Call for Submissions: Two-Dimensional Temporary Public Art Installation
Rochester Contemporary Art Center invites artists to propose three images for a temporary public art installation on site outside RoCo. Through this call for art we aim to offer a simple submission process for incisive, surprising, and unique imagery that will enliven the East Avenue neighborhood. Of particular interest are projects that connect visitors to the location, community and/or history of the neighborhood, challenge visitors and passersby, and address important social and political issues. RoCo welcomes visual artists of all genres, and also invites visual artists to collaborate with literary artists as we have previously shown in this location.
The selected series of three images will be exhibited to the public 24/7 for 4-6 months. The duration will be determined with RoCo staff based on the season and concept of the project. The images will be printed on a weather-safe material at about 9′ h x 6′ w. Selected projects will require the following resolution: 12,000 px (h) x 8,000 px (w). The artist will receive a $400 stipend & use fee for exhibiting preexisting images. If an artist is interested in creating new works for this submission, please contact us. All production and installation costs are covered by RoCo.
Entangled: Juried Fiber Art Exhibition
Entangled is the first ever exhibition of contemporary fiber arts to be held at East End Arts Council gallery in Riverhead, Long Island, with an open call to artists nationwide. Artists whose practice creatively engages traditional or unconventional approaches are encouraged to submit proposals for a juried selection.
Works may be free-standing, suspended, or wall supported for exhibition in our Arts District storefront gallery space, featuring ceilings just shy of 10’. Entangled hopes for a multi-idiom, boundary-pushing fiber art exhibition of abstract, figurative, and conceptual works that cross into a multitude of references. This show will pull visitors into a fierce tangle of connections that unravel the imagination!
Artists may enter up to three original works new to the local public for selection.
