ABOUT “WOMEN IN PHOTOGRAPHY” ONLINE SHOWCASE:
There are more women working in the contemporary photo world then ever before. Their methods, choice of subject matter, visual language, and processes run the gamut of artistic possibility. What unites them is their passion and the effort they devote to creating extraordinary bodies of work. Women in Photography is a showcase for this work. It is also a resource for photographers, editors, curators, gallery owners, and viewers alike to discover and enjoy the work of female artists. By mixing the work of emerging photographers with artists that have achieved high levels of success within fine art and commercial worlds, the project is designed to open a visual dialogue and create a venue to share work, support, and ideas.
Women in Photography is co-curated by amy elkins and cara phillips.
It will present a solo exhibition of work from select photographers every other Tuesday of the month.
