    These aerial shots are of industrial salt ponds that have existed in the South Bay since the1800's and are characterized by environmentalists as having taken away the lungs of the Bay. Currently they are a part of the South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project, the largest wetland restoration program on the Pacific Coast which to date has restored over 3,000 acres and when completed will have cost over 100 million dollars. Over the course of the next sixty years, these salt ponds will go back to their natural state. Since 2010 I have gone up once a year in a helicopter to document this epic transformation and I plan to continue to go up once year to document these changes in the Bay as it’s biodiversity dramatically increases.

Juror Julie Grahame’s Statement for the 25th Annual Juried Exhibition: Griffin Museum of Photography
“I like a good challenge and the entrants to the 25th Annual Juried Exhibition certainly gave me one. The volume of good work made it tough, even though I had the right to choose up to 60 images… I chose the full 60 and I could have squeezed in a couple more. This is quite rare, and I hope the artists who were not chosen understand that due to the quality and quantity of entries some good images couldn’t make the cut.

When jurying I want to assess each image on its own caliber, I want to choose things that are not necessarily my personal taste but whose merits are obvious – rating for technicality; composition; originality; a refreshing look at something oft-seen; an entire story in one frame.

In first place, I chose Sunjoo Lee’s “Black Memorabilia” as I found the series so sumptuous, and am looking forward to seeing it in rich print. In second place is Scott Nobles’ fantastic series that made me giggle out loud, so well executed and adorable. Brian Kossof’s “Posts” from his nighttime long exposures has its wonderfully simple elements that make up a poetic image. All together I am pleased with a grand spread of styles and subjects across the 60 finalists.

There were quite a few fantastical images, perhaps a comment on the current state of affairs and a need for escape. Also trending are a look back at family photos, bringing contemporary elements to family histories. It’s always pleasing to see classic work, like a strong but quiet black and white landscape, alongside a fresh digital construction. Thank you to all the artists who shared their vision with me. Keep it fresh!” -JG

* Editor’s note: One photographer withdrew from the exhibit for personal reasons and one photographer didn’t send a photograph for the exhibit. One photograph was eliminated due to it being a second image for one photographer. The Director of the museum chose a director’s prize making the number of images in the exhibit 58.

What Will You Remember’s Interview With Julie Grahame

—————————————————————————

See Portal entry in Submission Requirements below. Portal opens morning of February 24, 2019.

AWARDS: $2,500 Richards Family Trust Award, $1,000 Arthur Griffin Legacy Award, $500 Griffin Award, and Honorable Mentions. We will award 4 exhibitions that will take place next June and July 2020. We will award 1 Director’s prize that will result in a catalog and exhibition. We will produce a catalog of the 25th Juried exhibition. We will produce an online exhibition from photographs not chosen by the juror and it will run on Instagram as well. We will award a Member in Focus.

ELIGIBILITY: This Call for Entries is open to all member photographers. Entrants must be members of the Griffin Museum of Photography (with an expiration after 4/1/2019). We do not advocate for members to join the museum just for this juried opportunity only. We always welcome new members as part of our family and offer a broad range of member opportunities. While some opportunities are for long distance members like our on-line classes, we are working on increasing our offerings this year for distance members. There is a membership level for Distance Members. The Griffin Museum invites member photographers working in all mediums, styles and schools of thought to participate. Experimental and mixed techniques are welcome. There is no theme. The juror will choose between 50 – 60 photographs. We ask the juror to TRY not to choose more than one photograph per photographer. The juror will choose the recipients of the monetary awards. We encourage submitting images from a singular, unified body of work for a cohesive selection for the Juried Exhibition. Artwork selected for gallery exhibition will be limited to FRAMED SIZE of 30×40 inches and under.

JUROR: Julie Grahame is the publisher of aCurator.com, a full-screen photography magazine, and the associated aCurator blog, one of the ten best photo sites named by the British Journal of Photography and one of Life.com‘s top 20. She has represented the estate of Yousuf Karsh for licensing for 14 years. Grahame is an independent consultant, reviewer, writer and speaker.

She is on the board of the American Photography Archive Group (APAG); judges photography for various non-profits, and is a contributing writer for PDN’s Emerging Photographer and EDU magazines. In 2013 she helped launch a new website dedicated to architectural photography, as well as working a spell as associate director for ClampArt, a gallery in New York. In a former life, she ran the Retna photo agency.

PROGRAMMING: Alongside the juried exhibition, the Griffin Museum will organize a series of professional development workshops presented by a diverse range of thought leaders. These workshops will share instrumental ideas, methods and tools to help build the business and legal foundation of a thriving artistic practice.

HANDLING FEE: The handling fee is $25 for 5 images. We have kept our handling fee very low for many years. *The fee is waived for institutions who have Academic Memberships to the Griffin for their photo students and faculty.

SUBMISSION TIMELINE: February 24 – April 24, 2019 at midnight (We want to get the images to the juror in the last week of April.)

Floor Plan

Amy Rindskopf's Terra Novus

At the market, I pick each one up, pulled in by the shapes as they sit together, waiting. I feel its heft in my hand, enjoy the textures of the skin or peel, and begin to look closer and closer. The patterns on each individual surface marks them as distinct. I push further still, discovering territory unseen by the casual observer, a new land. I am like a satellite orbiting a distant planet, taking the first-ever images of this newly envisioned place.

This project started as an homage to Edward Weston’s Pepper No. 30 (I am, ironically, allergic to peppers). As I looked for my subject matter at the market, I found that I wasn’t drawn to just one single fruit or vegetable. There were so many choices, appealing to both hand and eye. I decided to print in black and white to help make the images visually more about the shapes, and not about guessing which fruit is smoothest, which vegetable is greenest.

Artistic Purpose/Intent

Artistic Purpose/Intent

Tricia Gahagan

 

Photography has been paramount in my personal path of healing from disease and

connecting with consciousness. The intention of my work is to overcome the limits of the

mind and engage the spirit. Like a Zen koan, my images are paradoxes hidden in plain

sight. They are intended to be sat with meditatively, eventually revealing greater truths

about the world and about one’s self.

 

John Chervinsky’s photography is a testament to pensive work without simple answers;

it connects by encouraging discovery and altering perspectives. I see this scholarship

as a potential to continue his legacy and evolve the boundaries of how photography can

explore the human condition.

 

Growing my artistic skill and voice as an emerging photographer is critical, I see this as

a rare opportunity to strengthen my foundation and transition towards an established

and influential future. I am thirsty to engage viewers and provide a transformative

experience through my work. I have been honing my current project and building a plan

for its complete execution. The incredible Griffin community of mentors and the

generous funds would be instrumental for its development. I deeply recognize the

hallmark moment this could be for the introduction of the work. Thank you for providing

this incredible opportunity for budding visions and artists that know they have something

greater to share with the world.
