Gallery News: "First Look" Submissions are Open

Every photograph tells a story. When part of a body of work, the photograph takes on new meaning, becoming part of a bigger and more complete narrative. A portfolio allows the photographer to explore the complexities of their subject, and provide context that gives it richness and meaning that is more than the sum of its parts. Panopticon Gallery is pleased to announce “First Look,” our first annual Juried Portfolio Showcase. Five portfolios will be selected for exhibition from January 4 to February 27, 2018.
