Strength and Resilience

Studio Montclair’s Black History and Women’s History Month Exhibition. 
Studio Montclair is pleased to announce an Open Call for an exhibit celebrating Black History and Women’s History Month: Strength and Resilience.
Strength and resilience are powerful concepts that are similar but not the same. Strength signifies endurance and toughness, while resilience embodies adaptability and flexibility — qualities that are integral to Black character and history. We invite you to submit artwork that captures either or both essential themes.

NYC4PA BLACK AND WHITE 2022

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.
