FREE ENTRY / Ohio University School of Art - Alternatives 2025 Presents: Image as Record

‘Alternatives’ is a long-running biennial juried exhibition organized by Ohio University’s MFA Photography and Integrated Media program in The School of Art + Design. This year the show will be juried by Willie Osterman, former Professor and Program Chair of the Fine Art Photography department in the Photographic Arts Department at the Rochester Institute of Technology. The show will be held in ‘Majestic Gallery’ in Nelsonville, Ohio from March 3-25, 2025.

Since its beginning in 1980, Alternatives has achieved national recognition for its leadership in forging new definitions in the medium by emphasizing the work of photographers in the conceptual forefront of the practice. The Alternatives Biennial is funded by the legacies of Clarence White—founder of the historically renowned Clarence White School of Photography in New York—and his son, Clarence White Jr., who re-established the school at Ohio University in 1948, creating the first degree-granting program in photography at a major university in the country.
