Exposure 2008

Invitation to Enter:
CAPIC Exhibition at Exposure 2008
‘Be your own Art Director’


Exposure 2008
Attention all CAPIC Prairie Chapter members! CAPIC’s been invited to create an exhibition showcasing our members’ work at Exposure 2008, The Calgary-Banff Photo Festival. The exhibition will be at Exposure 2008’s central location, The Gerry Thomas Gallery, from opening night to the close of the festival (January 27 – February 29, 2008). Check out http://www.exposurecalgarybanff.com/ for details of the last year's event. 2008 will be bigger and better and CAPIC’s going to be a part of it from start to end.


'Be your own Art Director'
This is a fantastic opportunity to showcase your talents and connect with a huge audience of art directors, art buyers and future clients. All you have to do is unleash the artist within, be your own art director (with emphasis on art) and produce pieces that are the most artistic possible interpretation of what you do in your daily work. All subjects and genres are welcome – architecture, still life, fashion, portraiture, and more. Just be sure to push yourself far beyond the norm. As for media – the sky’s the limit. The fewer regular prints in standard frames the better: ink, canvas, paint, wood, metal, three-dimensional, backlit and more are all welcome. Big is beautiful. Small is okay too.

Entry is free and open exclusively to members of the CAPIC Prairie Chapter only. You also have the option to offer your artwork for sale.



‘Be your own Art Director’ is a tremendous opportunity to showcase members’ work and bring CAPIC’s message to a wider audience. So that we can make the best show possible and ensure the selected images can be ready in time, the timeline will be:

November 16 – Deadline to sign up for exhibition. As a minimum, we need to know if you’re on board; welcome! If you know how many pieces and how they’ll be created then so much the better. Sign up or ask questions by email to prairie@capic.org.

December 7 - Deadline for digital proofs. Submission will be juried by the gallery prior to acceptance, so we’ll need a digital file showing image(s) you plan to submit along with a description of the intended final treatment. Send digital files and accompanying description to prairie@capic.org

December 14 – Notice of Acceptance – everyone who submitted proofs will be notified of the jury results. If you’re in, then it’s time to start making your art.

January 18 – Deadline for delivery of finished art to The Gerry Thomas Gallery, 602-11 Avenue SW, Calgary, AB

Week of January 18 – Art will be hung.

January 27 – Opening Night show at The Gerry Thomas Gallery, 602-11 Ave SW, Calgary

February 1 to 29 – Exposure 2008
