On Edge 2024

On Edge is an annual juried exhibition of contemporary work by artists residing in Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region who are pushing the boundaries of material and concept. Edge Gallery has exhibited groundbreaking contemporary art for more than 30 years and has been instrumental in presenting important experimental work in the region.

All artists working in any media and residing in the Rocky Mountain region are invited to submit their work. This show is open to contemporary art of any medium, with an emphasis on work that challenges the margins of material, content, artistic process, and technology. The merits and definition of "contemporary" will be defined by the juror. Submissions should include 1-3 total images or media samples (up to 3 images, 3 videos, and/or 3 audio files). The entry fee is $35. The honorary juror is Jim Robischon, owner and director of Robischon Gallery in Denver.

Accepted artwork must be hand-delivered to Edge Gallery; shipped artwork cannot be accepted. All artwork must be ready to hang or install professionally with frames, mats, and wiring of professional quality. Maximum weight for 2D artwork is 70 lbs. For time-based media, artists must provide equipment to display the work (video monitors preferred). Artists will be notified the week of July 8, 2024. Artwork drop-off is July 28-29, 2024.
