JELL-OH-NO!
I am currently going through what my husband has dubbed the “Super Suzie” phase. It has a name because every time I take a few weeks off from working outside of my home office, I take on this Super-Woman-like persona that cooks and cleans and nests. It doesn’t last long because I’m not particularly good at it. Occasionally, it spins out of control and results in molded gelatin “delicacies”. This next Call might be better way to for me (and you) to express our Natural vs. Constructed theories. Trust me on this one…
Check out this Open Call from The Painting Center (NY, NY) for Natural/Constructed Spaces. This is a reasonable fee for a Chelsea exhibition opportunity because I know some of you are still searching for the elusive New York Show. Take a look…
*Editor’s Note: If you have read the personal portion of this post, OPEN CALL: Natural/Constructed Spaces, anywhere other than by email subscription or on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com, it has been published without permission and is considered theft.
The Painting Center, a gallery in the heart of Chelsea, announces a call for entries for its upcoming juried exhibition entitled Natural/Constructed Spaces, running from June 19th to July 14th, 2012. The exhibit will be accompanied by a printed catalog and will be widely publicized.
As artists, we are all compelled to create and look at images of the natural and man made worlds in which we live. Through these images we are able to express nostalgia for a simpler, more pristine world, bring attention to environmental degradation, or ponder the wonders and despair of today’s urban centers.
For Natural/Constructed Spaces, The Painting Center invites representational and abstract painters to submit work that considers all aspects– natural, constructed, deconstructed– of rural/urban/suburban environments in the 21st century.
ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists
MEDIA:
Representational & abstract painting
DEADLINE: April 15, 2012
