of selling work; they believe that if artists are paying a submission fee, the gallery should not also take a portion of the sale. They do reserve the right to negotiate 20% in order to make a sale.
