8th Annual Joseph Miller Abstract Photography Exhibit

Posted byMatthew G. SchmidtPosted inBlog, Gallery, Joe Miller

5 May – 28 May 2018

This year we had a wonderful surprise with Freeman Patterson attending the 8th Annual Joseph Miller Abstract Photography Exhibit.  Freeman’s largest exhibit of original photographs in the US remain in the gallery every year as the Abstract Photography Exhibit is hung.  This year he made himself available on the first weekend of the exhibit, attending the Artist’s Reception and mingling with the attendees.

Competition to get images into the exhibit was fierce again this year, with 92 photographers submitting 396 images.  The gallery’s 125 image locations mean that many fine images do not get accepted or displayed.
