 International Juried Photography Exhibition

DIPTYCH~OPEN THEME

Opening reception: Sat. Apr. 19, 6–8PM
Exhibition Dates: Apr. 19 - May 10 2025

A photographic diptych is a work of art that consists of two photographs that are arranged side by side. Diptychs can convey a story by connecting seemingly unrelated images. The use of two photographs side by side can allow the photographer to experiment with different compositions and to create a sense of balance or symmetry. The two images in a diptych can represent duality or opposites. They allow the photographer to explore different themes, narratives, compositions, and contrasts.

 

Praxis presents photographic art that explores these concepts; creating new meanings and aesthetic engagement by juxtaposing two images side by side.  Juried by: Ross Anderson

 International Juried Photography Exhibition

STAGED & CONSTRUCTED

Opening Reception: Apr. 19, 11:59PM CST
Exhibition Dates: Apr. 19 - May 10, 2025

Photography is more than documentation—it is creation. Staged & Constructed - The Art of Setting the Scene explores the artistry of staged, propped, and deliberately composed photographs, where every element within the frame is purposefully arranged. This theme highlights the orchestration of sets, props, lighting, composition, and subject to construct immersive visual narratives.

 

From cinematic tableaux to intimate theatrical vignettes, this exhibition showcases images that blur the line between reality and artifice. Whether inspired by theater, film, or pure imagination, these works reveal the power of photographic illusion, inviting viewers into carefully crafted worlds. Curated by: Praxis Directors

 International Juried Photography Exhibition

BLACK & WHITE

Opening Reception: Sat. Mar 15, 6–8PM
Exhibition Dates: Mar 15 - April 12, 2025

More than half a century after the advent of color film, black and white & monochromatic photography continues to capture our collective imagination. Utilizing tone, contrast, texture and shape, monochromatic photography strips its subject to only the most essential visual elements; revealing a sense of soul, substance and meaning – separate from the shifting sentiments, symbolism and cultural associations of color imagery.

 

Praxis Gallery presents the submission of photographic works that demonstrate the fundamental qualities that make black & white and monochromatic photography an enduring, contemporary art form. Juror: Ann Jastrab

THE LIFE OF COLOR

Opening Night Reception: March 16, 6-8PM, 2024
Exhibition dates: Mar, 16 – April 13, 2024

Color is a dynamic dimension, defined by its three unique components: Hue, Value, and Saturation. These elements serve as the fundamental building blocks in the poetic and symbolic realm of color within creative photography. It's more than a spectacle; it's a psychological journey. Colors evoke moods, thoughts, and concepts with their mere presence, tapping into psychology, biology, and culture.

 

While black and white photography has its own artistic merits and has been historically significant, color photography is widely embraced for its ability to convey a broad range of information and emotional nuances.

 

Praxis Gallery presents photographic art that explores the implications of color as a central device in the creation of compelling photographic art. Curated by Praxis Directors
