About Street or Studio

In conjunction with the exhibition Street & Studio: A History of Urban Photography, Tate Modern invites you to contribute your own urban portraits to be shown in the gallery, and to have the chance to be part of the Street or Studio user-generated photobook.

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Street & Studio: A History of Urban Photography at (Tate Modern 22 May – 31 August 2008) presents a history of photographic portraiture: taken on the street or in the photographer’s studio.
It contrasts carefully orchestrated studio shots with images captured in the changing and uncontrollable street, highlighting the crossovers between the genres and their influence on each other.

SUBMITTING YOUR PHOTOGRAPH
To submit a photograph to the exhibition, simply join this group and contribute your photograph anytime until 27 July 2008.

You can add up to 2 photos to the group.
How do I submit my photograph?

Submissions to the group are moderated, so it may take up to a day for your photograph to appear in the group.

BEFORE YOU ADD YOUR PHOTOGRAPH
• Your photograph must be an urban portrait, so it must contain at least one figure.
• It can be a posed 'studio' portrait or a snatched 'street' snapshot (or of course a posed shot on the street, or a studio shot made to look spontaneous etc - you get the idea).

We encourage you to also mark the location that your photograph was taken using Flickr’s 'Place this photo on a map' feature.

DISPLAY ONLINE AND AT TATE MODERN
This group's photographs will be displayed on a screen at Tate Modern. The photographs will also be on the exhibition website on Tate Online.

STREET OR STUDIO: THE USER-GENERATED PHOTOBOOK
In the final weeks of the exhibition, 100 photographs will be chosen to form a book – Street or Studio.
A panel of curators, artists, photographers and others will select the 100 photographs. These 100 photographs will then be a slideshow on the screen in the gallery, and also be archived on Tate Online as part of the exhibition's website. The book will be produced by Blurb, and if your photograph is selected for inclusion, you will receive a copy of the book. Once it is produced, further copies of the book will be available through the Blurb bookstore.

The judges who will select the 100 photographs to be included in the photobook are:
Juergen Teller: artist whose work is included in the exhibition
Ute Eskildsen: curator of Street and Studio: An Urban History of Photography
Heather Champ: photographer and member of the Flickr team

Note: By adding your photo to this group, you are giving Tate permission to display your photo on Tate Online, in the exhibition Street & Studio: A History of Urban Photography at Tate Modern and in other online and offline material to promote this project. View the “Street or Studio” project Terms and Conditions and Tate Online Privacy Statement for additional details.

We'd like to say a huge thank you to Flickr and Blurb for their support and enthusiasm.
