We are pleased to announce that Slideluck Potshow will be collaborating with this year's LOOK3 Festival in Charlottesville, VA. For those of you who are unfamiliar with LOOK3-- it is definitely one of the best things going in the photography world these days.

The LOOK3 Festival of the Photograph is a 3-day celebration of photography that takes place from June 11th-13th in Charlottesville, Virginia. The weekend will be filled with gallery exhibits, outdoor projections, Masters Talks presentations, workshops, and special events-- including SLPS. Much like Slideluck, LOOK grew out of the last 20 years of backyard slideshow parties of wildlife photographer and National Geographic editor-at-large, Nick Nichols. Perhaps what is more significant, in terms of our mutual synergy, is the unique sense of community, intimacy and appreciation that comes out of a photography gathering that is driven more by human connectivity than anything else.

The three featured artists, this year will be Sylvia Plachy, Martin Parr, and Gilles Peress. There will also be a number of other great workshops (James Nachtwey, David Alan Harvey, Brian Storm) exhibits (Pictures of the Year International, World Press Photo) and Masters Talks (Callie Shell, George Steinmetz, Phillip Toledano.) Charlottesville is a bucolic and historic little college town located about 2 hours west of DC. There are direct buses from both NYC and DC and more information can be found on the LOOK3 website.

Submit your work to SLPS Charlottesville! This slideshow will feature emerging and established photographers and artists. Photojournalists, painters, fashion and fine-art photographers all present work alongside one another in a relaxed and spirited atmosphere. We are currently seeking cohesive, creative, and thought-provoking submissions.

Past contributors to Slideluck Potshow include: The Guggenheim Foundation, Elliott Erwitt, Todd Hido, Elinor Carucci, Martin Schoeller, Alec Soth, Chris Buck, Spencer Tunick, Martin Parr, Nina Berman, Vincent Laforet and many others.

The deadline for submissions is Monday, June 1st and the submission guidelines can be found here.
