We've got some great news to share with you about gallery artist Susan Burnstine. First, Susan has, over the past months, released seven new images in her Absence of Being series. (All her new images are included in this message.) In addition, big congratulations go out to Susan who has been selected one of 16 California-based photographers who will be included in Staking Claim: A California Invitational at the Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego.

The Invitational is a triennial exhibit that gives the museum an opportunity to showcase "the talent of and diverse scope of photographic work being done by photographers living within the Museum's home state." The museum goes on to describe the exhibit this way: "The artists are both established and emerging and the variety of work is as varied as the state of California itself. Staking Claim: A California Invitational embraces the digital medium but also remains true to, and in some cases reinterprets, traditional photographic processes. The result is a dynamic exhibition that highlights the constant evolution of the art form."

Susan will be in some great company in the exhibit with photographers including Todd Hido, Doug Rickard, John Chiara, Mona Kuhn, David Maisel, Matthew Brandt, Eric William Carroll, Chris Engman, Robbert Flick, Siri Kaur, Matt Lipps, Klea McKenna, Mark Ruwedel, Paul Schiek and Christina Seely.

The exhibit will run from October 8, 2013 to January 26, 2014. We hope, if you're in the San Diego area during the run of the show, that you'll be able to visit the museum. There's also a wonderful catalog for the exhibit that you might want to make part of your collection of photographic books.
