Theme | Landscapes Juror: Wendi Schneider
Theme: Landscapes | Juror: Wendi Schneider
“Landscape photography shows spaces within the world, sometimes vast and unending, but other times microscopic. Landscape photographs typically capture the presence of nature but can also focus on man-made features or disturbances of landscapes. Many landscape photographs show little or no human activity and are created in the pursuit of a pure, unsullied depiction of nature, devoid of human influence—instead featuring subjects such as strongly defined landforms, weather, ambient light and other sublime elements. Beyond purely aesthetic considerations, landscapes often contain intensely personal and emotional subjectivities; evidence of secret histories of fondness, love, and nurturing - or of past emotional turbulence, loss, longing and regret.
Praxis Gallery seeks photographic artwork that explores a broad, interpretive, and personal investigation of the landscape - both as a place, or an idea - as a literal expression or conceptual iteration. All genres, capture types, black & white and color, traditional and non-traditional photographic and digital post-production processes are welcome for submission.
SE Center Open
Open Call is just that, an open theme - all subjects, The SE Center is looking for images of any theme, media, digital, analog, or antique processes that show your best work.
Analog and digital manipulation in all its forms welcome. Monochrome or color, all subjects, analog, digital or antique processes, photographers of all skill levels and locations are welcome.
Our Juror for Open Call is Coco Conroy. Coco Conroy is the director of Jackson Fine Art, a gallery in Atlanta, GA specializing in 20th-century and contemporary photography. She has been with the gallery since 2014, and advises Atlanta clients and focuses on local collaborations.
35-40 Selected images will hang in the SE Center’s main gallery space for approximately one month with the opportunity to be invited for a solo show at a later date. In addition, selected images are featured in the SE Center social media accounts (FB, IG, Twitter) and an archived, online slide show. A video walkthrough of each exhibition is also featured and archived.

Theme: Don’t Make Me Laugh | Guest Curator: Laura Valenti
Spinning humor out of tragedy is by no means a new phenomenon. Humor and irony are an historic way of processing fear and tragedy.
Humor and absurdity provide a healthy outlet for some people to diffuse feelings of doom and uncertainty - helping people struggling with depression and anxiety of conflicts such as our current global pandemic and civic unrest.
"Human beings are wired to cope, and we're wired to be funny -- even darkly humorous."
"Using humor as a coping strategy and connecting with other people who have that same approach has been greatly normalized through the digitization of our culture," Andrews says. "Now, people who use humor as a coping strategy have instantaneous access to millions of other people, and we find our niches and networks." Bart Andrews
Praxis Gallery seeks the submission of photographic works that explore humor and irony in its varied styles including: candid moments, satire, dark humor, surreal, dry and deadpan just to name a few of the many iterations of this genre. All genres, capture types, black & white and color, traditional and non-traditional photographic and digital post-production processes are welcome for submission.

Yosemite Renaissance 37
Yosemite Renaissance 37 - Call to Artists
The Yosemite Renaissance Exhibition is an annual exhibit that offers an opportunity for artists inspired by Yosemite and the California Sierra Nevada region to display and promote their art. The exhibit opens at the historic Yosemite National Park Museum Gallery in the heart of Yosemite Valley, the travels to Kings Art Center in Hanford, Carnegie Arts Center in Turlock, and Yosemite Gateway Art Center in Oakhurst.
Awards
$4,000 in cash awards will be announced at the opening reception at the Yosemite National Park Museum Gallery.
Yosemite Renaissance is a non-profit art organization founded in 1985 to encourage artists to create diverse interpretations of Yosemite National Park and the surrounding Sierra Nevada region. The organization seeks to inspire a new generation of people to understand, preserve and protect our wild lands and natural places.
Philosophy and Approach
For over 150 years, artists have played an important role in the establishment of our state and national parks, inspiring people to visit iconic natural sites, and to protect our natural resources.
Subject matter must be related to the landscape, environment, wildlife and people of Yosemite National Park and the Sierra Nevada region. Both representational and non-representational submissions are allowed. We encourage artist who apply to celebrate the beauty and wonder of nature through art, but also to consider and explore environmental issues, ecology, biology, forestry, current events, political, spiritual and cultural themes.
Contributing artists should be aware of the geographic range of the show. While the nexus of the exhibit is Yosemite, the scope of the show also includes Sequoia National Park, Sierra National Forest, Ansel Adams Wilderness, Mono Lake, Bodie, the White Mountains, and more. The high Sierra, east side and west side foothills and canyons from Lake Tahoe to Tehachapi are all included! The area is huge, consisting of thousands of acres of rugged peaks, deep valleys, forests, lakes and streams. If your work is inspired by these places, it will be considered.
Mastery of traditional media, technical expertise, style and personal vision are important factors in the selection process. Yosemite Renaissance also encourages innovation. Jurors will consider the use of new tools, technologies, materials and techniques.
Black, White, Monochrome
Monochrome photography, images produced with a single hue, rather than recording the colors of the object that was photographed. The SE Center is looking for all forms of Monochrome imagery, black-and-white and toned photography- all subjects, analog, digital or antique processes, photographers of all skill levels and locations are welcome.
Analog and digital manipulation in all its forms welcome. Black, White & Monochrome, all subjects, analog, digital or antique processes, photographers of all skill levels and locations are welcome.
Our Juror for Black, White & Monochrome is Douglas Beasley. Douglas Beasley’s personal vision explores the spiritual and emotional aspects of people and place and is concerned with how the sacred is recognized and expressed in everyday life.
After receiving a BFA from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, he worked for several prominent commercial photo studios as a photo assistant and darkroom slave. Both helped him develop a appreciation for attention to detail and technical proficiency but left him longing for artistic self-expression. He then opened his own studio in Minneapolis, MN emphasizing commercial and editorial fashion. As a strong feminist, he considers himself the world’s most unlikely fashion photographer but greatly enjoyed the creativity and spontaneity of fashion photography. This evolved into shooting extensively throughout the country and internationally for various advertising, educational, public service and non-profit clients. Doug currently works on fine-art based commercial projects around the world.
35-40 Selected images will hang in the SE Center’s main gallery space for approximately one month with the opportunity to be invited for a solo show at a later date. In addition, selected images are featured in the SE Center social media accounts (FB, IG, Twitter) and an archived, online slide show. A video walkthrough of each exhibition is also featured and archived.

NYC4PA PORTALS 2021
“She Came in Through the Bathroom Window” sang the Beatles
“Lookin’ Out My Backdoor” sang Creedence Clearwater Revival
Doors and windows and arches and frames and tunnels are so much a part of our lives. There are so many ways to think about them. We can look at them, or through them. We can poke our hand out the window to test the weather, or just see a wonderful scene a little differently when framed by an arch or array of tree limbs in a park.
For this call your images can focus on the "portal" itself like a closed door or a wonderful windowsill or the view through the portal to the other side. Does it frame the main subject of the photograph or does it add another dimension, such as the distortions of old glass or reflections in windowpanes.
Once again, we invite you to be creative and have fun in the process.
As with all calls, all 2D photographic art is accepted.
Abstracts, Impressions and Fantasy
You are challenged to celebrate the New Year by creating lively, imaginative works on a broad theme. Anything goes except stark realism. This applies to photography and 3D pieces as well. All media welcome! Works MUST be for sale.
This is a member-only show. Members may submit up to 5 pieces by Dec. 10. Works will be juried and judged for prizes. Works are accepted into the show as space allows. Judging will be not be by specified categories. Prizes are as follows: 1st place $200, 2nd place $100, 3rd place $50 and People’s Choice $50 (selected at Jan. 20 Art Walk. Honorable mentions will receive a ribbon.
Note on Framing: Any canvas less than 1" thick or with unpainted sides must be framed. Wood panels also must be framed. Canvas paintings that are more than 1" thick and gallery wrapped with the sides painted do not require a frame. Cradled wood panels do not require framing.
Waiver of Responsibility:
I agree to release the CCAA, Civic Partners, volunteers, contractors, subcontractors, the City of Modesto or any other associate of the CCAA & Mistlin Gallery from liability or responsibility for damage, loss or theft of any artwork. I understand the gallery has two commission levels: 25% for docents who volunteer twice a month and 40% for all other artists on all sales made during or as a result of the show. Art work must be ready to hang with wire. The CCAA and the Mistlin Gallery reserve the right to remove any entry from the show not deemed in the best interest of the CCAA, the community, or CCAA sponsors. I give permission to use submitted images for purposes of advertising. I agree to pay a storage charge of $5.00 per day should I fail to pick up my artwork from the gallery within the official pick-up period designated for this show. Additionally, I understand that after 30 days, said artwork will become the sole property of the CCAA.
NYC4PA TREES 2021
Partridge in a pear tree
Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree
I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree
There are references to trees in music, literature, proverbs, etc. But they are also an iconic visual as a standalone item next to the house in a children’s drawing or in groups of every size from oases to huge forests.
In the forest and the jungle they create whole environments. Standing alone on hillsides they create lovely shadows. Trees can be tall and straight like a winter pine or bend in the wind. Limbs and branches create wonderful patterns against the sky. A tree will support a tire swing for a child on a hot day; provide sturdy posts to tie up the pet pup or hold a hammock off the ground, as well as support a backyard laundry line. In winter snow covered trees create beautiful landscapes.
