“Flora & Fauna” 2017 National Juried Exhibition - at Arc Gallery
DEADLINE: April 24th, 2017
“Flora & Fauna” National Juried Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:
What plants or animals inhabit your Earthly Paradise? Are they life forms native to where you live or exotic flora and fauna from far reaches of the planet? Would you bring back extinct species, import life forms from other galaxies, or create phantasmagorical plants and animals from your imagination? Where do humans fit into your paradise? We welcome artists whose concerns are ecology-based as well as those whose subject matter is traditionally flora, fauna or landscapes. You are invited to display your technical prowess in realism, abstraction or fantasy. We are seeking wide-ranging interpretations that will transform our gallery into a virtual Shangri-La.
CATEGORIES ACCEPTED
Sculpture, painting, drawing, photo, printmaking, ceramics, assemblage, collage, mixed media, fiber art, glass art, artist book
VENUE
Arc Gallery, 1246 Folsom St, San Francisco 94103
