Appalachian Mountain Photography Competition
Rock Castle Gorge, Patrick County, VirginiaI'm a few months late adding this entry for any aspiring photographers to enter the competition. It is unfortunate because some of our HS contributors have outstanding shutter skills and would have stood a good chance at making the show. Non the less, the 4th Annual Appalachian Mountain Photography Competition Exhibition opens Saturday, March 2, on the campus of Appalachian State University and will remain open through June 2. Hopefully, many of you reading this will be able to take in the imagery, be inspired to capture unique views of our mountains and share them with the public in the 2008 competition.
While you are at ASU, wander over from the Mezzanine Gallery to the Main Gallery of the Turchin Center for the Visual Arts and take in the other exhibit opening on March 2, The Graphic Imperative: International Posters for Peace, Social Justice and the Environment 1965-2005. From the show's web site: This exhibition is a select retrospective of 40 years of international sociopolitical posters. Themes include dissent, liberation, racism, sexism, human rights, civil rights, environmental and health concerns, AIDS, war, literacy, and tolerance, collectively providing a window to an age of great change. Focusing on the issues of our turbulent times, these posters endeavor to show the social, political, and aesthetic concerns of many cultures in a single exhibition through delineating themes and contrasting political realities. I can see Eric drooling over this one.
