We were intrigued by the thought provoking submissions and the various takes on the theme. Artists hailed from Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, India, Israel, Lithuania, Malaysia, Mexico, Panama, Portugal, the Russian Federation, Taiwan, United Kingdom, and the United States.
We are always looking for artists whose work we wish to promote and support.
As we consider work for inclusion in CollexArt, we are interested in the idea and concepts behind your work and its execution. Factors such as prior accomplishments, education, the creation date of the work are not relevant in our selection process.
What inspires our curiosity may be unique to us, and therefore, not being selected should not be seen as anything other than not a match for our current selection criteria and mix of reviewers.
The term boundaries can encompass many subjects and be used in a variety of contexts. CollexArt seeks artwork that addresses the theme from an artist’s point of view. Artists are asked to submit work that emphasizes different visual, psychological, geographical or any other aspects related to the concept of a boundary that is evident in your work.
Artists who wish to be considered for our online exhibit space are encouraged to submit images that are part of the same body of work.
One artist will be awarded the Purchase Award at the conclusion of this call and entered as a finalist for the Annual Grand Prize. Submitting artists (including the Purchase Award Winner) may also be invited to have their own in-depth Artist Profile Page, have their work included in the CollexArt Store and in the curated Online Exhibit Space. Artists who get featured by CollexArt in this manner are entered as finalists for the Annual Grand Prize.
1. Purchase Award - Artists are invited to enter artwork for consideration for the Purchase Award.
