FIGURES

FIGURES is an online exhibition celebrating the figure in art. The theme explores how the figure offers insight into human emotions, identity construction, and what it means to be human. Artists are invited to show figures through their perspective.

The exhibition is open to artists worldwide, both amateur and professional, working in all fine art mediums including oil, acrylic, watermedia, pastel, drawing, printmaking, mixed media, photography, sculpture, fiber, wood, and digital art (film/video excluded). Work that is copied or done under the guidance of an instructor is not eligible. Artists may submit 1-20 images. Entry fee is $25 for the first entry and $10 for each additional entry. For 3D work, there is no need to pay for additional entries for detail shots; additional views may be sent by email to [email protected]. All images must be in JPEG format, 1,200 pixels or greater on the longest side, with a maximum file size of 5 MB.

All accepted pieces will be displayed in the online gallery at www.art-fluent.com. Awards include Best of Show ($750) and two Director's Choice awards ($250 each). The exhibition is curated and juried by Creative Director Amy Matteson Neill along with an anonymous committee of jurors. Notification of acceptance will be sent by email on February 4, 2022. Artists receive 100% of sales. A portion of entry fee proceeds is donated to organizations committed to the arts and supporting artists. Cash awards over $600 are subject to federal income tax withholding; winners must submit a W-9 form.
