Re: Juried shows, or even galleries, very specific to alt processes
That said, I often think that juried shows, or even galleries,
very specific to alt processes are akin to African American
studies, or Women's Studies programs/depts in universities-- maybe
they're necessary at this point, but gee-- wouldn't it be wonderful
and refreshing if they weren't?
Diana, that's a great point. I'm not yet engaged in any alternative
process work myself. (I have strong interest but lack resources and a
work space of my own). However, I do silver printing and entered the
second annual silver print competition held at Art Center College of
Design in Pasadena, earning honorable mention for a silver print of
mine. It's interesting since I don't know that there used to be
silver print competitions. Black and white? Sure. But silver
specifically? Perhaps silver printing is joining alternative process,
African American studies, and women's studies?
