You are encouraged to send in your proposal according to the protocols listed below - or your submission may not be reviewed. You are welcome to submit to more than one show - but please do so in separate emails. This is important due to the number of submissions we receive and in the difficulty of keeping track of each one.

• Proposals for each submission should be in the form of a link to an html site OR as attached jpgs (please send up to 8 images of a small size - no high resolutions Tiffs, etc. please, 700 pixel height maximum.)

• With each separate submission include a one paragraph statement of your proposal for the show as well as a one paragraph biography. All text should be typed directly into the main body of the e-mail and not attached as a separate file.

• Although it is extra work for us - we will still accept CD's and slides if it is not possible for you to send images electronically. Please send mail or drop off submissions in a separate envelope for each show and with a self -addressed stamped envelope if you want them returned.

(if it moves we want it!) fine art for the wall as well as sculpture with one leitmotif – it has to be kinetic and move in some way.

(art that is about phenomena in some way) Climatical, astronomical, geological, etc. – unusual and bizarre events that strike us dumb whenever we are privileged to see or feel it.

(The Mothers and Fathers Show) From Medea to Madonna, mothers (and fathers) come in all sorts. Love them or hate them, we all have them, lets see what we make of them.

Pop Art for 2010 - new works based on this old style) - Pop art is an art movement of the twentieth century. Characterized by themes and techniques drawn from popular mass culture, such as advertising, comic books and mundane cultural objects, pop art is widely interpreted as a reaction to the then-dominant ideas of abstract expressionism, as well as an expansion upon them. Pop art, aimed to employ images of popular as opposed to elitist culture in art, emphasizing the banal or kitschy elements of any given culture, most often through the use of irony. It is also associated with the artists' use of mechanical means of reproduction or rendering techniques. (Wikipedia)
