When the Albuquerque Photographers’ Gallery sent out the call for entries for their first juried show, “In the Mind’s Eye”, they asked for photographers to answer the question: “What is your vision of the world?” The instructions elaborated, saying that “it could be surreal or authentic, fantasy or truth—or it may include elements of both”.The response was fantastic with over 100 photos entered from artists who have created a collection of highly imaginative images, and in some cases, surreal enough to be a backdrop for the most stylized of science fiction films.
Images were evaluated independently by three award-winning professional photographers and scored based on three criteria: Creativity, Technique, and Impact. The judges were Leroy Perea, founder of ANMPAS (Annual New Mexico Photographic Art Show), Urey Lemen, a founding member of APG, and Kent Winchester, also a member of APG.
The top 30 scoring images will be on display at the Albuquerque Photographers’ Gallery in Plaza Don Luis, Old Town Albuquerque, from February 3rd through the 29th. The opening reception will be on February 3rd, 5:00 to 8:00 PM.

We hope to see you there!
