21st Annual Will's Creek Exhibition

The Allegany Arts Council seeks entries for a juried art exhibition, August 29 - September 26, 2020 at the Saville Gallery in Cumberland, MD. $4,000 in awards. Juror: Jessica Beck - Milton Fine Curator of Art, The Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh. Theme: "Shelter." Shelter can be defined as an establishment that affords protection, cover, food and safety for the homeless, orphaned, or abandoned. Shelter can also be synonymous with home - space to seek refuge from the erratic elements of mother nature, to raise a family or to create personal, private space. Shelter too can be found abstractly through intimacy, such as the familial bonds of a child finding safety in a mother's arms or the warmth and reassurance of a lover's embrace. Climate change, public health crises, migration, have all undermined our collective sense of permanence and shelter. Once understood to be a fixed physical structure, the definition of shelter now feels precarious, subject to change, and boundaries of our private spaces have now become blurred as homes are becoming multifunctional spaces for living, working, schooling, and caring for immediate and extended family members. The habits, functions and fundamental conception of shelter - how we create shelter it, understand it and see it - is now more than ever being redefined. This exhibition will offer various perspectives on shelter by straddling both physical realms of refuge and protection, and the psychological, emotional bonds constituted by human connection. Artists of all mediums and genres are encouraged to apply. Accepted media categories include: ceramics, digital art, drawing, fiber, glass, jewelry, metal, mixed media, new genres, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, video and wood. We are looking for innovative, creative and unique work. Your work should be completed in the last three years and not previously shown in the Saville Gallery. $30 entry fee. Deadline: July 15, 2020 midnight EST. More info. Contact: email or call 301-777-2787.

Let There Be.: An International Call for Lens-Based Art About Tangibility

The Cincinnati based non-profit arts organization and gallery, Manifest, invites visual artists to submit photographic or lens-based works of art about tangibility. Photography and lens-based art is often, even unconsciously, taken for granted as being disembodied from physical reality. However, without catalytic objects such works would not be possible. For this exhibition Manifest is interested in showcasing works that reveal the 'objectness' of photography either through display of the works themselves, the mechanisms crafted to create lens-based experiences, dialogs between photographic works and their physical subjects, or narrative works explaining the complicated entanglement of light and form. The theme is open to very broad interpretation. Submissions can range from the most traditional to the most conceptual, abstract, or experimental photography, photo-based, or lens-based works. $40 for up to 4 entries. $5 per each add'l entry. Deadline: July 25, 2020. More info. Contact: email or call 513-861-3638.

Let Here Be.: An International Call for Art About Tangibility

The Cincinnati based non-profit arts organization and gallery, Manifest, invites visual artists to submit works of any media, subject, or genre (excluding photography or lens-based works) which specifically address tangibility or physicality as a primary aspect of the experience of the work. Whether it be through how media is applied, assembled, or used, subject choices, narrative aspects, or installation considerations, works should cause the viewer to pause and consider their own physicality, or reflect on the nature of being in the gallery space with objects or images, here and now. This exhibit has no defined expectation for type or style of work to be considered or selected. Submissions can range from the most traditional to the most conceptual, abstract, or experimental of any media (but must not be primarily photography, photo-based, or lens-based works). $40 for up to 4 entries. $5 per each additional entry.
