First Annual Members' Exhibition Juried by Darren Ching, Klompching Gallery
Showcasing Recent Projects by Six National Photographers

The Silver Eye Center for Photography is pleased to present Future Forward, our first annual members' exhibition juried by Darren Ching, owner of Klompching Gallery in Brooklyn, New York, and creative director of Photo District News, the award-winning monthly magazine for the professional photographer.

Future Forward attracted more than 100 national and international photographers who submitted over 1,000 individual images for consideration. From this extremely impressive pool of artists, Darren Ching selected six photographers for this inaugural members' exhibition. They are: Susan A. Barnett (New York, NY); Hope Guzzo (Laurel, MD); Nic Lyons (San Francisco, CA); Leigh Merrill (Dallas, TX); Monika Merva (Brooklyn, NY); and Stephen Strom (Sonoita, AZ).

"The six photographers in the exhibition are as diverse in the concern with the subject, and approach to photography, as the wide scope of entrants from which they were selected," said juror Darren Ching. "As different as they are, they do share a common denominator -- top quality of execution in their work, well-formed ideas and a high level of uniqueness."
