PhotoPlace Open, 2012

The exhibition catalog for the PhotoPlace Open 2012 is now available directly from Blurb books. Softcover: $27.95, plus shipping.

PhotoPlace Gallery is pleased to welcome Kyohei Abe as the juror for the third annual PhotoPlace Open. For PhotoPlace Open, 2012, he selected forty photos for exhibition at PhotoPlace Gallery. He also chose an additional thirty-five photos for the gallery’s “Online Annex.” All selected work will be included in a full-color exhibition catalog available for purchase.

Juror's Statement:
It was absolutely delightful to review such an amazing group of
photographs which displayed a range of styles, interpretations, content,
and genres of photographic explorations. Prominent considerations that
tied my selections together were the artists' personal visions,
their ability to create and define our contemporary lives through their
photographs.
The artists whose photographs are highlighted here inspired me because
many were not bonded to photographic traditions of the past, whether
exterior or interior space, landscapes, or portraits. These photographers
have all successfully conveyed inspiring and unique perspectives on our
contemporary world with their voices.
Kyohei Abe
