XPOSÉ 2019
***EXTENDED DEADLINE: Friday, FEBRUARY 15th, 2019***
A Scotiabank CONTACT Photography Festival Open Exhibition
The Canadian Association of Professional Image Creators (CAPIC) is delighted to announce the call for entries for the annual Xposé exhibition! Xposé is a curated photography exhibition open to all professional photographers. This year, for the first time ever, CAPIC Xposé will also include a juried component open to all photographers selected to be in the exhibition with prizes to be won from our incredible sponsors!
The curatorial committee, led by Head Curator Bob Carnie, will review all submissions to Xposé 2019 and select which works will be included in the exhibition. Photographers whose works are selected to be included in the exhibition will then be invited to submit a series of JPEGs of photographs (5 to 10), related to their selected work(s). This “Series” will then be judged online by a panel of fine art photography professionals. The two winners of the juried portion will be announced during the opening night exhibition of Xposé 2019!
Xposé 2019 will be mounted as part of the larger CAPIC Exhibition 2019, which includes two other exciting annual art shows put on to showcase the work of the CAPIC community, both emerging and established.
CAPIC welcomes back Bob Carnie as the head curator for Xposé 2019. Bob is the owner of Connections Gallery in Toronto. With over 40 years in the industry, Bob maintains an international reputation for printing traditional and digital fine art for photographers, galleries, and museums. His passion for working with images and his dedication to supporting the photographer’s vision through his printing lend strongly to his curatorial practice.

About the Judges
Anthea Baxter-Page
Exhibiting Artist and Director + Curator of Alison Milne Gallery
BIO:
Anthea Baxter-Page (1976) has been surrounded by artists since her earliest memories. With a BA in Cultural Studies at McGill University, she spent six years assisting on video projects and photographing portraits in Montreal, as well as travelling abroad regularly, camera in hand. Upon her return to Toronto, Anthea assumed a three-year assistantship with Canadian photographer George Whiteside and began her career as an exhibiting artist in 2006. Her passion for photography is equal only to her love for travel, and the two have irrevocably fused. Anthea’s introduction into the local art market was in 2008 with the launch of Oliver Gordon Gallery, an exhibition space in Toronto for fine art stock imagery from an international roster of talent. In 2010, she joined forces with Interior Designer Alison Milne to grow her contemporary art gallery, Alison Milne Gallery, of which Anthea is the Director and Curator. Collectors of Anthea’s work include editors, authors, agents, art directors, media executives and other creative people with good taste.
