CENTER Project Grant WinnersNovember 4th – November 26th, 2016
photo-eye Gallery is proud to exhibit select works by the 2016 CENTER Project Grant winners.
Megan E. Doherty’s black-and-white series Back of the Yards, recipient of the Project Development Grant, documents the last remaining member of a tiny street ministry tending to those involved in, and victimized by, gang violence on the South and West Sides of Chicago.
Elena Anosova’s Section, a series of color portraits focusing on the emotional toll experienced by female inmates in Russian prisons, was awarded the Project Launch Grant. These grant winners were selected by an independent international jury comprised of photographic professionals, and the exhibition opens during the week of CENTER’s Review Santa Fe Photo Festival which runs November 3rd – November 6th.

Wendel White: Schools for the Colored
In collaboration with CENTER, photo-eye is pleased to announce Wendel White's Schools for the Colored — now on view in our Bookstore Project Space through November 26th, 2016. In this series of black-and-white images, Wendel White photographs the remains, transformation, or imagined footprint of structures once used as segregated schools along the northern border of the Mason-Dixon Line.
“The architecture and geography of America’s educational apartheid, in the form of a system of “colored schools,” within the landscape of southern New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois is the central concern of this project. — Wendel White
White has been invited to participate in 2016's Review Santa Fe, and photo-eye is proud to have his powerful project on display during the festival.

Rachel Phillips: Fixed
photo-eye Gallery is thrilled to publish Fixed, a new series by artist Rachel Phillips to the Photographer's Showcase. Fixed follows this summer’s Divinations series, and continues to explore notions of antique ephemera, vernacular photography, and photography's role in the Everyday. Injecting the work with a sense of play, Fixed is created by Phillip's fictional alter-ego Madge Cameron (b. 1935) and the Founding Archivist at the Pacific Library Privé and Special Collections. Each work is the product of a colorful 'interruption' during the process of digitizing the library's vast photographic holdings. Fixed celebrates both the history of early photography and the shared humanity a simple portrait can convey.
