Call For Entry: Still Life: The Art of Arrangement

Type: Exhibition Opportunities [View all]
Posted by: The Kiernan Gallery
Deadline: 08/20/12

From Dutch masters’ paintings to contemporary photography, the still life has played an important role in art history. This genre grants artists complete control over their subjects, allowing unparalleled ability to select details and manipulate the scene.

Still lifes often employ symbolism, where the objects assume their own character and identity. An entire story can be told with the arrangement of a few items; toys, dolls, and household goods become surrogates, and natural life is given a persona. For Still Life: The Art of Arrangement, The Kiernan Gallery seeks evocative and symbolic still life photographs.

For the exhibition, juror Jason Landry will select up to 30 images for display in the main gallery, and up to an additional 40 to be included in the online gallery. All images will be reproduced in an exhibition catalogue available for purchase. A Juror's Choice and Director's Choice will be announced. All photographic media are encouraged.
