HIPSTAGRAM FTW - COPENHAGEN PHOTO FESTIVAL 2013





HIPSTAGRAM FTW*
In connection to the Copenhagen Photo Festival 2013, a competition and exhibition will take place called “HIPSTAGRAM FTW” with photos taken by photographers using Smart Phone APP filters.

The Triangle Project Part 7 and 8 has been involved with Copenhagen Photo Festival and one might call this project the 81/2 version of The Triangle Project.



The categories are:
- Landscape
- Portrait
Everyday Poetry – in a series of at least 5 photos.



The use of Smart Phone filters in combination with Social Media, have made the act of
taking photos a new daily ritual and way of sharing life and situations with people in a Social Network.
Since there is no question that this is part of the future of photography, it will be highlighted, investigated and discussed as a new aspect for the world of photography.




The competition will be judged by the Directors of Copenhagen Photo Festival Rasmus
Ranum and Julie Navne Klitbo, the Photographer and Photo Editor of the Danish
Newspaper Politiken, Per Folkver and the Artist and Photographer Jacob Fuglsang Mikkelsen.



Instructions:
Send up to ten (10) images per photographer, either as individual photos or as part
of a series. The photos should be sent either one by one, or as a dropbox.com link to the
email address: hipstagram@copenhagenphotofestival.com




Take the photos during this lovely month of May 2013, or use ones you taken before and send them in no later than the 29th of May, 18:00 Copenhagen time.





Once the photos have been selected for the exhibition, they will be printed and shown
as part of the official program of the Copenhagen Photo Festival 2013 and featured in Snap Magazine.
The Final winner of the single best photo or a series of five photos, will win the latest iphone 5 with a one year free mobile phone account.





On June 13 th 17:00 – 19:00 at Fotografisk Center, there will be a paneldebate with Director of Fotografisk Center Kristine Kern as moderator. There will be three short presentations of photography relating to
the premises of the competition and a small celebration for the winner and other photographers selected to be in the exhibition

NEKE CARSON, COLETTE AND ANTON PERICH - WHAT ELSE CAN YOU ASK FOR?




FRESH FACES FROM THE 1970s



An evening of art, film, and conversation

Marc H. Miller of online Gallery 98 in conversation with
three boundary-pushing artists from the 1970s



NEKE CARSON.  As a performance artist and maker of objects, Carson’s
transgressive humor made him a media favorite in the 1970s.  His
provocative oeuvre includes: “guerilla performances” in Soho galleries
 without permission; his notorious paintings; and
audience-participation pieces that redefined the relationship between
viewers and art. Neke will explain all and show the short video “I Love You.”

Paintings, music video, projections, installations

COLETTE.  Famous in the 1970s for her sleeping performances in store
windows and art spaces, her live-in environments, her “fine art”
street graffiti for which she was once arrested, and her forays into
fashion and music, Colette was a familiar presence in both nightclubs
and museums.  She will share her art philosophy and introduce “Pirate
in Venice,” a short film about her recent participation in the Venice Biennale.

ANTON PERICH.  Always with his camera at hand, Perich was both a
documenter and provocateur in the 1970s.  He contributed to Interview
Magazine, and created new venues like his pioneering cable television
show and Night Magazine.  He also made paintings with “electronic
brushstrokes” created by a painting machine that he first invented in
the 1970s. Anton will talk about his paintings and screen excerpts
from his controversial cable show.

MARC H. MILLER.  Miller, whose website 98 Bowery, a chronicle of his
journey as an artist, curator and journalist in the 1970s inspired the
 recent New Museum exhibition “Come Closer: Art Around the Bowery,
1969-89,” is the host of the evening. Gallery 98 specializes in art
and ephemera from that period.
