2007 Photo Review Photography
Competition.
Toby Jurovics, Curator of Photography,
Smithsonian American Art Museum,
Washington, DC, will be the juror for
the 2007 Photo Review Photography
Competition. The Photo Review, a highly
acclaimed critical journal of photography,
is sponsoring its 23rd annual photography
competition with a difference. Instead of
only installing an exhibit that would be
seen by a limited number of people, The
Photo Review will reproduce accepted
entries in its 2007 competition issue. Thus,
the accepted photographs will be seen by
thousands of people all across the country
and entrants will have a tangible benefit
from the competition. Various prizes, such
as a Microtek ScanMaker i800 scanner
with the ColoRescue system for automatic
one-touch photo restoration and a 8x12”
transparency adapter awarded. Also, the
prize-winning photographers will be chosen
for an exhibition at the photography gallery
of The University of the Arts, Philadelphia,
and will be exhibited on The Photo
Review’s website. An entry fee of $30 for
up to three prints, slides, or images on
CD and $5 each for up to two additional
images entitles all entrants to a copy of the
catalogue. In addition, all entrants will be
able to subscribe to The Photo Review for
$34, a 20% discount. All entries must be
received by mail between May 1 and May
15, 2007. For a prospectus and details,
send a self-addressed, stamped businesssize
(#10) envelope to: The Photo Review,
140 East Richardson Avenue, Suite 301,
Langhorne, PA 19047. The prospectus may
