Guidelines for selected entries
In order to maintain a cohesive presentation, we request that selected entries abide by the following guidelines,
which are crucial to the success of the show:
Please include with framed artwork the following information:
1. A notarized copy of the artist's birth certificate, passport, or other official identification with a birth date.
2. For photographers under 18 years of age, a parental authorization allowing them to participate in the show.
3. Title of artwork (including the date each image was taken, if possible),
4. Capture and printing process used,
5. Price (or NFS mention),
6. Edition number (if any)
Artwork to be displayed in the Emerging Photographer 2008 show must abide by to the following guidelines:
1. Framing: The frame must be metal or wood. Frames should be consistent across each body of work.
To ensure longevity of the artwork, the enclosure of the frame should be free of any acidic materials such as corrugated board fillers.
2. Matting: The matting shall be white or neutral color. Mat dimensions should be even around but may be bottom-weighted
up to one inch. A reveal border is allowed. Non-matted images should be kept away from the glazing with spacers (unless
they are face-mounted to acrylic).
3. Print: Images that show pixelation, posterization, or other unwanted artefacts not clearly present in the digital
submission are not acceptable.
4. Shipping: If you are shipping from out of town, we recommend you use plexiglass for glazing to avoid breakage. Artwork
that you wish to have the Darkroom return via mail MUST be accompanied by a prepaid carrier label.
5. Sales/ Commissions: Sales are encouraged and proceeds from the show will be distributed as follows: 60% to the Artist
and 40% to the Darkroom.
Accepted work: The framed artwork must be delivered to The Darkroom no later than Saturday September 27th, 2008.
The Darkroom reserves the right to reject any work that does not meet the foregoing guidelines. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns.
