CALL FOR ART WORK - NUDES
Deadline:
Tue Sep 27, 2005 15:53
Call for Art Work: NUDES: The nude human figure in artistic representation
This juried show is for artwork in any medium that depicts a nude or nudes in its subject matter or presentation.
The nude has been a constant and enduring theme in American art despite our country’s Puritan beginnings. The nude remains an important subject in contemporary art, despite current conservative influences.
The broad range of media and artists' stylistic approaches to the nude are varied — photography, video, painting, sculpture, drawing, academic, realistic, abstract, surrealist.
The show will be juried by:
Rob Clifford, Director & Curator of The Clifford-Smith Gallery, Boston
&
Nick Johnson, Director of Photographic Exhibitions & Instructor, New England School of Photography (NESOP)
There will be a cash award for the work selected by the jury that depicts a nude or nudes in a conventional/classical manner. A cash award will also be given to the work selected that depicts a nude or nudes in an unconventional/creative manner.
Artists may submit up to 2 works. The submission fee for 2 pieces of art is $15.00; the fee for one piece $10.00. Make checks payable to: Laurie Hoffma. Mailing address: Atlantic Works Gallery, 80 Border Street, 4th floor, East Boston, MA 02128, Attention: Juried Show
