NOT THE SAME OLD
same old

My favorite restaurant added a whole new selection of side items from creamed cauliflower to spaghetti squash Parmesan.  I love it when the old standard surprises you with a little refresher.  This next Call is a perfect example.  One of my favorite photography-specific galleries is offering their FIRST non-photographic solo show.  So exciting…

Check out this Call for Entries for Spring Featured Artist – Abstraction from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, VA). The entry fee is higher than our norm, but remember…you’re gambling on a SOLO show.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Abstraction

 

Abstract art is an exploration of color, form, movement, or other intangibles that need not be wedded to a recognizable subject. Such work is limited only by the imagination. Non-figurative art, nonobjective art, and nonrepresentational art are all acceptable.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists

MEDIA:  The Kiernan Gallery seeks a body of 2D, non-photographic work that partially or fully obscure the recognizable world.

DEADLINE:  February 20, 2013

NOTIFICATION:  Approx. 8 days later

ENTRY FEE: 8 -10 pieces for $50

AWARDS: A one-month solo show.  A feature on The Kiernan Gallery’s blog and website.   An electronic show card designed and distributed by The Kiernan Gallery.

SALES: Kiernan Gallery no longer takes commission on sold works. But, they DO still have incentive to sell your work. The Kiernan Gallery was founded by an emerging artist, and recognizes the importance of selling work; they believe that if artists are paying a submission fee, the gallery should not also take a portion of the sale. They do reserve the right to negotiate 20% in order to make a sale.
