Conclave Journal Seeks Photography
May 25 2008 11:02 Filed in: Updates
Most of you know that Conclave: A Journal of
Character is accepting character-driven
submissions of fiction, nonfiction, poetry,
flash fiction, prose poems, and dramatic
excerpts; but we are also accepting black and
white photographs.
Conclave seeks photos of pristine composition and revelatory content, black and white photographs that evoke personality, an unforgettable story, a compelling emotion, the decisive moment.
The photographs of Henri Cartier-Bresson, father of modern photojournalism, captured characters. When speaking of Martin Munkácsi’s photo, Three Boys at Lake Tanganyika, Cartier-Bresson said, “I suddenly understood that photography can fix eternity in a moment.”
Conclave is a character-focused journal, and they want the photographs that they feature to reflect that sensibility. Clearly, there are other styles and methods for capturing character in photography. Like Cartier-Bresson, they are looking to capture “fixed eternity in a moment.”
Conclave is accepting submissions on the Conclave site, but they have also started a flickr group:

Conclave Journal is accepting submissions until July 1, 2008. So if you have writing or photography to share, visit www.conclavejournal.com
