Chaos Exhibit
O’Hanlon Center Gallery
Nov 19 – Dec 19, 2024
Juried by Chester Arnold
IN-GALLERY SHOW ONLY.
O’Hanlon Center for the Arts invites you to submit work for our Chaos Exhibition 2024
“Art is chaos taking shape,” Pablo Picasso
Step away from reason and logic. Step away from learned hard and fast art rules. Step into splashy, drippy, spontaneous, unpredictable work that looks chaotic but seems to have an internal logic and intelligence to it.
Remember Guernica, Pablo Picasso’s interpretation of chaos, which embodies all the agitation, panic, emotional and physical movement of chaos. View Jackson Pollock and Cornelia Parker and see how they portrayed chaos in their work. Chaos is all around us.
All artists are requested to think about chaos in their inner imaginings or in their feelings about the outer world they live. We are looking for how you, the artist, create a work that portrays chaos, and express it in the medium of your choice.
MEDIA: All Media
Open to all artists aged 16 and over

About the Juror:
Chester Arnold
My paintings are part of a visual dialogue running the length and breadth of human history. The search for excellence in this Art and Craft has led me to explore the natural world and the human events that inhabit it, constructing narratives that celebrate and question our presence in the world.
Although representational, I seek a way of painting that is richly traditional, yet radically and surprisingly new. I attempt to articulate more than the surfaces and dimensions of reality, summoning the wordless meanings and sensations that only visual art can.
