Timely and Original

ETERNAL STRUCTURE (Deadline - August 25, 2008)

Category: Uncategorized

…The architecture of form, time, and space… It is in the act of building that we as humans have claimed our rights to evolution and the reach for the eternal…A building takes form in a similar manner as the natural world has been made by creation.  A building defies and embraces physics by virtue of its size and durability.  It stands but for a moment in the great scheme of things, as does a great tree, but in the focus of our lifetimes, it stands forever.  In addition, one gets the sense of building from other manifestations of structure, whether it be conceptual, examining the structure of an idea; or exploring the relationship between one natural form to another, or a natural form to a man-made one.  We are searching for visual verification of the anatomy of structure.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 has taken on a transformation itself, being recently redone, enhancing the clarity and ease of navigation; Contrast and illumination are accommodated beautifully in our enhanced site. 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 20,000 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.
