if you have shots of lions, tigers, panthers, leapords or any of
the big cats, they work too! Whether it's cute kitties or
prowling hunters, farm cat or city kitty -- if it's feline-based
you're good to go. We're even looking for girls in cat suits! So
what's new, pussycat? This month 1650 investigates the
fascinating world of this complex and fascinating creature...

Spontaneous
Contests, Juried Art Shows - Oil, Art Gallery
Spontaneity is the hallmark for great documentary and street
photography where the moments of life, often ironic, poignant,
emotionally charged, tragic or absurd are frozen.Photography
provides the means to capture a moment but which moment makes
all the difference. Well known masters include Henri
Cartier-Bresson and W. Eugene Smith with recent discoveries such
as Vivian Maier and Frank Oscar Larson adding to a long list of
great photographers.Many of the scenes captured by practitioners
of this art, with the possible exception of war and extreme
sports documentary, pass before us every day, but we do not see.
This exhibit is dedicated to those who strive to see, realize
and then manifest vision and moment into an image so that we can
all see what is right in front of us or inaccessible in some
other way. Showing us the remarkable moments that make up the,
often unconscious, Human Experience.Juror: Nikos
EconomopoulosNikos Economopoulos began his photography career
inn 1988 with a long-term project in Greece and Turkey. He
photographed whatever he came across on his daily walks: street
scenes, public gatherings, solitary meanderers, or deserted
landscapes. In 1990 After joining Magnum Economopoulos'
photographs began to appear in newspapers and magazines
worldwide. In the same year he started to take photographs in
Albania, Bulgaria, Romania and the former Yugoslavia,
investigating the territorial, ethnic and religious tensions of
the region, as well as the endurance of traditional social and
religious rites. This work earned him the Mother Jones Award in
1992.

Call for Applications : Turps Art School /
Painting Studio Programme
Other - , Art Gallery
Peter Ashton Jones and Marcus Harvey have long held the view
that an artist led painting school could flourish in a climate
where there is growing disquiet about the quality of painting
tuition, inadequate tutorial input and rise in tuition fees on
too many established fine art courses. The Editors feel it is
time to respond to this in much the same way that a painting
magazine run by practicing painters has fulfilled a need for
many painters with a desire for intellectual stimulus and focus
in this area.In September 2012, we are launching a unique
opportunity for a select group of painters take up residence in
their own dedicated studio space within a landmark new arts
complex and embark on a 12 month intensive programme of
mentoring, dynamic group seminars, talks and lectures.
Culminating in a group exhibition in London in 2013. In this
studio context we expect to focus on the specific qualities an
artist brings with a view to developing their practice. The
course is designed to fulfil a back to basics and broad view of
what we believe a solid painting course requires.Year One of the
Turps Art School: Painting Studio Programme will begin in
September 2012 and end in August 2013.Applications process is
now open and will close on 16 April 2012For further details
about fees, eligibility and application process please contact
