What are the in-person Portfolio Reviews?
The In-Person Portfolio Reviews are the heart of the Photolucida 2007 festival.
Gallery owners, curators, critics, collectors and publishers representing
small, mid-sized, and major venues from all over the US and abroad, gather in
Portland to review work.
Photographers at all levels of experience register for
one-on-one meetings with the reviewers of their choice. Each review session
lasts for 20 minutes and we limit the number of participants to assure that
everyone receives 4 or 5 reviews per day. It's a great way to network. Numerous
photographers have walked away with opportunities to exhibit, publish and sell
their work after attending the Portfolio Reviews.
Participants of the Portfolio Reviews are eligible to stay at the Benson Hotel
at a special Photolucida rate. If you choose to stay at the hotel during the
Portfolio Reviews, please inform the Benson that you are a Photolucida
participant when registering for rooms at the hotel.
Photographer's Master Index
Instead of producing a cd-rom of participants work as we have for previous
review events, this year we are creating a printed Photographer's Master Index.
This reference tool will be distributed to all of the reviewers to keep for all
posterity. The index will include contact information for each participant,
along with a full color thumbnail image representative of each participants
work.
The Portfolio Walk
Registered photographers can also participate in the Portfolio Walk. The
portfolio walk, hosted for one evening during the festival, is an exhibition of
the portfolios of all the photographers participating in the Portfolio Reviews.
It gives the photographers, the reviewers, and the general community a chance
to see all the great work that has collected for the Portfolio Reviews. In
previous years this has been a very successful event, drawing in large numbers
of viewers.
