An exhibition opportunity ..

Postby Nevil Zaveri » Sat Nov 06, 2021 11:33 am

Dear Friends,

It has been a long time dream to exhibit prints of some great images from our forum. Since last 8 years I am exhibiting few prints of some visionary photographer, followed by works of my students, in Forestry dept of Navsari Agricultural University. So far we have exhibited works of Jayesh Joshi, Ganesh Shankar, Aratikumar Rao, Nirvair Singh, Vineet Vohra, Ghanshyam Savani n late Shri Ashvin Mehta .. see here. Due to covid, this time we have a big space that can exhibit 25-30 prints of a guest photographer .. that made me think 'Why not from best of CNP?'. In a way, that will help build a collection of prints that can be exhibited in various education institutions, later.

For the same, I will require adobe / RGB, 300 dpi, 12" on shorter side soft copies of the below displayed images, without borders or any watermark. Original RAW copy will be better, but also send presented copy, if processed heavily. We are planning to exhibit only one image per currently active member, but have asked for 2-3 images, in case I can't manage any in print I can try another. Your images shall be only used once and that too for the said purpose. I promise to not to let any misuse and shall delete all the files, once printing is done. I will be printing all by myself on Satin photo-paper. Kindly note that this is a non-commercial exhibition so no compensation will be paid to the photographer and all the printing / displaying charges shall be borne by our University. Also note that all files may not be printable due to high resolution fineness requirements and we may avoid some repetition of content.

If you agree to all the above, kindly mail me your files with subject 'for CNP exhibition' to nevilzaveri@gmail.com by 20th Nov 2021. For convenience, kindly name your image/s file/s as Name_Surname_No eg. Nevil_Zaveri_02. Once we receive files, we will have few edits for display flow and decide on which may go for print.
Below is the list of images we have sorted ..

Thank you for reaching out Nevil sir, this seems to be a great idea! The set of images you have selected are really inspiring and a treat to eyes. I feel happy to see two of my images selected above for which I would love contributing.

Dear Friends,

It's my pleasure to announce that all prints are done and all displayed in the thumbnails has turned out well. All images are printed on Satin paper, with archival ink.
A bad news is that we have to postpone our exhibition due to corona spike in our state. Soon new date of exhibition shall be announced .. hopefully, around mid-february 2022.

Dear Nevil, very nice to see the prints rolling out! I am sure they will look great on the exhibition walls. I hope Covid will recede in coming months and travel plans will become more predictable.

A great initiative Nevil. If it's so exciting to see just the thumbnails of the images then I am sure the actual exhibit is a stunner.

As for those of us like me who are not physically available to see the exhibit in Navsari, I would like to propose we also hold a digital exhibit of the same on our Digital exhibit App called ImageIn. For those who are uninitiated about ImageIn, its a digital exhibit application that can be installed on SmartTVs and Smart Phones to view digital exhibits without any physical barriers. The USP of ImageIn is the ability to see our images big on todays hi-def smart TVs. If seeing an image live in print is the best thing in this world, then seeing these images big on TVs is the next best thing given the physical and geographical constraints. The ImageIn app is a free download on Android TVs, Amazon fireTVstick and Android Mobiles.

I propose we host a 3 week exhibit of the images and the exhibit will be again non-commercial in nature just like its physical counterpart.

In case you want to learn more about ImageIn you can also read this tech news stub that was published a couple of years ago.

https://www.deccanherald.com/city/life- ... 06038.html

As a proud member (although non-contributing now) of the CNP community I have learnt a heap from the collective wisdom of this elite group and this is something I want to contribute personally to help spread the word and the vision of CNP. If the moderators and members think its a good idea to host a digital exhibit then I would be more than honoured to provide the platform and I shall also clarify the logistics of getting this exhibit on Air!

Thanks

Thank you Anders, Sriharsha n everyone.
@Sriharsha, yes that's nice idea esp when far away people can't reach for the exhibition. We will certainly discuss and if required, ask the permission of all the members to share their resized images for the TV.

As per the visitors n messages, people were very much impressed to see images in print. Also, I got lots of inquiry from few members n others too, regarding how the exhibition was setup. So here I am sharing few images to show that and also movies giving some idea of how it looks .. below is a pamphlet (with title n respective photographer's name) we gave to visitors and kept a team of students to help them in case they find difficulty understanding the content or technicality ..

I had the privilege of visiting the exhibition on Saturday.Watching my favorite images from CNP in print form was an amazing experience.All images looked much better than on my monitor. As Nevilbhai was with me,it was a good learning experience as he explained details about printing challenges & how to overcome them. It was great show indeed. Would love to see all these & some more prints exhibited during our next CNP meet.

Thank you Nevil Sir for sharing us few glimpses of 'behind the scenes' effort in organizing the exhibition.
Thanks to all the students and organizers of the university who made the exhibition happen amidst current COVID scenario.
On a personal note, it is the first time that my work is being exhibited and I owe this completely to CNP community!

Hi All,

How would a digital exhibit of these beautiful images on your TVs and Android phones sound? Its for people who were unable to view the live exhibit due to the physical & covid related reasons, and have an Android TV or FireTV to view the exhibit images big on your TV screens.

Thank you Ganesh and everyone for kind words. Sorry for late reply as I was away for many days.

There's lot more than little I have done .. apart from our team's support n hearty contribution from our members, free hand from our university authorities and always helping hands of my course colleagues n students, has made everything possible. Once again, thanks to all of you.

@Sriharsha,
I have discussed and we are willing to mail you low resolution (apt for TV display) of the exhibition images, provided it will have a non-commercial use. We wish you keep the same order and also mention photographer's name below each image.
Please, do upload the link / video here too :)

If anyone don't want to contribute your image, kindly message me within a week. After this I will also delete all the images from my harddrive, to avoid any possibility of misuse. I will be sending all the prints to Ganesh, which can be used for future exhibitions.

Warm regards.

Thanks Nevil and everyone for the sign off. Yes the exhibit will be a non-commercial one just like the physical exhibit. I can retain the order as per your preference and I will also include the artist name below each image. I also have the option of including the Image title if it makes sense to be displayed with the picture.

I have created a google drive link for uploading the images. Please upload the images there. The images need to be 1920pix on the long side (irrespective of its orientation or aspect ratio)

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing

Let me know incase of any questions.
