Barriers to Entry - new photographs
Opens June 6th 2008 at Moab Art WorksThe series of gate photographs "Barriers to Entry" is my first extended project since "Recent Developments" which premiered in June 2006. Once again my interest lies in the significant presence of humans in the landscape. This time I am more focused on division - here from there, us from them, privileged to enter or not. The more I have explored the Moab area looking for gates, the more I have discovered things about gates. They have a front and a back. They can be locked or not - or have a lock but not be locked. They are entrances, exits and barriers. They are used and not used. They are openings in the barriers that divide our common inheritance - land. - BP 05/13/08
The Perfect Artist's Portfolio Review
This article is excerpted from a talk Brian Parkin gave at the Moab Photography Symposium in May 2008 called "Show Time"
- Visit the gallery's website and familiarize yourself with the physical location of the gallery and the type of work it carries.
- Call ahead to set up an appointment and confirm the day before.
- Bring eight to twelve finished images ready-to-hang or frame-ready.
- Works should form a complete series which has a title.
- Title, number, and sign each work.
- The work should be fresh, recently made, and in the case of prints and photographs, the whole edition should have been printed by the artist.
- Artworks should be intriguing, have a feeling of being lit from within, and be market priced.
- Offer derivative works (prints, note cards, posters, books etc.) at very reasonable prices.
- Leave behind a resume and promotional materials with a space for the gallery stamp.
- Want the gallery to be your sole regional representative.
