STUDENT GIVE WATER A VOICE ART COMPETITION - March 22, 2011

We hear about climate change in the news every day. But what we don’t hear about is changing water -- either too much or too little! Some communities experience heavy rainfall and extreme flooding; while others face a chronic need to find more water as local sources are running dry. Some are even seeing their communities disappear due to rising seas. Two winners (one national and one international) will be selected from each age group and each form of media. Prizes will be made up of art supplies, books, or video equipment, depending on the type of submission.

CALL FOR SUPERSIZED THEMED ART - March 31, 2011

What fuels our fascination with obscene quantities and obsessive amounts? From supersized to overstuffed, from bulk to buy-one-get-one, we are in a constant quest for more, more, more; yet we decry the after-effects of over-consumption. How do artists interpret these ideas in their work? This exhibition explores the art of the supersized. The jury seeks work that tackles the absurdity of art and life on a grand-scale. From humorous depictions to critical commentary, we seek works that address these issues through their scale, proportion, and witty approach. All media welcome; installations and new media encouraged. Open to all media; new media & installations encouraged; indoor & outdoor works; cash awards. Entry fee.

CALL FOR "PHOTOGRAPHY UNSEEN" - January 28, 2011

Our culture is inundated by the photographic image. Everyday of our lives we face a multitude of varying photographs. Yet, we rarely contemplate the implications of a single picture. Instead, we have become desensitized and too often this rich form of information is taken for granted. Photography Unseen is an exhibition that invites artists to address this concern via a unique perspective, there are no photographs allowed. The subject is photography but all mediums except the photographic print may be included. Perhaps this strategy will spawn a more dynamic appreciation for something we encounter so often. Open to national and international artists of all levels. Entry fee.
