The Women In Photography International (WIPI) resource organization
is celebrating its 20th anniversary by launching the traveling exhibition
"International Tea Time: Images of Women, Images of Tea."
which began its run at the House of Photographic Art this fall. The
theme of the juried exhibition was inspired by an image of a teapot
taken by the late photographer Linda McCartney. The 75 works by 60 women
were selected from the over 1000 prints submitted by lens ladies around
the world. Among the single category winners, Carol Nye took first place
in the Women category with her documentary-style images of two veiled
women in China. The WIPI organization also launched the Distinguished
Photographer's Award fifteen years back, which has since recognized
the work of Eve Arnold, Ruth Bernhard, Mary Ellen mark, Ruth Orkin Berenice
Abbott and others. Website www.womeninphotography.org/
