SHIM Art Network and the Bushwick Community Darkroom are happy to announce SHIM/Photography, an exhibition series in partnership with Atlantic Gallery in New York, NY in Spring 2022. Between 40 to 50 artists will be selected to exhibit their work in a SHIM/Photography exhibition at Atlantic Gallery for two weekends in April 2022; with plans to extend the project to another venue in New York City after the completion of the Atlantic Gallery exhibition. Participating artists will also be considered for full annual membership in the Atlantic Gallery Digital and the SHIM/Darkroom SHIM Exhibitor Groups. Artists chosen for this will also receive an upload of their 3 selected works to SHIM/Artsy.

For this exhibit we are spreading the net wide in hopes of gathering a broad selection of exceptional photographic work. Images may be digital or film based, and both framed and unframed prints will be exhibited. Print size may not exceed 11x14”.

Curatorial selections will be made based on the preferences of the Bushwick Community Darkroom curatorial team composed of Lucia Rollow and Justin Aversano.
