There is something about black and white photography that captures the imagination. It creates a mood that can seem deeper and more evocative than what can be achieved with colour. When you combine black and white photography with portraits you have a pairing that can be pure mood, pure magic, and simply pure.

This show is a media specific and genre specific exhibition to showcase portraiture in black and white photography. Film and digital photography are eligible. Your artist’s statement should contain as much detail as possible. Information that should be included is the type of camera used, if digital - any digital adjustments to colour, contrast and sharpness, type of film – if any, any alterations made to the image and some information on the subject and/or how the picture came about. Please try and keep any editing or enhancements of your image to a minimum. This artist’s statement is required, so please don’t leave it out! All points of the prospectus should be met. If you have any questions regarding the prospectus and its requirements, please send them to edu@ebsqart.com.
