Today I processed the final few rolls of film shot for EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT.

Great news: received notification today of my acceptance into the much-blogged about ONE HOUR PHOTO exhibit happening May 8—June 6, 2010 at the American University Museum at the Katzen Arts Center here in DC.  The premise for the exhibit is provocative, as each of the participating artists will have a single photograph projected in the gallery space for one hour’s time.  Following that hour the photograph is to be never shown again.  Anywhere.  Anytime.  To back this agreement up, each artist will have signed a “morally binding” agreement and testament to the release of the photograph into the ether.  More info on the show, along with a schedule for when many of the GREAT photographers will have their work projected, is at ONEHOURPHOTOPROJECT.com.  Most notable among the list of participants are photographer/writer/educator extraordinaire Tim Davis, Guggenheim Fellow Brian Ulrich, LayFlat founder Shane Lavalette, musician John Vanderslice, as well as other personal favorites like Gregory Halpern and Jason Lazarus.  Most fun are the many other DCists that were tapped including Transformer Gallery Manager Marissa Long and the much admired/fellow Corcoran professor Frank DiPerna.

I’m not exactly sure how it is that I’ve found myself in such esteemed company, and even though its only for an hour I’ll certainly take it.
