The Fine Art of Photography Eighth Annual Juried Photography Exhibition 2018 Prospectus THE FINE ART OF PHOTOGRAPHY EIGHTH ANNUAL JURIED PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION 2018 PROSPECTUS Categories: • Color • Black and White • Non-Traditional (Please note that the Judges’ assessment of which category an entry will be judged is final.) AwarDs: • $500 Best in Show, • Each Category: $250 First Place, $100 Second Place, • Two Honorable Mentions per category Color and Black and White Categories: This is traditional photography. The image has conventional post processing techniQues that enhance the image appearance without changing the pictorial content. Edits and/or effects that changes an image’s appearance from being a normal photograph may be categorized as Digitally Enhanced. Cropping, sharpening, and removal of obtrusive artifacts such as dust specks are allowed. Black and White includes monochromatic and sepia tones. Non-TraDitional Photography (incluDes the following) • Digitally EnhanceD: An image that does not meet the stricter reQuirements for the Color or Blank & White categories, or which has been digitally enhanced beyond the appearance of a photograph. It may have subjects or lighting added, removed or otherwise modified to create the image. • Vintage anD Alternative Printing Processes: Despite having been pioneered decades ago, alternative- printing processes — the photogram, daguerreotype, tintype, collodion, Mordançage and others — are still widely practiced. The 21st century has witnessed increased popularity among these and other organic printing methods, as photographers gravitate to the uniQue, unpredictable and fascinating print characteristics achievable through these time-honored techniQues. This is the perfect opportunity to show off your darkroom skill and creative vision. • Pinhole/Plastic Camera Imagery: This category includes analog photography, e.g. pinhole cameras and plastic cameras like the Holga, Diana and Lomo. The supposed “defects” of these cameras — light leaks, soft focus, vignetting, diffraction, bring a specific character to this field of photography.

Allow 24 hours for the powder to fully dissolve. If using the Cyanotype Sensitizer Set, simply fill each bottle with water, shake and allow 24 hours for the powders to dissolve. 3. In subdued lighting, mix equal parts SOLUTION A and SOLUTION B to create the cyanotype sensitizer. Mix only the amount you immediately need, as the sensitizer is stable just 2-4 hours. if you have the Sensitizer Set START HERE 4. Coat paper or fabric with the sensitizer and allow to air dry in the dark. Paper may be double-coated for denser prints. Fabric may be coated or dipped in the sensitizer. Jacquard’s Cyanotype Fabric Sheets and Mural Fabrics are pre-treated with the sensitizer (as above) and come ready to expose. 5. Make exposures in sunlight (1-30 minutes, depending on conditions) or under a UV light source, placing ob- jects or a film negative on the coated surface to create an image. (Note: Over-exposure is almost always preferred to under-exposure.) The fabric will look bronze in color once fully exposed. 6. Process prints in a tray or bucket of cool water. Wash for at least 5 minutes, changing the water periodically, if you have until the water runs clear.

  • Making Photos with the Sun
    MAKING PHOTOS WITH THE SUN For her exhibition at Storm King this year, artist Kiki Smith made this artwork, called river light. It is made up of nine brilliant blue flags arranged in a circle. Each flag is an image of sunlight sparkling on water. Kiki took these images from videos she made of the East River in New York City as she walked from her apartment to a nearby pool to swim. To make her flags, Kiki Smith used an almost 180-year- old photography process called cyanotype. A cyanotype is a kind of photograph made without a camera. It is made by coating paper or fabric in chemicals that change color when exposed to light. Then, an object or a transparent photo negative is placed on the treated paper and exposed to the sunlight. Everywhere the sunlight reaches, the paper turns deep blue, but everywhere that it is covered up, where the sun does not reach, stays white. Originally, cyanotypes were used to copy text and architectural drawings. Even though they’re no longer copied by cyanotype, that’s why building plans are still sometimes called blueprints! Anna Atkins was the first person to use the cyanotype process to record other kinds of things beside text and building plans. In 1843 she began placing algae and plant specimens directly onto cyanotype paper and exposing them to light to record their exact size and shape. She included over three hundred of these photograms, or photos made by placing objects directly onto photo-sensitive paper, in the very first book illustrated entirely with photographs, Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions.

THE FIRST USE OF BROMINE IN DAGUERREOTYPE. By Major-general J. Waterhouse, I. S. C, IN “Photography.” HAVING had occasion recently to refer to Volume XIII of the American Journal of Photography for 1892, I was very much interested to find in it a series of papers by the editor, Mr. Julius F. Sachse, on “Early Daguerreotype Days,” in which he brings forward evidence to show that bromine was first used as an accelerator in daguerreotype by Dr. Paul Beck Goddard, of Philadelphia, in December, 1839, about a year before Mr. John F. Goddard published his independent discovery in this country. Mr. Sachse further claims for Philadelphia the honor of being the mother city of photography in America, and the birthplace of photographic portraiture, the bromo- iodized plate, and the instantaneous photograph. The specific claims he makes on these points are: 1. That Joseph Saxton, of Philadelphia, made the first heliograph in America, October 16, 1839. 2. That Robert Cornelius, of Philadelphia, obtained the first picture of a human face by Daguerre’s process, in the world, November, 1839. 3.

  • Spencer Museum of Art Art Cart at Home: Cyanotypes
    Spencer Museum of Art Art Cart at Home: Cyanotypes Anna Atkins Barbara Kasten Annie Wight Robinia pseud-acacia America untitled (blue abstract - crinkled netting) untitled (still life) circa 1851–1854 1974 1900 Spencer Museum of Art Spencer Museum of Art Kenneth Spencer Research Library This activity blends art and science to explore the photographic process called a cyanotype. Look at the examples above from the Spencer Museum of Art and Kenneth Spencer Research Library’s collections and learn more about each image below. What is a cyanotype? A cyanotypes is a type of photograph that’s easy to spot by its blue, or cyan, color. To make a cyanotype, a piece of paper is coated with a mixture of chemicals that are sensitive to sunlight (specifically ultraviolet radiation). Sunlight triggers a chemical reaction to form Prussian blue. When found objects or photographic negatives are placed directly on top of the treated paper and exposed to sunlight, areas that are covered will remain white, while anything not covered will turn blue. After exposure, the print is rinsed in water and the photograph is hung to dry. Cyanotypes go by several other names: blueprint, Prussian blue, ferroprussiate, sun print, photogram. They were most commonly used between 1842 and 1950. Anna Atkins: Between 1843 and 1853, Atkins used the cyanotype process to create her botanical study British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions, the first to be photographically printed and illustrated. What do you notice first? What details do you see? Barbara Kasten: Kasten used a piece of netting to create this image. What objects do you have at home that might make interesting shapes and patterns? Annie Wight: This cyanotype is from a collection of photographs depicting Wight's home in Douglas County, Kansas, showing plants around the yard and still lifes in the home.

  • Earliest Techniques Expert Group: Daguerrotypes, Salt Prints, Albumen Prints
    Earliest Techniques Expert Group: Daguerrotypes, Salt Prints, Albumen Prints Daguerreotypes are sharply defined, highly reflective, one-of-a-kind photographs on silver-coated copper plates, packaged behind glass and kept in protective cases. Introduced in 1839 by Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre, the daguerreotype process was the first commercially successful photographic process, and is distinguished by a remarkable clarity of pictorial detail. Daguerreotypes were popular through the 1840s and into the 1850s, especially for portrait photography. Salt prints are the earliest photographic prints on paper. They are often distinguished by their lack of precise image details and matte surface. Salted paper print images are embedded in the fibers of the paper, instead of being suspended on the surface of the paper, as in the later albumen prints and gelatin silver prints. Salted paper prints were "printed-out" in contact with paper negatives; the image was formed solely by the action of light on metal salts, without chemical developers. Albumen prints are the most common type of photographs from the 19th century. The process involves coating a sheet of paper with albumen (egg white), which gives the paper a glossy, smooth surface. The albumenized paper is sensitized with a solution of silver nitrate, then exposed in contact with a negative. Albumen prints are "printed-out," meaning that the image is created by the action of light alone on light-sensitive paper, without the use of chemical developers. One-of-a-kind Images Expert Group: Tintypes, Ambrotypes, Collodian Negatives A tintype is a non-reflective, one-of-a-kind photograph on a sheet of iron coated with a dark enamel.

I say: no, it was the chemists. For the noeme “That-has-been” was possible only on the day when a scientific circumstance (the discovery that silver halogens were sensitive to light) made it possible to recover and print directly the luminous rays emitted by a variously lighted object. The photograph is literally an emanation of the referent. ROLAND BARTHES¹ Photographs are both pictures of things and emanations from 05 things. Over the last twenty years all the buzz has been on the ‘picturing’ side of photography: we are astounded by the latest estimate of the astronomical number of smartphone images uploaded to the internet every second, we are shocked by the latest sickening images tweeted from a violent war zone, we are awed by the majestic detail in the latest mural photograph mounted behind pristine acrylic in an art museum, and we are habituated to the sleek look of digital images — either Photoshopped into high-dynamic-range conformity or with one selection from a convenient menu of retro Instagram- filters laid on top.

  • Reconsidering New Objectivity: Albert Renger-Patzsch and Die
    RECONSIDERING NEW OBJECTIVITY: ALBERT RENGER-PATZSCH AND DIE WELT IST SCHÖN by MARGARET E. HANKEL (Under the Direction of NELL ANDREW) ABSTRACT In December of 1928, the Munich-based publisher, Kurt Wolff released a book with a new concept: a collection of one-hundred black and white photographs by Albert Renger-Patzsch. Titled Die Welt ist schön, the book presented a remarkable diversity of subjects visually unified by Renger-Patzsch’s straight-forward aesthetic. While widely praised at the time of its release, the book exists in relative obscurity today. Its legacy was cemented by the negative criticism it received in two of Walter Benjamin’s essays, “Little History of Photography” (1931) and “The Author as Producer” (1934). This paper reexamines the book in within the context of its reception, reconsidering the book’s legacy and its ties to the New Objectivity movement in Weimar.
