::: PROFESSIONAL AND AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHERS OF ALL NATIONS::

::: DEADLINE: 30th MARCH 2012 :::
Fixing the volatile:
The ancient alchemists of the past spent their lives trying to find a way to fix the volatile; a way to capture the light of the spirit and materialize it. Thus, respecting the freedom of religion, thought and expression, we call the new artisans of the light to participate in a very similar work.
The Salón Arcano invites amateur and professional photographers to submit works inspired by dreams, allegories, myths, mysticism, the intangibles, spirituality, alchemy, astrology, qabalah, magic or the mystery traditions for our next exhibition that will take place in May 2012 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. An exhibition of photography and visual arts named: “The Square: an Hermetic Revelation”.
In the exhibition, the photographs will be displayed next to a text (submitted by each photographer), thus creating a mirror in which the photo explains the text and the text becomes the mirror-image of the photo.
::: RULES AND SUBMISSION GUIDELINES :::
1. We will receive works and photographs by individuals of every nationality, regardless of their country of residence.
2. The Salón Arcano will make a selection of the works.
3. Entries must be sent in digital format and high resolution to [email protected]

5. Every photo must be accompanied by a text inspired by the image. This text can be a poem, an idea, a brief essay or any kind of text that in a way or other is able to mirror the image. The author of the text can be the photographer who submits the photo or a second person working with the photographer. Texts found in books won’t be accepted.
The maximum length of the text is 120 words. During the selection the texts will be as important as the photos themselves and considered as a single work of image and text. The texts must be written in ENGLISH OR SPANISH, the texts submitted in English will be translated to Spanish for the exhibition.
6. The Salón Arcano won’t be accepting photographs that don’t include a text.
