Doylestown, Pa. – The Pennsylvania Center for Photography and

Stephanie Lisle, Promotion of the Arts, are excited to present

TRANSFORMATIONS, A Juried, Photographic Exhibition of the Imagination,

opening November 4, 2016, in Doylestown, Pennsylvania.

Photographers from seven countries and 22 states in the U.S. entered their

impressions of the competition’s theme, paying tribute to the altered and

manipulated image.

The exhibit is comprised of both a traditional print exhibition as well as a large

screen digital display.

The debate about purity in photography is a longstanding one and has a rich

history. However, it has reached new levels of voracity as the use of the

transformative graphics software has exploded. Many shows, and even more

judges, as well as members of the viewing public have been dismissive of

photographs whose basic nature has been altered by the photographer in post

production. Well, not anymore!

The TRANSFORMATIONS Exhibition was conceived and is designed to be a

showcase solely for the exceptional imagery being created by innovative

photographers who use all of the tools available to them. Consider

TRANSFORMATIONS to be a home base for your imagination.

TRANSFORMATIONS seeks to give the many talented artists creating enhanced

imagery a venue to have their work seen by people who applaud and respect the

creativity involved.

The photography software company Topaz Labs graciously provided prizes and

give-ways for this exhibition.

The exhibit will open on November 4, 2016, at the Pennsylvania Center for

Photography on 181 East Court Street in Doylestown, Pennsylvania with an

opening reception from 6-8pm. This event is open to the public and you are

invited to join us in the celebration and tribute to TRANSFORMATIONS. The

opening is supported by Flash Graphics, Inc, a large format, digital printing

company in Doylestown.

Awards in a variety of categories will be presented at the reception and

Rutherford’s Camera Shop in Doylestown generously sponsored our first place

winning awards.

Throughout the exhibition, which runs from November 4 – 20, 2016, you are

invited to browse the exhibit during gallery hours on Thursdays through Sundays,

and join us for our free “Saturday Morning Series” when we invite special guest

speakers to discuss subjects relevant to the world of photography. For schedule
