Artist Opportunity: Fluctuations Print Exchange, Deadline July 19th

Submissions are now open for the first Recession Art Print Exchange, Fluctuations—the theme of the print exchange will be the very idea of exchanging; fluctuations between giving and receiving.

19 artists will be selected to participate in creating original prints in an edition size of 21. Each participant will receive their own complete portfolio of this exchange, and the additional prints will be on view during a reception that will be held on September 27th 2013.

In each artist’s submission, submit a clear proposal of the print including images (sketches, collages, photos) of the proposed work or images of previous work if necessary.

All prints must conform to the dimensions of 11″ x 14″ (approximately 1/4 of a standard sheet of industry printmaking paper).

All printmaking processes will be considered for this print exchange, though digital prints must also contain one or more hand-pulled elements in the final artwork. We encourage innovative, mixed media approaches to printmaking.

The print exchange is open to artists living within the United States and overseas. Portfolios can be sent by mail to each recipient or can be picked up at our location in Brooklyn. Each artist is responsible for the cost of shipping.

Deadline for submission : July 19th, 11:59 pm

Prints must be delivered to 47 Bergen St, Brooklyn NY by September 20th, 7:00 pm

Reception at 47 Bergen St: September 27th, 7:00-9:00 pm

Open Call For Recession Art’s Color War

‘Color War’ curated by the Recession Art staff, is now open for submissions.

Deadline Sunday June 9, 11:59pm

To lighten and brighten up the festive season of summer, Recession Art will mount the exhibition ‘Color War,’ a show to celebrate the joy and possibility of color in art. They’re putting a challenge to artists to show them the most rich, vivid, and vibrant artwork possible, looking for works that bring the summer sun into the gallery and forcing viewers to keep sunglasses on indoors.

This exhibition will be limited to flat work, with a maximum dimension of 24 x 24 inches and preferably smaller. All submitted works must be ready to hang on the wall, with a focus on works on paper, canvas, or wood. All works must be available for sale and be less than $500. Submit here.

Submit to the Recession Art Show

Open Call For Recession Art’s Facts And Fictions Submissions are open for Facts and Fictions, our Spring 2013 show at Recession Art and the Invisible Dog.Deadline Monday March 11, 11:59pm

Facts and Fictions, curated by co-founder and Art Director, Ani Katz, will present works that explore themes of fiction, narrative, storytelling, and the tension between what is true and what is real.

In a photograph, your friend is no longer your friend; he is a pattern of light and shadow and geometry on a piece of paper or a screen, and nothing about him exists beyond the discrete parcel of time in which you made the exposure. There is a fiction in every photograph. However, just because something isn’t true doesn’t mean it can’t be real. One can see and believe in ways that have nothing to do with truth.

Facts and Fictions welcomes work in all media and a variety of presentations, with a particular focus on photographic and lens-based work, artist books, and other narrative media.
