Theme and Eligibility
“Photography as Art” and “Photographer
as Artist.” Since the formation of this exhibition
in 1991, this theme has remained constant. We encourage
submission of a body of work in any photographic medium
from historic to digital in order to best represent
your creative expression. Each artist’s photographic
images are reviewed by the team of three jurors simultaneously.
Following group discussion, images are either selected,
not accepted or held out for further consideration.
Our experience with jury teams has been that major consideration
is given to the body of work revealing expression of
the artist’s personal vision. For instance, if
the jury is viewing a group of architectural images
from one artist, they are able to choose the best image
or images from the group.
About the Jurors
This year’s jurors are Charles Callaghan, professional
photographer; Chris Meck, professional photographer;
and John Woodin, Adjunct Assistant Professor of Photography
at The University of the Arts.
Each year the Exhibition features
unique works from a wide range of talented sources of
all ages, including local artists as well as those from
other countries. There is even a separate high school
competition. There are no limitations on subject matter
or process. We encourage the submission of quality work
in any media, involving a photographic process - including
black & white, color, and mixed media; in standard,
historic, experimental and digital processes. PMPE 2010 Exhibition Schedule All Entry Dates
