“The Contemporary Photograph”

A National Juried Exhibition

May 2 thru June 6, 2009

Juror, D. Michael Coffee, has over 30 years of combined experience in architecture, ceramics, painting, photography, and fine art printmaking, and currently works as a professional artist and arts educator.

From the nearly 300 submissions that were received, Coffee selected 75 submissions from 33 artists and photographers residing in: Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Illinois, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas and British Columbia for inclusion in “The Contemporary Photograph.”

“It is my hope that this exhibition will open the door to new concepts of how a photograph is created and that it will expand commonly held perceptions of what photography can be,” Coffee concludes.

As Co-Founder and Creative Director of SHY RABBIT Contemporary Arts, Coffee has been responsible for organizing, curating and installing over 20 fine art exhibitions over the course of the last five years.

Coffee is credited with transforming SHY RABBIT into the region’s most important and innovative contemporary arts space through the high level and broad range of the contemporary work and educational programs presented.
