TAKE ANOTHER
little piece of
my heart
I am craving tapas, and I am too lazy to do it myself. I love the idea of little tidbits of a large variety of foods from savory to sweet. I also love the sharing that is inherent in this sort of eating. It always feels like we are sharing a chef’s whole portfolio of tricks and treats with those we love the most. This next Call will allow you to show YOUR whole portfolio, and I am happy to share it with my readers…the ones I love most. Too sappy for Thursday; I know…
Check out this Call for Entries for The Portfolio Show from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, Virginia). The is about a third lower this year than last. So this is an excellent opportunity to show a full body of work for not much more than the average 3 image submission. If the shoe fits…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Portfolio Show
Every photograph tells a story. When part of a body of work, the photograph takes on a new meaning, becoming part of a bigger and more complete narrative. A portfolio allows the photographer to explore the complexities of their subject, providing context that gives it richness and meaning greater than the sum of its parts. The Kiernan Gallery is pleased to announce its second annual portfolio showcase, juried by renowned photography critic Vicki Goldberg.
ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists
MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.
DEADLINE: May 23, 2012
NOTIFICATION: Approx. 8 days after deadline.
ENTRY FEE: $50 for 10 – 15 images
JUROR: Vicki Goldberg, one of the leading voices in the field of photography criticism, wrote about photography for the New York Times for thirteen years and has published several books and the texts for more than twenty-five photographic monographs. One review of her latest book, The White House: The President’s Home in Photographs and History, called it “a lovely way to invite people who are a little wobbly on their White House and presidential history to shore up some of their weaknesses, while learning a thing or two about how the medium of photography has shaped our identity and national perspective.”
Goldberg has received numerous awards for writing, including the International Center of Photography’s Infinity Award, the Royal Society’s Dudley Johnston Award, and the Long Chen Cup (China). Ms. Goldberg, who has taught courses at the Institute of Fine Arts in New York, the Centro de la Imagen in Mexico City, the Rhode Island School of Design and the Art Institute of Boston, lectures internationally and writes on photography for various magazines.
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.
