OPENING RECEPTION

ANIMALS is an all-encompassing, interactive exhibition that looks at the animals around us and how human interaction plays a role in endangerment and survival. From domestic household pets to wild invasive or endangered species, animals are presented through various methods, including painting, sculpture, mixed media, and video. This extensively curated collection seeks to unravel the mysteries behind these connections and convey the importance of the role of animals in our environment.

The spectrum of this exhibit also includes how animals have historically been depicted as symbols of prestige and religious icons. They often represent spiritual connection, imprinting into our lives through unspoken communication and connection.

Meaghan Kent, Curator of Exhibitions, and Charles Jackson Adkins Jr., Assistant Curator, curated the exhibition.

Juror Statement

Whenever I am asked to judge fine art photography, be that in a juried exhibition, a portfolio review, or a submission to the gallery, one question is always going through my mind: is this an interesting photograph, or is it just a photograph of an interesting subject? Selecting the top images for Atlanta Photography Group’s Selects 2021 exhibition was no different.

My preference is always to judge prints in person, as I believe the finished product, the actual physical photograph, is what’s most important, but the image itself must first be captivating. The subject doesn’t have to be exciting or interesting or captivating on its own: the photographer must use his or her own voice to make it so. The mundane can be beautiful as in Central Library Skylight. The light can change something simple into something stunning as we see in Truth Lives in the Shadows. The abstract can be fascinating as with Burlesque Artist, Clift Hanger. The photographs can be shot on the street like Guard Dog or elaborately staged as we see with The Glamper/ Birding, none of it matters, so long as it’s an interesting photograph, not just a photograph of an interesting subject. I didn’t worry too much about having wide range of subjects or an even mix of black and white and color.

"YOU ARE HERE"

"YOU ARE HERE"

Atlanta Photography Group
This exhibition is themed around a sense of searching, and the images should reflect the idea of “place” throughout the rural American South. The exhibition will be on-site in Zebulon, GA, in a historical building that formally housed the town’s first newspaper. This is a four-day the event that hosts photographic art collectors, artists, and visitors worldwide.

SlowExposures 2020/2021

Thursday, September 16th – Sunday, September 19th, 2021

"For such a simple phrase, You Are Here, contains an outsized tension: between the implication that one is lost and the certitude of being located in a specific place. This exhibition explores that opposition in the context of the rural American South and reveals a region that is equally enigmatic: constant, changing, violent, restorative, exotic, and known. Taken together, these photographs offer a view of the rural South that is rich and complicated, with recognizable textures and tools, familiar guides, and evidence of things not seen. At their most successful, the artists included here rely on unique aspects of photographic vision, embracing and challenging photography’s assumed role as a faithful record of place. Calling to mind questions about the capacity and limits of a photograph to effectively tell us about the world we inhabit, then, the works on display are as much about photography itself as they are about the varied landscapes, people, and histories of the American South.
