DRAWN TO PAPER: Atlantic Gallery Juried Exhibition 2021

Poster: Sheet of paper, folded and torn at bottom, printed with purple ink, showing white lettering, "Drawn to Paper" and "Atlantic Gallery Juried Show 2021".

CALL FOR ART

Atlantic Gallery Juried Exhibition 2021
DRAWN TO PAPER
January 5 – 23, 2021
DEADLINE: DECEMBER 1, 2020

A juried Group Show with Grand Prize: a Solo Show at Atlantic Gallery in NYC’s Chelsea art district.

Beyond canvas, aluminum, linen, or wood, paper has a special resonance for everyone. It is what we used in school to create cards for our parents, or to create a masterpiece at age 7 when we were all artists. Now as professionals, paper offers a thousand possibilities. We can sketch, draw and paint, collage, sculpt, create books, wall hangings, and photographs or allow the paper to be the art. In this challenge we invite the artists to engage in a conversation with paper in whatever way they imagine. The paper is the thing! Some examples of paper (but materials are not limited to this list): cardboard, paper, rice paper, newsprint, construction paper, decoupage paper, card stock, recycled paper, kraft paper, deconstructed books, etc.
