Call for Submissions for PROOF

PROOF is an annual exhibition of photo-based work by
Canadian Emerging Artists.

Gallery 44 Centre for Contemporary Photography is a non-profit artist-run centre committed to the advancement of photographic art. We encourage the submission of exhibition proposals from artists in the early stages of their careers for our annual group exhibition entitled PROOF. Consistent with our overall exhibition objectives, this exhibition highlights the work of artists who are innovative in their use of materials and approach to subject matter. PROOF is not intended to represent a particular theme but rather to reflect a range of current concerns and practices in contemporary Canadian photography.
