Please read the
guidelines carefully. Most questions are answered there already.
(1)
Is it limited to professional photographers or can photographers of any skill level enter? Any photographer of any level may enter.
(2)
Did the photos submitted have to be taken in Louisiana as long as the photographer was and still is living in Louisiana?Photos do NOT need to have been taken in Louisiana. They may be of any subject, style, or photographic medium. Eligible artists should live in Louisiana or have been living there before being displaced by hurricanes Katrina or Rita.
(3)
In the Guidelines you ask that in the entry email we include the dimensions. Does this mean what size the printed art for the show will be?Yes, we need to know the size of final art for space considerations.
(4)
What size prints can we submit to the show is there a minimum or maximum?Prints of any size are eligible.
(5)
In the hard copy we send in do you want a copy of the pictures with it or just a list of them? Jpegs of your submission would help, but are not required.
(6)
Do the pictures have to be all the same theme or can I send in pictures of different things?Photos may be of any subject, style, or photographic medium. However when submitting to juried shows it is usually to your advantage to chose images from a coherent body of work.
(7)
Will the photos be returned to the photographer or will these photos be sold? Or is that up to the photographer to sell them?We hope to work with the CAC to facilitate the sale of the artwork, but typically work at the CAC is for exhibition and not for sale. Artists will need to arrange for the return or pick up of their work.
(8)
Do the photos have to be Katrina related?No.
(9)
Can you send me a list of everything I need to send with the photos just so I am sure I send exactly what I need?E-mail submissions MUST include:
1) Up to 10 jpegs, at 72dpi, with largest dimension at 10 inches. Use a
sequential naming system for your submissions (i.e.,
001_YourName_ImageTitle, 002_YourName_ImageTitle, etc.)
2) Your complete contact information.
3) A list of your submissions including the jpeg number, title,
dimensions, medium, and date created.
OPTIONAL additions:
4) Artist Statement, resume, bio.
(10)
If I have read the instructions correctly, I need to e-mail you the photos and snail mail a check for $35 with additional information. Do you also need a CD of the photos snail mailed to you?Email the submissions and related info. Mail the entry fee with a copy of the same information, either in printed form or in a cd, so that we can match your submissions to your entry fee.
