This exhibition explores how environments shape the perceptions and positions that guide ideas of self, connection to others, and collective activity. It poses the question- how does the amount of time spent in a specific environment also affects one’s vision towards it?

THE EPHEMERAL AND THE EVANESCENCE PERCEPTION
Call for Exhibition │Free entry
Accepted media: Photography, Digital Visual Design, Video
Group Exhibition in Rome or Milan city. June 2022
–
Since the Paleolithic age, man, in leaving a mark and trace of himself on a support, has always shown an interest in grasping from the experience of life what he believes to have an important meaning, attributing to it a particular value. This anthropological behavior is well testified by the history of art, behavior which, with the evolution of man, reflects that greater awareness of the concept of transience, changeability and the ephemeral state of existence of things.
It is above all to the concept of “beauty” and “good” that modern man attributes the absolute values of his existence, concepts that are still conveyed today by every medium dedicated to art, from painting to photography, from video to digital media etc ..
The very nature of many new technologies of art demonstrate, in their production process, a purpose that has to do with the evanescent physicality of things of our reality, as photography demonstrates, with its retaining on the surface what passes through an evanescent and impalpable “writing of light”.
It is quite often precisely the ephemeral state of things and the evanescent perception of them that arouse in us a passionate participation with them, useful to feed our being and to reactivate our senses.

IF THE SHOE FITS… The 2022 Judith Hendler Design Awards presented in partnership with the Huntington Beach Art Center is a celebration of sustainable art, fashion and design. Submission link opens March 1, 2022.
Fashion jewelry designer, Judith Hendler, challenges enrolled Community College students in any of the visual art or crafts design departments and current HBAC members to define core sustainability concepts of reduce, reuse and repurpose within their own practices.
A SHOE IN Accepted submissions must use the concept of footwear, no matter how it is distorted or re-imagined. Inspiration may also be taken from the common references to shoes in everyday language.
The shape, form or idea of a shoe, boot, slipper, sandal or sneaker must be evident in the submission. An actual shoe or part of a shoe may be manipulated to create a new artwork. Heels, soles, leather and fabric, laces and straps are all fair game.
Award winners and honorable mentions will make the shoe motif or design central to the artwork in an unusual and interesting way. Where possible, recycled/repurposed/reused is greatly encouraged.
ELIGIBILITY Participation is open to enrolled Southern California Community College students in the fashion, visual arts or crafts (design, painting, woodworking, sculpture, ceramics) with a faculty sponsor and to Huntington Beach Art Center (HBAC) members 18 years of age and older.

Centered on the Center 2022 Presented by the Huntington Beach Art Center
Annual Open Call, Non-Juried Exhibition | JANUARY 29 – MARCH 5, 2022
The Huntington Beach Art Center quietly celebrated a quarter century of community service in 2021. In those years since the doors first opened, Centered on the Center remained a fixture. Year after year, hundreds of artists shared new artwork as the Art Center continued to grow.
Artworks of every media — experimental and traditional, substrate and style, and so much more — flowed through the Art Center’s 3000 square foot galleries every January to kick off the new year. As the word spread, so did our audience and the quality of the submitted artworks.
In 2022, we invite you, our treasured community of artists to join us again, or perhaps for the first time, in this annual exhibition. The salon-style installation limits participation to the first 200 hundred artists to register. Artworks are installed by our expert staff to give each work a featured spot within the display.
We encourage you to get started early and reach out with any questions. HBAC staff are available for submission consultations. The HBAC website is regularly updated with the most current information and forms.
