Call for Art






The Anne Frank Center, USA and the Jewish Art Salon are proud to co-host three solo exhibits at the Center in 2014. 

Themes: 
Small-scale 2-dimensional works about the dangers of intolerance, anti-semitism, racism or discrimination.
        
For instance: upcoming exhibits include a photo series of Cuban Jews in present-day Havana, a photo series of the Roma and Sinti in 1940-45; and calligraphy paintings inspired by the French Jewish children killed in WWII. We are not looking for art that graphically depicts the Holocaust. The work does not have to be Jewish-themed either. 

Location: 
Anne Frank Center, USA, 44 Park Place, New York, NY 10007

Submission Deadline May 27, 2013

Invitation to Collaborate


Conceptual Artist Elanit Kayne invites you to collaborate on her current project
http://todayidumpedthebodies.blogspot.com/

The title for the project came from "bodies of artwork". The About This Project and How To page detail the concept further. 

To be featured, a work of art from your body of artwork is sent to a guest blogger (or blogger of your choice) to be dumped. A “body of artwork” is an original work of art that is simply being stored. The artist is willing to gift it free of charge to an unknown finder. The location where it is left or “dumped” is chosen by the guest blogger. The featured artists bio and links to their work are at the end of every post.

You can also be featured simply as a guest blogger: receiving a work of art and stickers in the mail, choosing a space to leave the art, documenting where the art is left with photography. The content of the post is at the discretion of the guest blogger. More info on Elanit Kayne here. Email her here.
 



Call for Blog Posts


Jewish Art Education invites contemporary Jewish artists to write short (about 500 words) blog posts for its J Art Blog (http://jarted.org/EasyBlog/Latest.html). 
The contributions should focus on how their Jewish experience influences their art. If an artist prefers, JAE can interview the artist and write an article that can be reviewed for approval prior to posting. Photos of artworks are encouraged. Please send the blog posts to Robert Barkin, Executive Director, Jewish Art Education at rbarkin@jarted.org.

Call for images for online journal


Zeek: A Jewish Journal of Thought and Culture is hosting an open call to put together art together for upcoming issues. If you'd like them to consider your art, see info here.


IndieWalls.com is helping artists who are looking for non-gallery public exposure connect with local venues (upscale cafes, restaurants, bookstores, and other retail venues) who want to display their art for sale on their walls. Artists create profile pages, which the venues can browse through (eliminating the need to lug their portfolios all over town.) IndieWalls.com also includes a secure and easy online payment system through which buyers can easily purchase the art they see for sale in these public venues. It's a new and exciting way for emerging artists to start hanging their works in public venues (through a safe and easy system). Artist application is very simple - www.indiewalls.com
