LENS 2026

Perspective Gallery is pleased to announce LENS 2026, our 16th annual juried international exhibition of fine art photography. Photographers are invited to submit work for possible inclusion in the exhibition. All subject matter and photographic processes, except AI, are welcome.

JUROR: Ann M. Jastrab

Ann M. Jastrab is the Executive Director at the Center for Photographic Art (CPA) in Carmel, California. CPA strives to advance photography through education, exhibition and publication. Before CPA, Ann worked as the gallery director at RayKo Photo Center and the gallery manager at Scott Nichols Gallery, both in San Francisco, California. Besides being a curator and an educator, Ann is a writer and editor, and a fine art photographer who still carries around a wooden view camera…and a metal one too.

SUBMISSIONS

Photographers are invited to submit up to five (5) photographic images in JPEG format which have been created within the past five years. We are not accepting AI images for this call. Work previously shown in LENS cannot be submitted. Applicants should complete their entry and upload their images at: CaFÉ (https://artist.callforentry.org/festivals_unique_info.php?ID=15881). By submitting work, applicants agree to permit Perspective Gallery to use their images in publicity with attribution; photographers retain copyright to their work. File names should be the title of the work, but not include the artist’s name.
