Thanks. I tried submitting images, but the pay now button doesn't work... I sent an email asking them to look into it.

Andrew, I'll check into it on this end as well. Tomorrow is Mardi Gras so it may not get addressed until later in the week! :)

Hendrik, it is open to International the only stipulation being that the artist will be responsible for shipping their work to and from the gallery. It's a great opportunity to get your work seen by the man who wrote the book on Alternative processes.

Thom, thank you, that exactly was my thought, even if photogravure is the only process missing in the great book

Isn't Photogravure considered an Alternative Process? Even though it isn't in the book.

There is a complete paucity of information on the link ... or did I miss something? Is there to be a show? Will entries be judged from the digital files or will submissions be requested? etc., etc., etc.

At the bottom of the page is a "Click to Enter" which takes you to a sign up page for Entry Thingy. Once you set up an account (free) you will see all of the digital requirements.

Jim Graves

Yep, I did that ... but virtually no information except how to submit a digital print and where to send money.

Jim, I let the powers that be know your concerns. The Call should be adjusted soon to reflect that there will be an exhibition in the New Orleans Photo Alliance Gallery, 1111 St. Mary St. New Orleans, LA from Saturday, April 6 to Saturday, May 18.

anyway it is an old way to reproduce photographic images.

I have submitted some gravures and, at least, they were not rejected automatically :)

Thom, I was too optimistic - not of general interest, I wrote you a private mail

Deadline is Monday, March 3.

The juror is Christopher James, author of The Book of
Alternative Photographic Processes and the Chair of the photography

photographs have been exhibited in galleries and museums in this country
and abroad.

Is this an annual thing? I haven't done alternative processes in years, but it's one of those projects in the back of my head. I'd like to work towards this for next year if it is an annual event.

Thom Bennett

Not necessarily an annual exhibit. We try to have a wide-ranging variety of exhibitions.

OK I'm trying to upload images but the system is working poorly, if at all. The wheel spins and spins, but nothing seems to get through.
That's why the CAFE system is the best to use for entry processes.

Bruce, I checked and your entry is there for the juror to see. Sorry for the trouble. I'll suggest to the powers-that-be to look into the CAFE system.
