I'm honored to be a part of the first DCist Exposed Photography Show; additionally, thanks to Amanda of Creative DC for the plug!
From the press release:
DCist.com is pleased to announce our first ever DCist Exposed Photography Show at the Warehouse Arts Complex from March 9 -16, 2007. More than 35 local photographers, both amateur and professional, were chosen out of over 200 who submitted their work for the show through the DCist Flickr site. Every day DCist.com selects photos from this user-generated photo pool to use in its daily coverage of local news, arts and entertainment, politics, food and sports.
The exhibit will showcase new talent as they reveal the city to us through the eyes of people who live and work in the D.C. metro area. In a city too often seen purely as a collection of federal government buildings or a destination for tourists, these photographers capture the local music, art, architecture, and urban surroundings that give Washington, D.C. its unique cultural vibrancy.
An opening reception will be held Friday, March 9, 2007 from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Warehouse is located at 1017-1021 7th Street NW, between New York Ave. and L St. in downtown Washington, DC, across the street from the new Washington Convention Center.
You can view the list of participants, with links to their photos, here (I'm "wageslaves" on Flickr). Do say hello if you make it out on Friday!
Can one buy the images at the shos? If so, it has the potential to be a huge moneymaker with the Washington Home and Garden Show going on at the Convention Center adross the street. . .
ReplyDeleteYup - all the photos on display are on sale. The prices most of us decided on are just a little above the cost to print, mat, and frame the photos - but how cool would it be to sell it?
ReplyDeletejaime,
ReplyDeletewhoa, you're lucky. two of my friends (who are fine photogs, in my humble opinion) submitted photos and didn't get in. congratulations.
