Artist Call for Entries: "Art with a Story" Artwork Network Colorado

Entries due: October 24th, 2010



(from the press release)

(Denver) We often encounter artwork that makes us stop and wonder — what does this mean? What was the artist thinking, what were they feeling? With some art it’s obvious what the motivations were, but with others, the viewer is only left to guess. With Artwork Network’s 2010 Online Juried Show, “Art with a Story”, we want artists to let us in on the secret.

Whether in writing or verbally via a short video, artists can give the public some insight into the layers of the visual mystery they’ve created. We don’t care what it’s about: personal insight, the neighbor’s dog, the future of the world; all stories and all artistic mediums will be accepted. The show will be presented solely online, and voted on by both a selected jury and the public. Each piece will be judged by the digital representation provided. Submissions are now being accepted at www.artworknetwork.com/juriedshow.

Important dates:
  • Entries due: October 24th, 2010
  • Public Voting period: November 4th – 24th, 2010
  • Notification of winners: November 25th – 30th, 2010
  • Winners Announced: December 2nd, 2010
  • Showcase: January 7th – Feb 2nd, 2011
Selected Jury members include Sandra Renteria (artist and humanitarian), Allen McLain (Senior Executive Producer at Sky Theory Video Production), and Jessica Bradley (Creative Director at Artwork Network). Additional Jury members to be determined. Two sets of prizes will be awarded, based on jury vote and public vote, in the following categories: Best Artwork, Best Story, Best Story/Artwork Combined. Prizes include a free one year Basic Level membership with Artwork Network, gift certificates, and cash!
