The theme for FotoFest 2010 is “contemporary work about the United States” and will be curated by invited curators (so you can’t submit to that one). However ,there are many galleries (non-profit, commercial, artist run), corporate spaces, retail spaces and restaurant that also show art and you can apply to them by a juried selection process. But you most do work quickly so it is delivered by February 9th.
Normal sort of requirements for a mail-in submission process. You’ll need to submit 10 images on CD, CV, exhibition requirements, and space preferences. Then the FotoFest staff will have a jury process to narrow the field and present the work to the participating spaces who will make their own decision from this culled list.
They are looking for “coherent bodies of work” that have a clear idea or concept behind them. My advice is to edit tightly (and make it much better than the snapshot in this posting above). All types of photographic processes are accepted.
Submissions must be recieved in the office by: Monday, February 9, 2009
FOTOFEST2010 is scheduled for March 12 – April 25, 2010
