HMVC Gallery presents Connections

HMVC Gallery presents an online group show titled "Connections" running April 1-30, 2024. The exhibition explores artists' connections with their art practice and the importance of connection in translating their visions. The show welcomes artworks from all mediums of visual art, except AI-created art and video/film.

Artists may submit up to 20 artworks for consideration; one artwork from each selected artist will be included in the final group show. Submissions must include high-quality images, an artist bio, and an artist statement. Images must be submitted in JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, SVG, or WEBP format, with dimensions between 1200-2560 pixels on the longest side and file size under 2 MB. All entries will be judged by jurors Heini Mika and Vincent Chang.

Entry fee is $25 for the first submission and $10 for additional entries (non-refundable and does not guarantee acceptance). Digital entries must be received by March 27, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. EST. Notification of acceptance will be sent by email by March 31st. All participating artists will be featured on the HMVC Gallery website and virtual gallery, receive a certificate of participation, and have their work screened on a Times Square jumbotron billboard in April. Awards include: Best of Show ($150), Second Place ($100), and Third Place (online solo show at HMVC Gallery for one month plus solo certificate). By submitting, artists grant HMVC Gallery the right to use images for promotion on their website, social media, and online platforms, with full credit and copyright remaining with the artist.
