This afternoon I am taking time to judge applications for The Tierney Fellowship. The Fellowship was created in 2003 by The Tierney Family Foundation to support emerging artists in the field of photography. The primary goal of the Fellowship is to find tomorrow’s distinguished artists and leaders in the world of photography and assist them in overcoming the challenges that a photographer faces at the beginning of his or her career. ClampArt’s own Joshua Lutz was a Fellow in 2007.

The work is very strong across the board. Interestingly, the applications are mostly documentary this year.
