Selected for “Landscapes” Exhibit at the Ft. Collins Center for Fine Art Photography!

Approaching Inferno. Sugarloaf Mountain, Colorado, 2012

Whoopee!

I have tried several times to get juried in to a show at the Ft. Collins Center for Fine Art Photography (C4FAP) but have never been successful–until now!

It is quite an honor to be selected by the C4FAP as it has, since its opening in 2004, established itself as a serious venue for high-quality, national and international-level, fine art photography. So, for some time now, exhibiting there has been one of my artistic goals.

This is definitely a step up for me.

The dandy details:

–The Ft. Collins Center for Fine Art Photography is located at 400 North College Avenue in Ft. Collins, Colorado.

–Some 2,900 images from 640 different photographers were initially submitted for consideration. The final selection will feature 50 photographs by–if I have counted right–49 artists from all over the U.S. (plus three from the U.K. and one from Denmark).

–The exhibit is called “Landscapes” and runs from May 6 through June 10, 2016.

–The juror is Natasha Egan, the Executive Director and Curator of the Museum of Contemporary Photography at Columbia College Chicago (MoCP).

–The opening artist reception is on Friday, May 6, 2016, from 6-9p.m. If you are in this neck o’ the forest on that date, come on out!

–The one piece of mine they have selected is shown above: “Approaching Inferno” (2012), a digital capture made from an early morning hillside perch high up on Sugarloaf Mountain, above Boulder, Colorado. It is currently printed at 18″ x 12″ but I will test a slightly larger version–perhaps 24″x16″. The image originally had another title, but I prefer this current one.
