The deadline for Hey, Hot Shot!'s first round of competition in 2009 has been extended through this weekend! Entries must now be completed by Tuesday, May 5th at 11:00 p.m. EST.

Don't miss this chance to get your work out there. The opportunities and exposure available for Hot Shots, honorable mentions and *all* contenders are better than ever. Apply now!

As you might already know, Jen Bekman and Jeffrey Teuton, Associate Director of the JB Gallery, are representing a slew of Hot Shots at NEXT Art Fair in Chicago this weekend.

And, this last week we featured photography editions from two Hot Shots on 20x200: see Forest. Exclusion Zone, Chernobyl and Dinner. Village of Zorin, Exclusion Zone, Chernobyl by Second Edition 2008 Hot Shot Donald Weber. Spring 2005 Hot Shot Matthew Tischler released his second double edition, offering Untitled #17 and Untitled #9 as follow-ups to his popular Untitled #4 and Untitled #15, all from Screen Series. Matthew's photographs have been snatched up by collectors since they were previewed in Domino magazine (RIP!).

IMPORTANT: all photography submitted to Hey, Hot Shot! is considered for 20x200. Hey, Hot Shot! is the only way we review photography for 20x200 so rest assured that even if we can't post about your entry here (as per usual, there are just too many amazing entries to get them all on the blog!) your work will still be reviewed for 20x200. In the meantime, we'll do our best and continue posting about contenders until the Hot Shots are announced on Thursday, May 28th.

So what are you waiting for? Get your work out there: Apply Now!
