"FANTASY" National Juried Exhibition 2024
DEADLINE: March 11th, 2024
THIS CALL IS NOW OPEN
Go here to apply
(Note that the theme for our Spring 2024 exhibition has been changed from Shadows to Fantasy.)
DESCRIPTION:
“Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope.”
- Dr. Seuss
Fantasy can be described as a free play of creative imagination, a forming of mental images, wondrous or strange. Fantasy is vital for the human mind. It begins as the psychological process by which a child learns to fill the gaps between knowledge, reality and experience, and becomes a vital adult coping mechanism. Psychoanalysis and counseling have their place, but the most important tool we as humans have to tackle reality, is the creation of fantasies.
Arc Gallery wants to know your interpretation of “fantasy.” You can draw from science fiction, folklore or mythology to create imaginative worlds. You can imagine a utopian world or create heroes, superheroes, and creatures that only exist in your imagination. Works can excite pleasurable senses or explore dark fantasies and obsessions. Works can contain magical or supernatural elements. Share your fantasy with us.
JUROR: Philip Bewley, Philip Bewley Art Advisory, San Francisco, CA
