Exploring Photography: Planning and Staging an Exhibition

For many photographers, a photo isn't finished until it has escaped the confines of a computer and made its way onto a wall. In this course, master printer and framer Konrad Eek introduces techniques you can use to prepare and hang an exhibit of your own photos–whether in your living room, a coffee house, or a museum. He introduces the types of spaces that showcase photography and the kinds of photos that work best there, and shows how to print, mat, frame, and price photos for an exhibit.

Next, Konrad takes a selection of images to an exhibition space in Oklahoma City. There he shows how to sequence selections for maximum impact and hang them at the right height and distance apart. The course concludes with tips on other methods of self-promotion available to photographers.
