Photo-Art '78

Photo-Art '78

During April and May students on campuses throughout the country have been invited to participate in Photo-Art '78, a national exhibition with entry by way of competition.

The New Zealand Students' Arts Council is looking for ten on campus photographers' work to tour New Zealand in a national exhibition between July and December 1978, going from campus to campus and where possible, public venues.

The aim of Photo-Art '78, is to promote the future of the amateur photographer and so enhance the art of photography in New Zealand.

The exhibition made up of the ten selected photographers, each represented by three to four images, will provoke public reaction and awareness of not only photographic art as a medium of expression in New Zealand, but such an art from in its development; as exemplified by the representative works of the presented artists.

The ten photographers will have their work published in 'Photo Forum', and Kodak NZ LTD are also right behind the Council in placing impetus for the competition on artistic ideals and recognition. Thus Photo-Art '78, as both a national exhibition and competition is rare in this day of ever increasing photographic work.

The New Zealand Students' Arts Council is an independent organisation representing the cultural needs of some 41,000 tertiary students all over New Zealand. Photo-Art '78 is organised in line with one of the Council's three aims, namely to promote the development of student cultural and artistic endeavours.
