CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: SPLASH OF RED
Five Deuces Galleria is seeking submissions for our upcoming 6-WEEKS LONG guest art exhibition, "Splash of Red."
Red, a color of passion, intensity, and emotion, has captivated artists for centuries. Whether it's the fiery glow of a sunset, the bold strokes of abstract expressionism, or the symbolic significance of red in cultural contexts, we want to see your unique perspective.
Join us in celebrating the power and allure of the color red. Let your creativity flow freely, and then capture the intensity, passion, and variety that the color red can bring to art.
Submission Guidelines:
Artists may submit up to 10 works for consideration.
The exhibition is open to any theme, allowing artists the freedom to express their creativity without limitations.
We welcome submissions in any medium, including but not limited to painting, mixed media, photography, sculpture, and more.
As one of the premier art galleries in the area, we are dedicated to promoting and celebrating the diverse talents of emerging and established artists. We look forward to hosting, promoting, exhibiting, and selling your work in this group show.
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Thursday, July 18, 2024 11:59pm
We are using CloudFolios to assist in curating the show. If you don’t already have an account, you can set one up (free) during the submission process.
ELIGIBILITY:
Open to all mediums of art by artists who can coordinate a local drop off & pick up of any unsold work.
All submissions must be original works of art created by the artist.
All work must be for sale.
All accepted artwork for the exhibit must be ready to hang.
Submitted and accepted artwork should be priced equivalent to what you would sell it for on your own. If an artwork sells during the exhibit the curators will work with you to replace it, thereby offering you additional sales opportunities.
SUBMIT YOUR WORK HERE: SUBMIT YOUR WORK. Please note, the images you submit with your work are 1) the primary tool the curators use to evaluate, accept, or reject a piece and 2) the same images the marketing team will use in promotional materials for accepted work throughout the duration of the exhibit, will be displayed in our online gallery, and will be included in our buyers guide. While the images do not have to be perfect by a hired professional, unsatisfactory images will affect the curating.
