Punto y Raya Junior 2012 | Abstract photography Call for entries

This entry call is addressed to CHILDREN aged between 6 and 12 years. Submissions are made through a RESPONSIBLE ADULT or SCHOOLS and other INSTITUTIONS acting in their behalf.

It's open to abstract photography exploring dots and lines in various contexts. No representation, only dots and lines as ends in themselves!

There is no entry fee and the submissions can be made online.

DEADLINE: Sunday, September 30th 2012

GENERAL RULES

: There are three different categories according to the applicants' ages:

· MINI: 6 & 7 year-olds.
· MEDIUM: 8, 9 & 10 year-olds.
· MAXI: 11 & 12 year-olds.

: The photographs must be abstract. We encourage the children to explore dots and lines in nature and their everyday lives. Just remember: No representation!

: Photographs can be created using any kind of technique or capturing device (digital photo, Polaroid, webcam, 35mm. slide film, photographic film, cameraless·photo...)

: Photos must be submitted in digital format. For selection purposes, please upload the photos in a medium resolution (JPG, JPEG, GIF or PNG formats, 2MB maximum size per file). High-resolution photos should be attached later, and can be sent on a CD/DVD by mail, or online via a public file hosting server or DropBox. More details below :)

: We strongly advise the use of a high-resolution setting, as the photos might be printed out for their exhibition at the CCCB (150 or 300 dpi)
