IPA Quarterly Exhibit Extended Through December 14th

Due to the popularity of the IPA Quarterly exhibit, the gallery extended the stay of the installation until December 14th. If you are in or near the Los Angeles area, you still have time to visit the Santa Monica Art Studios.

It was quite a thrill for me to see my photo, "The Recital" exhibited along with the works of many of my friends.

The IPA Quarterly Contemporary Photography Exhibition Opens October 12

I'm thrilled to have one of my photographic pieces in the IPA Quarterly Exhibit which opened yesterday, October 3rd. If you are in the Southern California area, please make plans to attend the FREE Opening Reception on October 12th from 6-9 p.m. Below is the official Press Release.






The IPA Quarterly Contemporary Photography Exhibition Opens October 12 
Gallery show: Santa Monica Art Studios, Oct. 3 - November 9, Wednesday-Sunday 12-6pm
Opening Reception (free event, no RSVP required): Saturday, October 12, 6-9pm
Jurist Mark Pellington: “It’s a new way of seeing, redefining personal art within a new context of technology.”

(Los Angeles - October 1, 2013)--iPhoneArt.com (IPA) is proud to announce the opening of the inaugural IPA Quarterly Gallery Exhibition.

This group show features a diverse range of photographic based works from collage to street, landscape to portrait. Selected images will be showcased on the Mobile Arts Festival website (http://la-maf.com/ipa-quarterly-shortlist/) at IPA’s hometown gallery, the Santa Monica Art Studios (SMAS) Hangar Gallery South, from October 3 - November 9.  The opening reception is Saturday, October 12, 6-9pm

Launched in partnership with ProCamera, all entries were submitted using the exhibition feature in latest version of the ProCamera mobile app.  IPA’s international call garnered several thousand entries from over a dozen countries, brilliantly captured with smart phone devices and edited using mobile apps. 

Independent jurist for the IPA Quarterly was Hollywood filmmaker Mark Pellington. 

“This mobile art explosion, the merger of art and technology, is a new way of seeing,” Pellington says.  "It speaks both to our disassociation with identity, and our desire for human connection."
Selected works from the juried exhibition will be on display October 3 - November 9 at Hangar Gallery South in the Santa Monica Art Studios, 3026 Airport Ave, Santa Monica, CA. SMAS was the venue for the LA Mobile Arts Festival in 2012.
iPhoneArt.com (IPA) is an artist community and fine art print shop focused on mobile digital art creation and exhibition.  We showcase and exhibit contemporary art and photography through our website, mobile apps, and select brick-and-mortar galleries.  In 2012, iPhoneArt.comproduced the LA Mobile Arts Festival, the largest exhibition of mobile art and mobile photography to date. The IPA Quarterly exhibition marks the third partnership between IPA and ProCamera.

Short Listed for the IPA Quarterly

In August of 2012 I attended the L.A. Mobile Arts Festival. At that time I had probably taken less than 100 images with my iPhone and didn't know the difference between Snapseed and Filterstorm. With just a little more than a year of experience and a passion that has totally consumed me, I entered the IPA Quarterly for a chance to be shortlisted and possibly even exhibited at the event in October.

Today I received the good news that my photo, The Recital was on the shortlist. There were more than 2400 entries and 54 were selected, so this is a really big deal for me. There's nothing more rewarding than striving to do well at something and actually coming close to accomplishing it.
