Outlaws

The Lexington Art League is seeking submissions for Outlaws, an exhibition curated by Po' Boy Art Collective which aims to explore themes of "Outlaws" in historical, pop culture, modern, and conceptual ideas. Outlaws by all accounts are people who live outside of the law. The duality of the word works on many levels, wavering between good and evil and finding a balance between the two. Outlaws may be working for what is right while it may be considered against the law or outside social norms.

Eligibility is national and open to all artists regardless of location, media, or experience level. The entry fee is $20. Residents of Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Missouri, Illinois, and Ohio may use coupon code 'LocalArtist' to waive the submission fee. Artists may submit up to six works of art for consideration. Each work may be considered separately, unless otherwise noted by the artist that works must be shown as a complete collection. Submissions should include images at 300DPI/PPI, an image list with size, title, media, and date, artist statement, bio, and resume. Audio and video files should be sent as embedded .html links.

Artists are required to deliver artwork to the Lexington Art League, 209 Castlewood Drive, Lexington, KY, 40505, by 5pm on March 12th, 2018. Artists picking up their artwork may do so between 5/3/18 - 5/5/18 from 10am to 4pm. If art is shipped to the gallery, the artist is responsible for shipping costs to the gallery; return shipping will be paid by the Lexington Art League. All accepted work must be ready to hang or display, and artists must provide written installation instructions for any artworks requiring special handling or installation methods. Artists may choose to make their work available for sale; all sales will be managed by the Lexington Art League for a 30% commission of the sale price. Contact [email protected] with any questions.
