"Krappy Kamera® Show" Exhibition
Soho Photo Gallery
This event has ended.
It will soon be that time of the year when Soho Photo Gallery is completely dedicated to the art of the "Krappy Kamera". This unique and eagerly awaited exhibition, which the Gallery has fondly termed the Krappy Kamera® Show, will feature images that have been produced using equipment from the low end of the technological scale. The concept underlying this show is that in the hands of an artist, any piece of equipment can be used to create engaging photographs. The Krappy camera includes well-known names such as Diana and Holga as well as obscure junk-store finds and homemade pinhole jobs. It now also includes images made with regular cameras fitted with Lensbaby or Holga-style lenses.
The International Juried Krappy Kamera Competition started in response to the tremendous number of photographers who were interested in the Gallery's Annual Krappy Kamera Show for its own members. With the competition now in its 15th year, 180 photographers from 40 states and 12 foreign countries submitted some 1,200 images for this year's juror, Christy Karpinsky, the founder-editor of F-Stop Magazine.
