"Dark Frames." A Black & White Photography Virtual Exhibition

"Dark Frames." A Black & White Photography Virtual Exhibition

"Dark Frames" invites photographers to showcase their most compelling black and white images in an exhibition celebrating the timeless artistry of monochrome photography.

This open call seeks to explore how the absence of colour can enhance visual storytelling and reveal new dimensions in photographic expression.

Throughout history, black and white photography has been the cornerstone of the medium, capturing moments and stories before the advent of colour film. From classic portraits and historical events to everyday scenes, monochrome photography has a unique ability to focus on the fundamental aspects of light, shadow, and texture.

NYC4PA CALL FOR ENTRY - BLACK AND WHITE

Photography, in its infancy, was entirely about black and white or monochrome images.  Color was an after print add on. NYC4PA, with this call, is once again focusing on one of our favorite themes - Black and White celebrating those images still so central to the field of photography despite the introduction of color film and the vast array of image capture and post process adjustment software.

Send us your monochrome images where all the emotion, texture and beauty are expressed in shades from white to dark. No matter if your original image was shot with tri x, a digital SLR, or your phone, if the end product is a terrific monochrome image (Black and White or Sepia), it fits the call.

As with all NYC4PA calls all 2D photo mediums are welcome.
