Third Annual Online Visual Artist Registry Juried Art Show

I will have one piece "Dunce" in the 3rd annual Online Visual Artist Registry Juried Art Show at the Columbus Main Library's Carnegie Gallery. I've copied the press release below.

"The Third Annual Online Visual Artist Registry Juried Art Show will feature original works of art by Ohio artists. Work will be selected through a blind jury process of distinguished art professionals, including professional juror, Ron Kroutel, an Athens area artist who won the juror’s choice award during the 2007 OOVAR exhibition.

The artwork will be displayed at The Columbus Metropolitan Main Library in the Carnegie Gallery from October 13-November 29, 2008. An award of $1000 will be given for Juror’s Choice. An award of $500 will be presented for People’s Choice. People’s Choice Award ballots will be accepted through November 8. The cash awards are provided by Friends of the Library."

book of alternative photographic processes

Another late notice. Last February (2008), Christopher James published the second edition of his landmark, much loved Book of Alternative Photographic Processes.


Go to amazon's site to see a description of the book. It wouldn't be far off the mark to call this the bible for alternative process photography. In expanded this edition over the first one, he included my photo of Dr. Frangst in his photogram labcoat in between a discussion of John Herschel and Anna Atkins on page 151.

MACA

Better late than never.

I was part of a one night event at Spanish tapas style restaurant in Powell, Ohio, MACA.


The gallery space is an old Mercantile exchange. The restaurant is in the back. Delicious food, wine abounding with my two favorite grapes Garnache and Tempranillo.

there were five of us, Sarah Fairchild, Kathryn Nova Williams, Andrew Ball, Amanda Tirey and me, Frances Schanberger. Really Francis Schanberger but MACA's website has the feminine spelling for my name. That makes three, the Dayton Art Institute, Texas Photographic Society and Maca as making me a Miss.

I hung the Diana camera seascapes H, (was) a seawall, Anchor, Labyrinth, J, Starling, Cage, Touch (sand drawing) and two others.

not pretty but functional...the new website

it's been literally years since I had an up to date and functioning website. I've been torn between doing something beautiful or doing something functional but ugly. I gave into the latter. It works. Visitors will have an idea of what I've been working on and hopefully old friends and acquaintances can find me.

for at least the next 24 hours the website will be accessed by going to:

http://sites.google.com/site/frangst/

after a day or so and if I didn't make any mistakes the site will be found at my domain name:

www.frangst.com
