 International Juried Photography Exhibition

THE STREETS

 Submission Deadline: Sept 13, 11:59PM CT 
Notification: Sept 22, 2026. 4PM CT
Exhibition dates:  Oct 17 - Nov 14, 2026

The street photographer moves through public life as both observer and participant—attentive to gesture, chance, humor, tension, and the fleeting relationships between people and place. An ordinary moment becomes a record of how we live; the familiar becomes strange, revealing the mystery and energy of everyday life.

Praxis Gallery seeks photographic art that explores the streets from all angles, including people, public spaces, urban structures, and documentary subject matter. We welcome all photographic styles and interpretations, in black and white or color, traditional or experimental. Juror: Jonathan Pavlica

Присяжный заседатель:   Элизабет Флинш

Ритм поверхностей, линий и оттенков для меня суть фотографии; композиция должна быть постоянной заботой... органическая координация визуальных элементов. – Анри Картье-Брессон

Термин «композиция» означает «соединение» или акт объединения частей или элементов в единое целое, часто придерживаясь композиционных принципов, которые делают произведение фотографического искусства более привлекательным или интригующим для зрителей. Эти принципы включают в себя развитие ритма, движения, контраста, баланса, единства, близости и непрерывности для создания выразительных и привлекательных композиций, подчеркивая при этом различные визуальные концепции.

Галерея Praxis стремится представить произведения искусства, которые исследуют композицию как фундаментальный аспект фотографической эстетики — будь то чистый визуальный формализм или поддержка тематических целей. Все жанры, типы захвата, черно-белые и цветные, традиционные и нетрадиционные фотографические и цифровые процессы постобработки приветствуются. -9149-20813d6c673b_

Praxis Gallery & Photo Arts Center is a year-round, brick-and-mortar photography gallery in Minneapolis presenting international juried exhibitions and solo shows across four dedicated gallery spaces. We host open calls throughout the year for photographers working in all genres, styles, and processes, including traditional, experimental, and alternative practices. Selected work is exhibited in our physical galleries and professionally documented through published exhibit books, 360° virtual tours, time-lapse gallery videos, and opening-night photography.

Artists from across the United States and abroad are encouraged to submit. Public opening receptions are held on the third Saturday of each month from 6–8 p.m., and all juried exhibitions are archived on our website.
