CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS

WHAT

In its 36th year, SF Camerawork continues to support emerging and mid-career artists through imaginative and experimental programming. In keeping with the egalitarian organizational principles introduced through through last year's member exhibition, we are interested in seeing new works by members that reveal a personal philosophy or understanding of self-portraiture broadly conceived. Roll Call seeks to bring together a who's who of SF Camerawork.

WHEN

Deadline for all work is Saturday, April 17th

WHERE

San Francisco Camerawork, organized by Tanner Borskey

WHY

1. Exhibition opens: Thursday, May 6th
2. A reproduction of your contribution, name, and personal website URL will be included in the exhibition catalogue, available mid-summer 2010 via blurb.com. The catalogue will use the high school yearbook as a framing device.

4. Artists' personal webiste URLs will be included on the artists’ links page as a resource for curators and arts professionals.
5. At the close of the exhibition, works will be randomly redistributed to participants alongside SF Camerawork Publications’ fall mailing.
