Join us in Congratulating the First Edition 2011 Hot Shots!
After an intense competition, and careful review by our panel, we are thrilled to announce our First Edition 2011 Hot Shots! Huge congratulations to:
Robert Grimm
Laurie Kang
Kevin Kunishi
Laura Plageman
Uygur Yilmaz
Each photographer has earned a $500 honorarium, participation in the Hey, Hot Shot! group show at Jen Bekman Gallery (in January 2012) and is now in the running to win the Grand Prize:
+ A $10,000 honorarium
+ A solo show at Jen Bekman Gallery
+ Two years of gallery representation from Jen Bekman Gallery
It was no easy feat to narrow down the Hot Shots to just five, as this round saw a great number of outstanding submissions. Many thanks to our panel of exceptionally talented professionals—Raul Gutierrez, Todd Hido, Darius Himes, Jenni Holder, Lesley A. Martin, Nion McEvoy, Kent Rogowski and Penelope Umbrico—who joined Jen Bekman, Sara Distin and Jeffrey Teuton in dedicating their time, energy and critical eye to select our first Hot Shots of 2011.
We're looking forward to many collaborations with all of the Hot Shots (and the grand-prize winning Ultra) at the gallery and on 20x200. Stay up to date with 20x200 to see which other First Edition 2011 photographers will release a limited-edition print.
Last, but not least, we'd like to congratulate all of the Contenders and Honorable Mentions for having submitted exceptional work and raising the bar, making it challenging (but oh, so worth it) to select this first round of Hot Shots.
The Honorable Mentions are:
Luis Fabini
Baldomero Fernandez
Meggan Gould
Matt Gunther
Yuji Hamada
Yojiro Imasaka
Alex Kisilevich
Rubi Lebovitch
Martina Lindqvist
Lydia Anne McCarthy
Michelle Marie Murphy
