Newspace Center for Photography
2008 Juried Exhibition
Curated by TJ Norris
July 3 through July 27, 2008
RECEPTION: Friday, July 11, 7-10PM
In quiet homage to the one-hundreth anniversary of Henri Cartier-Bresson’s birth, I thank Newspace for giving me the opportunity to curate and host this survey of works by thirty-seven photographers that span from eleven states and over four countries. Please join me and some of the showcased photographers for the opening reception on July 11 when we reveal the winner of a $500 prize and a forthcoming solo exhibition at the gallery. A catalogue has been published and is now available (copies will also be available at Newspace). From a call for entries that drew 320+ portfolios, these images surfaced with deep mystery, sensitivity to ethereal abstraction and a whole host of other quirky reasons. There were some intertwining similarities and subjects, and for that reason this becomes far from a typical survey, rather an opportunity to observe the language of the image speak through the physical, social, ethnic and other barriers that separate us.
