CALL FOR "ARCHITECTURAL UNCONSCIOUS" THEMED ART - April 29, 2011

Possibly the most exquisite combination of "form meets function" exists around us all. For civilizations the architecture that emerged has served a wealth of uses, from the most utilitarian purposes to the most intricate historical records. However, the vast impressiveness and monumental achievement of the architecture we experience, typically distracts us from the efforts that lead to such an enormous structure. "The Architectural Unconscious" is an exhibition that celebrates everything architecture produces, yet overshadows in appreciation. In other words, architecture yields sculptures, drawings, photographs, paintings, plans, detailed models, and many other forms of art that demand our attention. Insightful appreciations for these humble beginnings will undoubtedly provide a more clear perspective for the significance of civilization's structures. All mediums accepted. Entry fee.
