The Street Photographer is often likened to the historical figure of the flâneur: someone who mingles anonymously among the crowd, observing and recording the ways the unsuspecting city dweller interacts with their environment.”

Praxis Gallery seeks the submission of photographic art that explores the genre of street photography from all angles, including people, urban structure, and documentary subject matter. All genres, capture types, black and white and color, traditional and non-traditional photographic, and digital post-production processes are welcome for submission. Juried by: Valérie Jardin

Open Show #47 Pasadena/East LA

THEME: [did]CONNECTED
In the wake of unprecedented global events, we invite artists to submit work that delves into the intricacies of human connection—or its absence—in various realms of existence. Whether exploring the depths of self-awareness, the dynamics between individuals, our relationship with the environment, society’s pulse, moments in time, or the ethereal realm of spirituality, we seek art and documentation that reflects upon these critical facets.

The post-pandemic era has reshaped our understanding of connectivity, emphasizing its pivotal role in navigating the complexities of modern life. Increased awareness of mental health, the impact of conflict and natural disasters, all underline the urgent need to examine and celebrate the essence of connection.

Photography stands as a poignant testament to our existence, serving both as a document of historical record and as a powerful medium for artistic expression. We encourage submissions that visually articulate these transformative times we inhabit today.

Carmignac Photojournalism Award

Fondation Carmignac

Hyères,

The 15th edition of the Carmignac Photojournalism Award is dedicated to Southeast Asia and the violations of human and environmental rights caused by illegal fishing and overfishing.

Since the mid-20th century, artisanal coastal fishing has given way to large-scale deep-sea industrial fishing, which affects all the seas of the world. To meet the exponential demand and face the competition, many players in the sector no longer hesitate to resort to used illegal fishing and overfishing practices with devastating consequences.

Today, 80% of the species suitable for consumption are fully exploited or overexploited, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). Behind this out-of-control industry which is threatening biodiversity, human rights violations are increasing: deplorable working conditions, widespread forced labour and human trafficking are transforming many seas into no-go areas.

Shape

PH21 Gallery

Budapest,

Shapes are one of the most important aspects of creative photographic compositions. Living beings and inanimate objects, including the built environment, come in many forms, and photographers often rely on the creative possibilities offered by their shapes. While in some cases the images of things only serve a depictive function, at the other end of the spectrum, abstract photography concentrates on shapes and forms for their own sake, to the point where we can no longer recognise the depicted objects themselves. Between being either insignificant or the only significant element, the shape of recognisable forms may also be the driving compositional component of an image. That is, the shapes of living beings and objects may be of central importance to the composition of photographs, not only in abstract photography but also in virtually all other photographic genres. These images capture our attention and stand out for their creative compositional form.

The word curve has a broad spectrum of meanings from throwing a curve ball to slowing down for the curve on a country road, and let’s not forget the curves associated with the human body. For this call the focus is on images where a curve or curves is an important element of the composition. No matter where you photograph the possibilities are endless. It can be that winding road. It can also be a stack of old tires, curved windows in a city building, or, in fact, the shape of the building itself.

THRIVE: Beyond Surviving

Taber Art Gallery

Holyoke, MA

A U.S. Department of Agriculture 2022 report found that 44.2 million people lived in households that had difficulty getting enough food to feed everyone, up from 33.8 million people the year prior. Those families include more than 13 million children experiencing food insecurity, a jump of nearly 45 percent from 2021.

Life in the last 5 years has been challenging for a lot of people. With the seemingly endless rise in costs for basic necessities, getting through each day has become a more stressful endeavor. This generation has faced multiple recessions, a global pandemic, increasing frequency and severity of natural disasters, skyrocketing food and housing prices, unaffordable medical care, and the stress of global violence. Surviving, the ability to continue living and existing, takes a deep psychological toll. Ensuring the bare minimum of food to eat, somewhere to call home, and the most basic health care, has become more and more difficult.

Taber Art Gallery, in partnership with the Thrive Center, at Holyoke Community College is seeking submissions for THRIVE: Beyond Surviving on view October 31 – December 20, 2024. Artists are encouraged to enter work that considers the systemic, communal, and/or individual obstacles and barriers to survival, what surviving means, how we as humans can continue to dream, push, and hope for more than the minimum, and the struggle of exhaustion vs. the ability to rest.
