Call to Artists: Art Exhibit at the Devonian Botanic Garden: Devon, AB
“Rooted: Perspectives on the Natural World” Canada Day, July 1, 2012
call to artists in any medium to share their visions of the natural world at the University of Alberta Devonian Botanic Garden in an outdoor art exhibit to be held on Canada Day, July 1, 2012. “Rooted: Perspectives on the Natural World”, is a juried show that will explore the artist’s relationship to nature. While it is anticipated that many submissions will focus on visual media, we welcome and encourage submissions in other forms. Show us how you love the world in paint, in textile, in photography, in mixed media, in word or with sound – or surprise us. Consideration will be given to artistic merit and quality work that represents unique, unusual and varied responses to the natural world. There is no table fee for participation in this exhibit. Artists are welcome to sell their work, but must have a method of receiving their own payments. Tents, tables and chairs are provided. Artists are responsible for their own displays and must be present at the Garden from 9 am until 5 pm on Canada Day. Artists are welcome to work en plein air during the event. Submit three sample works by email to: kerry.mulholland@ales.ualberta.cawith “Rooted” in the subject line. Call (780) 987-3054 ext. 2224 for information. Submission deadline May 28, 2012.
