We are looking for people whose photographic message is powerful and original.
We are looking for interesting stories.
We are looking for mobile photographers with a vision.
We want to put the spotlight on four mobile photographers who have something to say with their images.
In other words, this open call is not a best photo contest.
eyephoneography is now accepting submissions for its third series of exhibitions. Like its predecessors, eyephoneography #3 focuses on the iPhoneographer’s body of work, rather than each individual image. Only a handful of iPhoneographers are selected — four will be selected for this edition. The exhibit always generates a lot of publicity in Spain and Europe. This is a very prestigious exhibition.
Previous iPhoneographers showcased in the eyephoneography exhibitions are Sion Fullana, Marco La Civita, Jordi V. Pou, Matt Burrows, ©arlein, Greg Schmigel, Isabelle “MissPixels” Gagne, and Stefano Giogli.
One of the facets of the eyephoneography events is that the selection committees are typically mostly from outside the iPhoneography community (Disclosure: I was on the selection committee for eyephoneography #2). Edition #3’s very international selection committee includes Terry Smith, Professor of Contemporary Art History and Theory, University of Pittsburgh; Montse Cuesta, Director, Architectural Digest (AD España); Natasha Egan, Director, Museum of Contemporary Photography (MoCP), Chicago; Ercole Egizi, Founder & Creative Director, Kennedy+Castro advertising agency; iPhoneographer Attilio Lauria, Director, Photo Library of the Province of Cosenza (Italy); Giuseppe Veneziano, Painter and Visual Artist; and eyephoneography Founder Rocio Nogales.
Submissions are free and will be accepted through February 3rd, 2012 at 23:29 (GMT+1) — that’s 5:30 PM Eastern Standard Time in New York City.
More information can be found on eyephoneography’s website, including more details, submission instructions, and some indications of what the selection committee is looking for.
The eyephoneography #3 exhibition will open this April 2012 in the gallery of the recently inaugurated Castellana FNAC flagship store in the heart of Madrid.
