Home & the World

Micro-Macro a new photo contest sponsored by the UCR ARTSblock Digital Studio Gallery has been announced.

"In this time of ours, things at once seem paradoxically out of control and out of reach, yet equally knowable, touchable, and observable. For this contest, we are hoping that the unique vision provided by the camera lens can bring specific meaning to this metaphor. We are seeking works by photographers who use the camera to capture what is near or far, documenting reality or constructing fictions, at the point of extreme. It is expected that some artists will achieve this outcome using a camera lens and someone else by using computer technique."

Deadline for entries is Friday August 15th, with winners announced on August 22nd. An exhibition of the 24 selected finalists will open on Thursday September 4th, @ 6pm at UCR California Museum of Photography. For more information, email: digitalstudioinfo@ucr.edu or call the ARTSblock Ed office at: 951.827.4796.
