Our photography exchange, Fixed Focus, is now completed. The portfolios have been sent out and all the contributed photos can be seen in their online gallery.

Fixed Focus

The annual collaborative printmaking project (the Littlest Print Exchange) is in its fourth year now. A few months ago, it was decided that the project should branch out to include photographic prints more prominently. To that end, an LPE side project called Fixed Focus, an open exchange of photography, was proposed. It is a pretty simple project. Each participating artist sends in an edition of 16 identical photos and, in return, receives a random portfolio consisting of photos by the other participants.

So if you want to participate, just make sixteen 4"x5" horizontal photos and send them to Chris by January 30th. Make sure to include your name and address, along with a website address so you can receive proper credit. The prints will be sorted out and sent back out to you in a nice package by the end of February. All of the sorted details are available at the official Fixed Focus Website. While you're there, take a moment to check out the galleries of Littlest Print Exchange portfolios.

Starting next week, the Littlest Print Exchange 2011 will be hanging on the walls of the world famous Moosewood Restaurant in Ithaca, New York. Stop in some time between January 7th and February 29th for a great meal and take a look at our tiny prints. Thanks again to Rebecca Godin for putting this show together.

LPE participant, Rebecca Godin was nice enough to piggyback a showing of the 2010 portfolio onto an exhibition she curated, Elemental: Fire, Water, Air & Earth, at the Community School of Music and Arts. If you happen to be in the Ithaca area you should stop in and check out both shows.

All the 2011 editions have arrived. We spent a couple of days collating them into boxes. Everything should be shipped out early next week. Keep an eye out for an update to the 2011 gallery in a couple of weeks and a call for submissions for the next exchange soon after that.

A few photos of the New Cliche Portfolio have turned up on the facebook page of Gallery 1010, a Knoxville, Tennessee art gallery that hosted an exhibition of the exchange thanks to the efforts of contributor, Leslie Grossman. It looks like it was a nice showing. We especially like the addition of the magnifying glass.

LPE In Germany

Johannes Mundinger has some (long delayed) photos on his blog of the unpacking of his Littlest Print Portfolio from 2010 Even though I'm a bit biased, I think it looks pretty cool. Even though I don't read German, it seems like he was happy with it too.

Today the fiftieth member of the 2011 exchange secured his spot. The complete list of participants can be seen on the 2011 Portfolio page.
