Still Point Gallery Call for Submissions

Geometric Abstraction

Still Point Art Gallery invites submissions from emerging and established artists for its upcoming exhibition: Geometric Abstraction

Geometry – squares, triangles, circles, ellipses, cones, cubes, and polygons … length, area, and volume. Geometry frames our world and shapes our world. It brings order, organization, balance, symmetry, and asymmetry to our surroundings. Geometry is used by carpenters and astronomers as well as theoretical mathematicians. The concept of geometry is so simple and appealing that even young children seem to intuitively draw squares and circles and rectangles. Yet the concept of geometry is so complex that mathematicians and physicists may spend years studying applications and theories of one tiny aspect of geometry. Then there is the artist. When an artist’s unique view .. of the world, of the self … incorporates geometric shapes or focuses on natural or man-made geometric shapes, the result may be an amazing display of shape and color. Geometric abstraction can be daring, imposing, powerful, stark, complex, bold, or rhythmic.

Dates and Deadlines

November 15, 2009 – Submissions Open

January 25, 2010 – Submissions Close (Deadline)

February 8, 2010 – Notification of Selection
