This juried exhibit explores the artistic and creative view of the body and its form, celebrating the
nude in photography by embracing a variety of styles. We welcome the timeless elegance of a classical
study and alternative and provocative styles. Studies of the whole or partial human form, nude or
semi-nude are eligible. Chelsea and Michael Granger, Directors of LightBox, serve as jurors.

“From Edward Weston to Joel-Peter Witkin, the nude as a subject has been approached by
photographers throughout history. From the classic simplicity of Weston to the complex, evocative
style of Witkin, capturing the human form remains a timeless yet challenging pursuit among
photographers.” ~ Michael and Chelsea Granger
