FRESH FACED AND WILD EYED - RECENT GRADUATES - SUMBIT YOUR WORK TO THE PHOTOGRAPHERS GALLERY

EXHIBITION OPPORTUNITY FOR RECENT GRADUATES
FreshFaced+WildEyed showcases the work of recent graduates from across the UK. Now in its fifth year, this annual event highlights the breadth and diversity of photographic practises emerging from UK institutions, giving graduates a public platform at a critical point in their careers.
Following an online application process, selected finalists have their work exhibited at The Photographers’ Gallery and online, and the opportunity to work with a mentor for twelve months.
The 2012 judges are: Bridget Coaker, Picture Editor, The Guardian and co-founder of Troika Editions Clare Grafik, Head of Exhibitions, The Photographers' Gallery Anthony Luvera, artist, writer and lecturer Karen Newman, Curator, Open Eye Gallery.

THE EXHIBITION
At The Photographers’ Gallery, London, from 15 – 30 September 2012, and online at ffwe.thephotographersgallery.org.uk from 15 September 2012.
THE MENTORSHIP SCHEME
This year, for the first time, we are offering this scheme in addition to the exhibition opportunity. A number of mentorships will be awarded to finalists, who will be matched with a mentor whose professional/ creative background is relevant to their practice. The mentor and graduate will enter into a yearlong dialogue, offering participants invaluable feedback on their current work and the broader professional and critical context into which it fits.
APPLICATIONS
All applications must be submitted online by 18.00, Monday 2 July 2012.
We invite applications from photographers and artists who graduated from a UK visual arts course, at BA or MA level, in 2011, and for whom photography forms the main component of their work.
