AFTER DARK

Opening Night: To Be Announced
Exhibition Dates: Dec 19th - Jan 5th, 2021

Juror | Lance Keimig

“Night does not show things, it suggests them. It disturbs and surprises us with its strangeness. It liberates forces within us which are dominated by our reason during the daytime.” ― Brassai

Spanning two centuries, night photography has captured the collective imagination of the masses. From the infamously long exposures required by early artists, to high speed color films and the advent of digital technology, the subject of the night has inspired an explosion of interest among contemporary artists. Natural vistas, celestial bodies, urban landscapes, factories, artificial structures and nocturnal interludes represent but a few of the limitless subjects of nighttime photography.

Praxis Gallery presents photographic art that explores the fundamental qualities that make night photography - from dusk to dawn - a compelling contemporary art form.

Narratives

Opening By Appointment
Exhibition Dates: Nov 21st - Dec 14th, 2020

Juror | Sandrine Hermand-Grisel

The photograph’s power as a narrative tool is derived from the impression that what is captured within the frame is an accurate representation of what actually occurred at a specific moment in time. As complete or comprehensive as any narrative may appear to be, it will always be subject to a process of including some elements and excluding others. These inclusions and exclusion are a crucial part of what photographic storytelling is all about - What is being presented within the frame to the viewer – and what is being left out or left to the viewer’s imagination.

 

Praxis Gallery presents photographic works of art that explore the development of visual narratives through the still image. Stories may take any shape or form; they may be literal or fantasy, documentary or fiction; complex or minimal.

The Shape of Things

Theme | The Shape of Things

The rhythm of surfaces, lines, and values is for me the essence of photography; composition should be a constant of preoccupation... an organic coordination of visual elements. – Henri Cartier-Bresson

 

The term composition means ‘putting together’ or the act of combining parts or elements to form a whole - often adhering to compositional principles that make a work of photographic art more appealing or intriguing to viewers. These principles include the development of rhythm, movement, contrast, balance, unity, proximity and continuity to create expressive and compelling compositions – while emphasizing different visual concepts. Praxis Gallery presents art that explores composition as a fundamental aspect of the photographic aesthetic – be it pure visual formalism or in support of thematic objectives.

Praxis Gallery | Photo Arts Center Presents

Even in Darkness,

There is Light

A Solo Exhibition by Brandon Movall
Opening Night Reception: October 24th,2020
Extended: Oct 24th - Dec 12th, 2020

Even in Darkness, There is Light was inspired by my own struggles with anxiety. I wanted to see how other individuals have dealt with their own inner darkness. Each of the pieces is inspired by a response to the prompt: “Tell me about a time in your life where your internal light overcame the darkness around you”. I asked 20 individuals this question, with the goal of demonstrating how powerful the human spirit is, and how, as the title suggests, even in the darkest of times in life, there is light. Each answer to the prompt was voice recorded, so I could hear the inflections of the individual’s voice when they shared their story. From that, I created a light painting photograph inspired by their answer to the prompt. Each image has different colors, shapes, and locations of the light based on my artistic interpretation of the story.

MAKING STRANGE

Opening Night: To Be Announced
Exhibit Dates: Sept 19th - Oct 13th 2020

Juror | Douglas Beasley

How do we document what happens and recurs everyday: the banal, the common, the ordinary? Can we rescue astonishment from the forgotten obvious by finding unexplored perspectives to depict our common places and familiar activities in startling and engrossing new ways?

 

Praxis Gallery seeks the submission of photographic works that search for the iconic and ironic in the everyday world around us; that portray the people, places and things which have become ordinary to us in new, imaginative and expressive ways.

THE STILL LIFE

Reception: To Be Announced
Exhibition Dates: Aug 22nd - Sept 15th, 2020
Juror | Ann Jastrab

Still life photography, more so than other types of photography, such as landscape or portraiture, gives the photographer extensive leeway and precise control in the arrangement of design elements within a composition. Still life photography is a demanding genre, one in which the photographers are expected to be able to form their work with a refined sense of lighting, coupled with composition and design skills. The still life photographer makes pictures rather than takes them. 

Praxis Gallery presents photographic art that investigates the genre of the Still Life. Art work may explore classical to conceptual aspects of the still life, photographing object arrangements that intrigue, engage or entertain the viewer.

The Shadow Aspect

Theme | The Shadow Aspect

‘Most people think that shadows follow, precede, surround beings or objects. The truth is that they also surround words, ideas, desires, deeds, impulses and memories.’ Ellie Wiesel

 

Praxis Gallery presents photographic art that explores the formal, conceptual and metaphoric implications of the shadow. Submissions may focus on the shadow as pure visual form expressed through the creation of line, shape, pattern and texture. They may also examine the cultural and psychological implications of the shadow - exploring ideas of foreboding, internal conflict, passages into the unconsciousness, or other ephemeral interpretations.

Liquid ~ Sky

Opening Reception: To Be Announced
Exhibition Dates: June 27th - July 21st, 2020
Juror | Elizabeth Flinsch Editor: Shots Magazine

Liquid conforms to the shape of its container. The sky is an abstract sphere, centered on the earth. Liquid, Water, Sky and the liminal space between are by definition poetic and symbolic. Yet there are infinite iterations of liquid & sky: consider our human drive to master and contain liquids (pools, levies, faucets and bottles); idiomatic lamentations of “spilt milk” or “water under the bridge”– while also reaching upward in towering buildings, air planes, and rockets pushing skyward.

Praxis Gallery gallery presents photographic art that explores the ideas of liquid and sky in their myriad iterations; from landscapes to still life – from scientific to conceptual, Praxis seeks a broadly interpreted investigation of these forever flowing, forever ethereal ideas.

The Portrait

! EXTENDED !
Exhibition Dates: May 23rd - June 22nd, 2020

Juror | Carl Corey

 

In her book, Portraits and Persons, writer Cynthia Freeland describes three essential elements that constitute a portrait: “(1) a recognizable physical body (2) an inner life, i.e., some sort of psychological or mental states and (3) self-presentation, or the "posing.” Praxis Gallery presents photographic art that celebrates the aesthetic and conceptual considerations involved in the creation of the portrait: revealing personal narratives or new anthologies through the artistic representation of the subject.

"When a moment in front of me appears to be particularly special, whether it be by beauty or experience, I capture it. I usually find a reason to justify taking that photo - be it symmetry, or color or contrast - and it's my hope that my photography sheds light onto what I see and do on a daily basis.” Connor Franta

 

Praxis Gallery presents photographic art of varied genres and subject matters that represent the artist’s endeavor to reveal through the photographic process a personal declaration of visual significance - be it a celebration of pure aesthetic formalism, humor or conflict, fiction or fact, or any other literal or ephemeral lens-based investigation

THE STREETS

Exhibition Dates: Mar 20th, 2020 - April 14th, 2020
Juror | Robi Chakraborty

"Street Photography became recognized as a genre in its own right during the early 1930s. Street Photography is unique in the way it is associated with the photographer's skill in capturing something of the mystery and aura of everyday city living. The Street Photographer is then often likened to the historical figure of the flâneur: namely someone who mingles anonymously amongst the crowd observing and recording the ways the unsuspecting city

dweller interacts with his or her environment". www.theartstory.org

Praxis Gallery presents photographic art that explores the genre of street photography from all angles, including people, urban structure, and documentary subject matter.

 International Juried Photography Exhibition

Words, Words, Words

Opening Night: 6-8PM February 21st, 2020
Exhibition Dates: Feb 21st - March 17th, 2020
Juror | Dallas Crow

The old saying, “A picture is worth a thousand words,” seems to suggest that a photograph transcends language, but words have been a key part of many important photographers’ work—from the billboards and signs in many Walker Evans’ photos to Lee Friedlander’s 2019 book, Signs, for example.   The interplay of language and image can create a vivid sense of tension, irony, or poignance. The size and shapes of a font are visual aspects that can carry as much weight as any other aspect in the frame.

Praxis Gallery presents photographic art that includes written language as a fundamental aspect of the composition, including text in the form of signs or fragments of signs, handwriting scrawled over the photo, graffiti and palimpsests, just to name a few iterations of the theme.

EMPTY PLACES : ABANDONED SPACES

Juror | Lance Keimig

Through the visual representation of abandoned spaces, artifacts of history are at once fresh and new, ancient and decayed. The past continues to live in these forsaken, ruined, or empty spaces and we ask— Who were the people who lived and worked here? What were their lives like? What were their stories? What happened to them in these spaces?

Praxis Gallery presents photographic art that explores the visual and social significance of abandoned space - where derelict factories, churches, private houses or other empty places serve as the basis for creative investigation.
