2010 PhotoLucida Critical Mass-Judging
I just finished judging the last phase of 2010 Photolucida Critical Mass. From 181 Finalists, I voted for my favorite 50. There a lot of diverse work in this last batch.Hoping that the last 50 selected ones truly reflect the whole range, techniques and themes of the current times we are living and what photography is today. Best of luck to all and soon enough we will know who are the winners.

The photograph above is from Carl Bower one of my very favorite series''Chasing Cinderella'' and 2009 Photolucida Critical Mass winner. A year later and the series are still very clear in my mind. That is when you know... that you made the right decision.

To All the Sour Grapes out there...
Dear Sour Grapes:
Just because I am not posting, talking or voting for your work in Photolucida does not mean that you can manipulate or dictate what I post on my blog, Facebook and Twitter. Better worry about putting your best work out there instead of questioning my good intentions. At the end no matter what... you will lose anyway...
Thanks to your ignorance and insecurity others, will not have the benefit of showing the work out there, selling prints , getting gallery attention etc, etc. All this happened when artists were featured here in this blog.
Amen and don't try to cross my path ever again...

PhotoLucida's Critical Mass 2010 Pre Screening Picks-Claire Beckett
I saw Claire Beckett's photo (see below) during Humble Arts Foundation 31 Women and was so touch by it and it was one of my favorites of the show.
With the series "Simulating Iraq" Claire looked at American military training for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. These photographs were made on military bases within the U.S., in fabricated spaces designed to mimic Iraq and Afghanistan. The simulations include the use of specific architecture, objects and costumes, and Americans (both soldiers and civilians) who role-play as Iraqis and Afghans.
Claire Beckett-
This one is more than a YES for me

PhotoLucida's Critical Mass 2010 Pre Screening Picks
Well it is that time of the Year to do the Pre- Screening of Photolucida's Critical Mass. I just started and my job is to vote YES or No and trim it from 549 applicants to the 175 finalists of the second tier.
I will try to post as many of my picks here so you can start getting an idea of the range, theme and quality that I am after.
Christopher Raushenberg-
My very first pick is the work of Christopher Raushenberg. This photo series is based on The Marché aux Puces at Saint-Ouen, an inch or two outside the city limits of Paris, is said to be the greatest flea market in the world. I really liked the series and the compositions of the subjects in it make them so surreal. The photographs also reminded me the collages and photography of his late father, the great Robert Raushenberg.This is a YES for me.
I will try to post as many of my picks here so you can start getting an idea of the range, theme and quality that I am after.

Critical Mass Photolucida 2010
Backstage, Miss Light, Mesitas del Colegio- Carl Bower- one of my favorites from Critical Mass 2009
I will be juror during the Pre-Screening and final juror of the final 50 Critical Mass winners. I encourage you to participate. There has been a lot of great success stories from a lot of previous entries.
Photolucida announces the opening of registration for Critical Mass 2010! http://www.photolucida.org/current.php
Registration will be open through July 25th and is open to photographers working in any medium. Work will be juried by more than 200 international top curators, gallerists, publishers, editors, etc. From Critical Mass, a number of Awards will be made, including a monograph, solo show, and other exciting honors. See Photolucida website for more details
Critical Mass 2010 is now open for registration!
Deadline to enter work is July 25. Please read page in full for information, and click on the link below to register.
What Is Critical Mass?
The aim of Critical Mass, and all Photolucida programming, is to provide participants with career-building opportunities and to promote the best emerging and mid-career artists working today.
Critical Mass is a program about exposure and community. The idea is simple—photographers (from anywhere) submit a 10 image portfolio for $75. This work then gets pre-screened by a committee of approximately 20 great jurors and from there, 175 top Finalists are determined. These top Finalists then pay an additional submission fee ($200) and their work goes on to a jury of approximately 200 of the world’s best curators, editors, and other professionals who have agreed to view and vote on these Finalists. From these votes, at least one photographer is chosen to receive a book award and once the monograph is published, everyone who enters and reviews will receive a copy of the book(s).
We are pleased to continue to give scholarships to pre-selected photographers by geographical region. In previous years, Photolucida gave scholarships to photographers from Poland, Mexico, and Italy. This year, the lucky country is The Netherlands!
What to expect?
As an entrant to Critical Mass, you shouldn’t necessarily expect feedback from the jurors unless they want to contact you about doing something with your work. Jurors are given the opportunity and encouraged to provide written feedback, but we can’t guarantee anything other than:
Everyone who enters will receive a copy of the Book Award Winner’s monograph(s).
Everyone who enters will receive a CD containing all of the submitted work.
Everyone who enters will have their work seen, and voted on, by the Pre-Screening committee.
Those who continue on in the top 175 Finalists will have their work seen, and voted on, by over 200 jurors.
Click here for Critical Mass Success Stories.
Book Awards!
Photolucida will publish a monograph for at least one photographer from among the top-scoring finalists. The book award is reserved for artists without a previously published monograph. Photographers with self-published books are still eligible for the book award. If you already have a monograph, you still have over 200 great reasons to participate in Critical Mass!

Also this year, Photolucida is partnering with Newspace Center for Photography to produce a Critical Mass Top 50 Exhibit. Newspace is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting photographic education, with a wonderful exhibition space.

HOT, HOT AND DANGEROUS!
Photos by Ruben Natal-San Miguel
I love being around during Summer in NYC!
I love being around during Summer in NYC!
Although it is hot, the city unveils its sensuality...people dress and act very sexy. However, since the Economy is the way it is now, one must be very careful when visiting parts of the city that people are not familiar with you. Over several years, my main destination had been Upper Manhattan Above 96Th Street.
I started early this summer but, had to stop and refocus into other parts of the city, due to the constant eruption of random violence and crime in the area. Almost nothing that happens, gets shown in the news.
I had always loved people's reaction towards water. I think it brings the inner child in all of us but, it also brings out the sensuality and vulnerability. I like street photography and even though, I collect the rather at times still studio photography. Studio photography is beautiful but, it can never capture the realness and the motion and the beauty of the moment. It can also look at times be a bit too intellectual mind fucked and not interesting. That goes without the ego of the photographer involved in it, which trust me, these days is a little bit overblown.
Being part of Photolucida's Critical Mass 2009 Jury Pre-Screening team, helped me re-valuate the photography work that, I had recently had been collecting and its photography sources. Trust me folks, there is going to be some changes in the way, I collect from now on. And to some photographers, here is a piece of advise ...before dealing with me or any collectors friends, dealers or institutions...check your EGO at the door!
Nothing is better that true talent with humble, gracious and appreciative manners.
