About This Call

Yeiser Art Center is accepting entries for the Fantastic Fibers 2018 international juried exhibition. This exhibition seeks to showcase a wide range of outstanding contemporary works related to the fiber medium. Contemporary and innovative works created with fiber as the primary medium or concept are welcome.

The exhibition is open to all artists 18 years and over working in the field of fiber art. All work submitted must be original, completed in the last three years, and not previously exhibited in a Fantastic Fibers exhibition. There are no size restrictions. Up to five entries per artist are permitted with an entry fee of $25 per piece. Each submission should consist of 1 single artwork represented by 1 to 3 images. All selected artworks will be featured in full color in a catalog produced by Yeiser Art Center for sale during the exhibition. Selected artists will have the opportunity to purchase a copy of the exhibition catalog at a discounted rate.

Fantastic Fibers 2018 will be on display at Yeiser Art Center from April 14 to June 9, 2018. Awards totaling $1,900 will be awarded: $1,000 Best of Show, $500 First Place, $250 Second Place, and $150 Third Place. Notification of acceptance is March 2, 2018. Work is due at Yeiser Art Center by April 6 at 5pm. The opening reception is April 14, 2018 from 5–7 p.m., with awards announced during the reception. Sales will be encouraged where works are offered for purchase, but work need not be for sale to enter. Yeiser Art Center will keep a 40% commission on all sales. Work will be insured for the duration of the exhibition for the value of the work, or 60% of the retail price. Artists are responsible for insuring their work during transit to and from the Yeiser. Work will be shipped back to artists by June 15. The juror is Arturo Alonzo Sandoval, a fiber artist whose work is in the collections of the New York City Museum of Modern Art's Architecture and Design Collection, as well as galleries and private collections throughout the United States and the world.
