OPF Owner/Editor-in-Chief
I'd like to commend to you the new feature of OPF, Photographer of the Week.
This far their are two. They'll be found in url=http://www.openphotographyforums.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=85]"Breaking News"[/url]. The photographers chosen are generally part of some ongoing exhibition in a major gallery. I'll try my best to distribute the locations of the galleries all over the world according to where we have OPF members. So expect to find a featured photographer in a city near you. At least, we should be able to sample some of the most outstanding photographic work. This week it's the poetic photography of Pentti Samalldahti shown in Los Angeles and last week it was Bill Armstrong from an exhibition in New York. Coming Next will be a favorite museum in Munich, Germany showing wonderful work from England.
You're invited, begged and implored to go the the referenced sites and choose and copy the URL to repost in that thread your own newly discovered favorites or one's you've always admired. Add insights you feel and stories you've come across.
Also, please don't hesitate to PM me with your own suggestions for featured photographers when you can find an exhibition or a new book of their work. Just say why they're important to be shown!
So what do you think of this addition to OPF? It's a lot of work and it requires your involvement to make it alive! So your support is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
