About This Call
The Town of Taos and Taos Arts Council are seeking Taos County artists' artwork for a lamppost banner campaign to highlight Taos as an arts destination, celebrate the community's diversity and creativity, and beautify the Historic District. Banners will be displayed within the Town of Taos from approximately late spring through early fall.
Artists must be at least 18 years old and currently living and working within Taos County. Work must have been produced within the last 5 years and cannot be a duplicate of a winning entry from a prior Banner competition. Each individual or artist representative may enter one piece with one image; groups may enter one collectively created piece under a collective name. The competition welcomes diverse and inclusive images from any artistic discipline or medium that can be photographed and displayed visually on a banner, including painting, pottery, sculpture, printmaking, photography, projection and installation, glass, jewelry, metalwork, fiber art, performing arts, and non-traditional media.
Entry fee is $35 ($33 for banner project expenses and $2 for replacement banner fund). Submissions must be made through the CaFE website. Applicants must submit one JPG/JPEG image under 5mb for the competition entry. Selected winners will need to submit a second high-resolution image (PSD, TIFF, JPG, or PNG format, at least 200 dpi) to the Taos Arts Council for printing. Selections will be made by blind jury process within approximately 3-5 days after the February 5, 2024 deadline, with winners notified within 1-3 days. Jury considerations include aesthetic impact, diversity of medium and artist background, suitability for the medium, appropriateness for public display, and legibility for viewers. Selected artists will be featured on one of 41 large (30" x 60") or 25 small (18" x 30") lamppost banners displayed throughout the Town of Taos. Winners will receive their banner after deinstallation and can pick it up at a location and date to be determined.
