Reveal

The figure in fine art photography

Darkroom Gallery   /   Deadline: 07/15/15

The nude-even in generalized or idealized renderings-has triggered impassioned discussions about sin, sexuality, cultural identity, and canons of beauty, especially when the chosen medium is photography, with its inherent accuracy and specificity. The allure of the human body has always been a gift to photography, from shirtless boxers showing off their guns in the 1850s to the trickery of Man Ray and the provocative images of Robert Mapplethorpe.

Darkroom Gallery is calling for figural nudes that push the confines of the photographic medium. Images that are expressive, evocative and revealing. A timeless subject matter redefined and propelled into contemporary resonance.
