Timely and Original

PERSONALITY (Deadline - February 15, 2010)

Category: Uncategorized

 There are little bits and pieces of dynamic energy everywhere!  They are present in the faces of the denizens of this world!  Wherever we go, we exude ourselves, our personal mantras, our individual personalities.  The inner life registers on the face.  The eyes hold the key to our deepest thoughts.  A smile translates both good and evil.  Animals emit personality.  Plants emit personality.  Although we most often equate personality with human attributes, even a rock, a piece of plastic, a TV commercial, etc. can be said to harbor an innate form of persona.  There is “the cult of personality” as well.  We are searching for a visual feast, your representation of personality and expression.

 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 50,000 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.

Transmorphing - The Act of Change (Deadline 1/15/10)

Category: Uncategorized

The very nature of life suggests energy in constant flux; movement in an everylasting dance of cause and effect.  Nature presents unpredictability wrapped up in repeating cycles.  We are certain of elements that are attached to different aspects of our own life experiences, yet we are often unprepared for them.  It is this push and pull, the contrast between rest and movement, predictability and the unexpected, that preps the stage for transformation on either a collective or personal level.  We are searching for the visual representation of metamorphosis.  

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.
