2025 Kinetic Biennial Boynton Beach - Indoor Exhibition

BoyntonArts, the City of Boynton Beach Public Art Program, seeks artists to apply to exhibit their indoor artwork for the 7th Biennial Kinetic in Boynton Beach, Florida. The exhibition provides the opportunity to present, sell and share explorations in kinetic art over a two-day weekend. The Biennial seeks works of visual, conceptual, participatory or experiential art where real motion, the illusion of motion or the feeling of motion are an essential attribute of the aesthetic content of the artwork. Artworks are for sale if requested by the artist. Artists may apply for multiple opportunities including Indoor and/or Outdoor exhibitions or installations and community engagement.

The 7th Kinetic Biennial takes place February 1-2, 2025 and includes indoor art exhibitions, artist and designer talks, student displays, turbine demonstrations, light projections and choreographed motion performances with community volunteers. The exhibition is held on the second floor of the historic Boynton Beach Arts & Cultural Center. Each artist can display between one and eight artworks with a maximum of 15 linear feet of wall space and 64 square feet of floor space. Electric is provided to artworks requiring power. Artwork is insured by the City of Boynton Beach for the artist's sale price or cost of restoration for damage or theft.

Eligibility requires artists to be experienced professionals at least 18 years old producing exceptional visual kinetic artwork suitable for all age groups. Submit a PDF cover letter with artist statement and contact information, resume, and up to 10 images of available artworks (minimum 3 images required). Up to 3 videos are optional. Each selected artist receives a $100 honorarium, and artists keep the full value of all sales with no percentage taken by BoyntonArts except for credit card processing fees if requested. Artists are not required to attend but BoyntonArts prefers participation. Entry deadline: September 15, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. MDT. Contact: [email protected]
