EXHIBITION OPPORTUNITIES:
(New) The Body - NYDeadline: January 30, 2019. March 15, 2019 – April 13, 2019. This is an open call to artists for an exhibition at Site:Brooklyn Gallery. The human body has inspired artists throughout the ages – it was often used to explore myth and allegory, signify beauty, sexuality, or life itself. The twentieth and twenty-first centuries saw a significant expansion of the importance of the body in art. Bodily representation still acts as a repository for beauty, nature, or religious ideas, but it has also taken on new roles. They bear and sometimes thwart identity, are sites of political and social struggle, and are fragmented or unseen. ELIGIBILITY: This is a juried exhibition for artists working in drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, wall mounted sculpture, collage, and video. This exhibition is open to all artists 18 years of age or older. SUBMISSIONS AND FEES: Only original works may be submitted. The fee is $35.00 for up to three (3) images, $10 for each additional image. If adding additional images please do so prior to check out. All entries must be registered/received by January 30, 2019 11:59 PM MT. All entry fees are non-refundable. DIRECTIONS FOR ONLINE SUBMISSION: https://bit.ly/2GnHq3q

(New) "His-ter'-ee-uh" Call for Entries-Juried Exhibition in Mar. 2019 – IL
Deadline: January 19, 2019. New exhibit at ARC Gallery and Educational Foundation, Chicago, March 2019, juried by artist Olive Stefanski. (deadline for applications—Jan. 19th, 11:55 pm) For prospectus and application form: https://arcgallery.wufoo.com/forms/ahistereeuha/ With this exhibition, we are calling for art that addresses structural sexism—in particular, women’s emotional realities, and how that emotional reality plays out in a national atmosphere of distrust about women’s stories, women’s rationality and women’s anger. His-ter’-ee-uh: from the Greek word “hystera”, or womb—an organ that was thought to migrate erratically through a woman’s abdomen, searching for “fragrant smells”, much like “an animal within an animal”. Today, in the inevitable backlash to the “MeToo” moment, women once again are distrusted, disdained (and sometimes diagnosed) for an emotionality that threatens the status quo. Women’s bodies continue to be the ground around which much of the conflict revolves. Strangely enough (as we saw in recent Supreme Court hearings) some of the hysteria around these events now seems to also emanate from men, which suggests the need for a new metaphor to explain the cause of women’s rage.

(New) Flyover Country - Group Photography Exhibition - KS
Deadline: January 15, 2019. The Midwest Center for Photography in Wichita, Kansas seeks entries for a juried photography exhibition, February 22 - March 15, 2019.

In this exhibition we are looking to identify photographs with an aesthetic that emerges from the land and culture of the center of America through portraits, documentary approaches, and images of place. At a time when urban and rural parts of the United States are becoming more divided, having an avenue for conversation and mutual appreciation through visual narrative is key.

Transcendence - DC
Deadline: January 3, 2019. Gender is a construct.

Yet, what happens when we collectively begin to question this; what happens when we reject this? Shedding the husk of gender, Transcendence seeks work that imagines a world free from the burden of reality and absent of the weight of the past and present; how would identity manifest in the future? How could it look on another cosmic planet or in some fantastic alternate universe; what are the transformations that can occur when we are allowed boundless space?

Call for Content: Appalachian Futures - WV
Deadline: January 31, 2019. WVU Libraries is developing an interdisciplinary exhibit for 2019-20 themed around Appalachian Futures. Content is sought from scholars, artists and practitioners from a range of fields to integrate into a curated exhibition that will be interpreted, designed, and installed next spring/summer, and potentially travel throughout the state. This collaborative, multidisciplinary exhibit and programming will address the dominant contemporary narratives about Appalachia in a new way— how the people of Appalachia have worked and will work to rewrite their own narrative and transcend limiting definitions of what it means to be Appalachian. The creatively designed, accessible and interactive exhibit will synthesize humanities research, art, and civic action inviting viewers to explore the often overlooked communities of Indigenous Appalachia, "Affrilachian" (African American in Appalachia), and queer Appalachia. It will also ask viewers to examine Appalachian tradition and culture; the intersections between extraction industries, new technology, and science; literacies and education in Appalachia; as well as speculative futures for the region. The exhibit will use scholarship and creations to tell stories about the broader ideas and relationships amongst the various Appalachian identities, past present and into the future.

“Sanctuary” National Juried Exhibition 2019 - at Arc Gallery - CA
Deadline: March 18, 2019. DESCRIPTION: The word “Sanctuary” has recently been associated with individual and municipality resistance to the Federal enforcement of immigration laws. “Sanctuary” itself has a wide range of definitions: a place offering shelter, a sacred or consecrated place, a container of holy things, a refuge for humans or wildlife, and a place offering immunity from law. We are seeking works that broadly define “Sanctuary.” Works that convey political activism, faith and religion, wildlife protections, and a place of refuge, peace and safety are welcome, as well as abstract works that express the meaning of “Sanctuary.” CATEGORIES ACCEPTED: Sculpture, painting, drawing, photo, printmaking, ceramics, assemblage, collage, mixed media, fiber art, glass art, artist book. VENUE: Arc Gallery, 1246 Folsom St, San Francisco 94103. JUROR’S AWARD: A Juror’s Award ribbon, certificate, catalog and $250 will be presented to each of the three works that express the most imaginative interpretation of the theme.
