CALL FOR ENTRIES – This is the 13th Annual Juried Photography Exhibition

Juror: Angie McMonigal

About the Exhibition:

Morpho Gallery announces its 13th annual juried photo exhibit. Photographers are invited to submit images for possible inclusion in the juried exhibition. Images are not to exceed  36” in any direction, framing included.  The gallery is accepting original photography only, any and all subject matters and photo processes are welcomed.

About the Juror:

Award-winning fine art photographer, Angie McMonigal, moved to Chicago more than 15 years ago and has been exploring the city with her camera ever since. Raised in a small town in Wisconsin, she approaches the urban fabric with the spirit of a photographer who grew up surrounded by nature, finding moments of meditative calm in terrain that is always transforming. She focuses her lens more frequently on bold architectural details rather than sweeping cityscapes. Her images celebrate those unexpectedly iconic elements that are hiding in plain sight. From landmark buildings she distills the essential lines and textures that frame the city. McMonigal sees these buildings as actively shaping, and shaped by, human activity; they are never mere backdrops. Steel and brick towers are presented as quilts rich with history. These are solid structures that soar with soul, and concrete edifices that echo with the lofty ambition of planners and dreamers.

Angie’s work has been exhibited and published internationally. Her photos have been showcased by galleries in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Barcelona and other destinations. Her Urban Quilt series is now part of the Catherine Edelman Gallery’s Chicago Project. Publication credits include National Geographic, Departures, and SHOTS Magazine.

Angie has received awards from the International Photography Awards (IPA) and Prix de la Photographie Paris (Px3), among others.

McMonigal frequently works with designers, art consultants, architectural firms, and private collectors to provide compelling photographs for their collections. She has also collaborated with national and global brands, including Starwood Hotels & Resorts, Icebreaker, and Stir creating distinctive images to complement their brands. She is available for commissioned, one-of-a-kind projects for both individual and corporate collectors. Creating images that draw out the organic interplay between design, structure, environment, and society, Angie offers a fresh viewpoint that fulfills clients’ commercial and creative needs.
