I am very excited to announce an upcoming show:
50 States, 50 Artists, 50 Mediums
One artist or designer from each state in the USA will represent a different medium, bridging the gap between the traditional fine art world and other arts disciplines, including craft, design, architecture, performance art, etc. I am interested in these intersections and how they translate into everyday life. This show will not only represent the importance of all art disciplines, but will also stress the importance of all working artists regardless of their location.
Call For Artists:
Open to all professional artists living or working in the United States. Open to any and all mediums in the art, craft, and design communities. See below for examples of accepted mediums.
How to submit: Send a short biography (including your address & e-mail), artist statement, a few words about why you want to be in this show, 10-20 images & information (including medium, dimensions, & price), and any links to your work on line to sarah@theeclipsegallery.com. Important: You must write “Submission for 50 Show” in the subject line of the e-mail or I will think it is spam. Attachments are fine. E-mail submissions are preferred.

What an original exhibition criteria. I've had a chance to look at your posts on the progress of the gallery-looks impressive. The thoughts on Craftivism are well timed and I am grateful for all the links you provide.
Thanks Bill! I appreciate your thoughts and glad you are exploring the links :)
As an NC artist the possibility of having work in a uniquely concepted show, intrigues me. As a painter of watercolors, pastels and acrylics, and a sculptor and fused glass jeweler, I'm hoping there is a spot there. NC has lots of great artists so who knows! You will have a wealth of art to choose from! Congratulations on the gallery!
Thank you for your interest--make sure to send me an e-mail!
