All artists are welcome to participate but the focus of the event is to allow an open forum where up and coming artist can display their works. It is the hope of Joshua Stone Productions, through these shows, to develop and cultivate some dialog about these sports that until late were frowned upon as rebellious tools of youth. Extreme sports, against overt speculation and down trodden oppression, has transformed itself into a now world recognized sport platform and is no longer viewed as a subculture or counter culture within the sports community. The Spring Extreme Art Show aims to celebrate this coming of age by encouraging artist to convert this physical art form into a metaphysical experience using fine art as the vehicle.

No DINNER is out of bounds.IF YOU DON'T HAVE PHOTOGRAPHS OF DINNER, YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO SHOOT FOR IT.

| | DEADLINE APRIL 25, 2011 - $1200 in Awards Early Morning, After Dark: From Dawn's First to Dusk's Last Night Contests, Juried Art Shows - Oil, Art Gallery About the Call for EntriesAccording to Juror Peter Howe:"Early Morning, After Dark: Dawn's First Light to Dusk's Last is a broad topic for a photographer to undertake. This has both advantages and disadvantages. On the plus side it allows for an almost inexhaustible range of subject matter. The downside is that it makes it difficult for the photographer to focus his or her creativity into one area that adequately represents the theme. There are, however, some guidelines that I think may help. As I'm sure you might know the word photography comes from the Greek for "writing with light", and light has to be a strong component of any submission. Another point to remember is that the Call for Entry includes the phrase, "After Dark", and that light doesn't disappear at dusk but it does take on different characteristics. You should consider, one, or both of these times of light for this Call for Entry and what will prove to be a most interesting exhibition.""On the occasions that I've taught students I've tried to instill in them two ideas that may be useful in your selecting images. The first and foremost is that photography is not an intellectual medium but an emotional one. It can't tell you why something happened, but it can show you what it felt like when it happened better than any other medium. Unless the photographer can harness the viewer's emotions there's really little point in taking the photograph. I also firmly believe that photographing what you know and understand generally produces more profoundly moving images than trying to capture something you've never experienced before and know little about.
