It may seem surprising that this list includes such outlets
as speaking engagements and sending out press prints or
CDs, but it is useful to recognize that these are exhibition
opportunities of a particular kind. Such events represent a
time when, just as in a gallery, the photographer’s work
moves out of his or her immediate control and may be seen
by other people without the photographer being there to
interpret it, provide background information, or answer questions
about it.
