Collage/Assemblage Online Exhibition

Site:Brooklyn is calling for works of collage or assemblage for an online juried exhibition running June 21 - July 21, 2024. This exhibition is open to all artists 18 years of age or older working in all media. Collage, like film, is simultaneously a verb and a noun, an action as well as a result. Its history as a technical innovation and artistic tool begins in China and moves through Japan to medieval Europe, but it is in the 20th century avant-garde that collage emerges as a self-conscious response to modernity. In combining aspects of painting and sculpture, the surface produced by painting and physicality of the sculpted (or found) object, collage became the new grammar in the language of modern art. Today, collage and assembly touches every aspect of our culture, from video montage to the construction of modern skyscrapers.

Submissions must include 3-9 images and up to 3 videos of original works only. Entry fee is $26.00 for three images, with an additional $10.00 for each additional image. All artwork must be priced for sale and available for sale during the exhibition. Artists will retain a 60% commission on all exhibition sales. The final submission deadline is May 20, 2024 at 11:59 PM MT. Notification of acceptance will be sent May 28, 2024.

The juror is Regine Basha, who has over 20 years of curatorial and consulting experience with exhibitions, special commissions and publicly-sited projects in the US and internationally. From 2016-2019 she was Director of Residencies at Pioneer Works and was Adjunct Professor at Columbia University MFA Sound dept from 2016-2021. For questions, contact [email protected].
