The Northampton
Arts Council enthusiastically invites submissions for their 2015 Biennial Exhibition, to be held at Forbes Library’s Hosmer Gallery
from October 2 through October 30 2015.
The Arts Council Biennial is a
juried art show with free entry open to artists from Hampden, Hampshire,
Franklin, and Berkshire counties. This year’s theme, Motion-Emotion, can
be interpreted freely, and all two and three-dimensional art in any style, as
well as video and performance art will be considered. The Arts Council
encourages submissions of large three-dimensional and performance
weather-tolerant art for the outdoor exhibition space on the Forbes Library
lawn.
Deadline for submissions is August 1, 2015.
The Arts Council
is proud to announce a well-rounded panel of jurors that will allow artist
participants to have their work viewed by a representative from an academic
institution, a local gallery, and a local museum. The 2015 Biennial jurors will
be Aprile Gallant, Curator of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs at the Smith College Museum of Art, Paul Gulla, Gallery Manager for R. Michelson Galleries,
and Julia Courtney, Curator of Art at the D’Amour Museum of Fine Arts.
The Biennial is
an event that brings artists and art lovers together in the spirit of the Arts
Council’s mission to support and nurture the arts in Northampton.
