CFS: Photobook!! The Photographer and the Self-Published Book

Posted on | July 24, 2010 | No Comments

(This should really be on the BPBR site, but the library has blocked it for some reason.)

I’m writing to request you spread the word regarding our November 18 – December 19 exhibition, PHOTOBOOK!!  It’s our first annual juried photobooks show.  I’m a true believer in the photobook to bring one’s work to the attention of the public.  I think it’s a natural for the end of the year when people are shopping for Christmas gifts (hope so).
Here’s a link to info, guidelines, entry fee and application on our website
http://davisortongallery.com/photobook-competition-2
the basic info is:
PHOTOBOOK!! The Photographer and the Self-Published Book

Entry fee for up to 3 books: $25

  • CARLAGIRL PHOTO was founded on 14 February 1999 by Carla Willliams, a photographer, writer, and editor, born, raised and heading back to (yea!) Los Angeles, California.

    It was established with two goals: to be able to make my own work widely available for free, and to make accessible my research about artists of the African Diaspora, especially photographers, and in particular women. As it developed it grew to also include GLBTQ artists.

As you may (or may not) know, last fall, I co-founded Mambu Badu, a photography collective […]
