Dear Overspray,


I saw your blog and thought you would be interested in presenting this great opportunity for artists to your readers.


EXPOSURE is a nation-wide search for photography. Artists Wanted (http://www.artistswanted.org) is looking for photographers of all backgrounds who speak exquisitely in the language of lenses and aperture.

The Top Photographer will be selected by New York Times Photo Editor Patrick Witty, Supermodel and Fashion Icon Tiiu Kuik and NYC Gallery Owner David Kesting and will have their work presented in a massive scale photo show on buildings in the top New York City Art Districts: Chelsea, Dumbo and Williamsburg. Their work will also be featured at an Opening Event at the Leo Kesting Gallery in Manhattan on August 9th and they will receive: $2,008 cash, a full-press promotional campaign and a feature in our upcoming publication, "The Annual".

Below I have included the details of our call. Please find our press release and an image attached. Please feel free to contact exposure@artistswanted.org with any questions and thank you in advance for your support.
