Portals: New Perspectives

Portals: New Perspectives is one of PhotoPlace Gallery's recurring juried calls. PhotoPlace Gallery is a photography gallery in Middlebury, Vermont, that programs themed exhibitions on a rolling schedule.

The brief is iconographic: openings, thresholds, and transitions. Windows, doorways, mirrors, gates, archways, and frames within frames. The selection is interested in how photographers use these architectural and visual structures to point beyond what they show.

Selection is by Ann M. Jastrab, Executive Director of the Center for Photographic Art (Carmel-by-the-Sea, California). Single-juror selection.

AI-generated work is not accepted. Eligibility is open globally. Submission is through the gallery's website with 5+ images. Fee is $39. The 2026 deadline was April 6.
