We welcome your entries for our 10th Annual International Open Call exhibition. This exhibition is mounted as an international showcase for contemporary voices in photography, no theme or prompt. We are looking to bring together image makers from around the world to survey current photographic practice across a full spectrum of image capture, presentation and subject matter. We are looking to assemble for a gallery exhibition, a collection of work that reflects the range of current photographic practice across the world in 2024. Beyond the requirement that light was captured in the making of your work, the only limit is your imagination.
This is an opportunity to submit your work for review by Karen Haas, Lane Senior Curator of Photographs at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston
