"Women In Photography International Creates Millennium Archive"
2000-12-14 until 2000-12-31
Women in Photography
Los Angeles, CA, USA United States of America

Women In Photography International (WIPI) is gathering names and histories of 2000 women from around the world for a biographical project that will mark the new millennium as well as the heritage of women of photography.

This project will uncover, honor and celebrate artists and professional women who have worked diligently at their craft, yet may have gone (for the most part) unheralded or undocumented, says Jean Ferro, President of Women In Photography International. Jean goes on to say, The nominations will come form all disciplines and professions that women worked in to contribute to the advancement of the photographic arts and sciences.

WIPI curator, author and photo historian Peter E. Palmquist will select the first 100 women from the Women in Photography International Archive. This will seed the project that will eventually evolve into a book, an exhibition, as well as a lasting record of women in the field of photography. All biographical information submitted will be incorporated in to the nearly 27,000 files that are currently on hand in the Women in Photography International Archive.

Established in 1981, Women In Photography International is not for profit organization that is dedicated to the advancement of women in the photographic arts. Their efforts are supported through educational programs, competitions, lectures, awards, exhibits and sponsorships.

For submission guidelines to the 2000 Women in Photography Millennium Project, please visit WIPI online at: www.WomenInPhotography.org or write 2000@WomenInPhotography.org
