Call for entries! 2, 3, 4: Dimensional Photographies calls for photographic work that considers the object-ness of the photographic image. Contemporary photography is embracing modes of production that move the print off the wall and into 3-D and 4-D realms, exemplified in part by a return to historical processes. Photography like this distinguishes itself from retinal, transmittable media by calling attention to its own materiality, its presence, its singularity, and its unique identity as both image and object. A photograph may exist in relation to other objects, to its own display apparatus, to the space in which it lives; it may or may not have a stable position in time. This exhibition looks to the contemporary practices of artists as photographers who are engaged with object-based production to engage in the ideas of reproduction implicit in the medium. We welcome submissions that offer a wide interpretation of photographic practice.

2, 3, 4: Dimensional Photographies will be a presentation of Alternatives, a biennial juried exhibition organized by Ohio University’s MFA Photography and Integrated Media program in the School of Art. Since its beginning in 1980, Alternatives has achieved national recognition for its leadership in forging new definitions in the medium by emphasizing the work of photographers in the conceptual forefront of the practice.

In conjunction with the exhibition, a series of events will be presented as part of the opening festivities including a lecture by Brittany Nelson.
