After a lot of work over the last year or more and a intensive 6 day installation, ImageObject has opened to the public. The opening event was very well attended, two floors of the Center for Alternative Photography – the gallery and skylight studio ones, were packed with people who were very enthusiastic about the show. We will post images of the opening soon but here is the news of the prize awards the jurors arrived at.

Takashi Arai was awarded first prize for his daguerrotype “Miharu, Fukushima”, Binh Danh was awarded second place for “In Memory of our troops: 6371, Dec 25 2011” and Nate Gibbons was awarded third place with “Debris-logs”.

The jurors also awarded three honourable mentions; John Hurlock – “Tunnel View, Yosemite”, Jerome Monnier – “Le Vert Galant” and Curtis Wehrfritz – “As Above, So Below”
