The Figure

The Figure is an online juried exhibition open to all artists 18 years of age or older working in all media. The exhibition runs May 31 – June 28, 2022.

The figure has been, from humankind's earliest attempts at mark-making to the present day, a central occupation of art. The figure commands our attention because it is something most of us see every day, whether looking at ourselves or others, but is at the same time deeply strange, beautiful, and intriguing. Our figures are an index of time and mark our movement through space. The capturing of the figure admits an almost infinite variety of methods, styles and movements; it can be representational or abstract, suggested by a pencil-stroke or carved in stone.

Entry fee is $26.00 for up to three images, with a $10 fee for each additional image. Submissions must include 3–6 images and may include 0–3 videos. Only original works may be submitted. All artwork must be priced for sale and remain available for sale during the exhibition. Artists will retain a 60% commission on all exhibition sales. Notification of acceptance will be sent May 11, 2022. Once accepted, artists must upload high-resolution photo files of their work. All entry fees are non-refundable.
