Timely and Original

ISOLATION (Deadline for Entry: February 15, 2012)

Category: Uncategorized

Whether it be self-induced or otherwise, there is a rampant amount of isolation associated with the beginning of the 21st century.  The media, computers, etc. all point to the individual being lost and absorbed into a larger whole, while becoming isolated emotionally,. physically and intellectually from his or her fellow citizens.  Ethnocentricity isolates entire cultures.  Family members are estranged from one another, each dwelling in his or her own cyber sphere.  The media dictates the desireable and the individual is isolated from his or her true self.   We are searching for the visual reflection of isolation and its effects on the individual as well as the greater society.

Participating artists will be selected by the Caladan Gallery staff, with one or more artists being awarded a solo exhibition. Artists working in painting, sculpture, drawing, printmaking, photography, digital media, textiles, mixed media, and installation are eligible. Video cannot be accommodated at this time. Caladan Gallery presents timely and relevant virtual exhibitions that are unique in concept and presentation. The exhibitions are very carefully juried and considered, each accepted artist tending to work within the parameters of a concept. We also have affordable membership opportunities. We are artist-friendly, keeping our fees and commissions as low as possible, doing extensive listings and fresh press releases monthly. We are averaging over 55,000 UNIQUE visitors each month and many artists have found expansive opportunities as a result of their exposure on the Gallery Site. We have been online since October of 2003, and have been extremely fortunate to create an exciting, diverse, and active meeting place for artists and viewers alike, creating a warm and positive virtual atmosphere.

This exhibition will be a survey of our fellow citizens on the planet Earth:  Animals!  We present these creatures with love and honor.  As they bless our lives with diversity, we realize that each animal represents an aspect of our own humanity:  an otter, innocence and joy; a leopard, stealth, independence and aspiration; a parrot, an ability to find the irony in experience.  We are searching for uplifting, innovative works representing animals; those that find a way to provide witness to ourselves.

Participating artists will be selected by the Caladan Gallery staff, with one or more artists being awarded a solo exhibition.
