AN EXHIBITION AT DECODE GALLERY
GRAYSCALE
Black and white photography still thrives today, despite the emergence of color photography in the 1890’s. From deep blacks, nostalgic grays to brilliant whites the genre relies on form, lines, and shape to tell the story. As shades of gray continue to inspire photographic artists, we are looking to honor the art in this group exhibition.
ACCEPTANCE
At least 26 images will be selected by the juror for exhibition at Decode Gallery. The gallery handles all printing for accepted photographers for free, we print professionally on an Epson printer with Epson Ultra Premium Luster paper. We will only print one exhibition print, after the show the print will be archived in a flat file for 2 years. We feature museum quality 22”x 22” inch white frames. We have many sizes of precut white mats: (a) 11” x 11” (b) 10” x 15” (c) 11” x 15” (d) 12” x 15″ and more. We will adjust the digitally submitted final hi-res images size (never crop) for best presentation in the mats.
If the photographer has selected to list the exhibition print for sale and someone inquires, the photographer will be notified immediately. All rights to the image file and print remain with the photographer. Decode Gallery takes a 40% commission on all sales, 60% goes to the photographer.
