Black and/or White

Organization: Tall Grass Arts Association Location Park Forest, IL Entry Fee Paid Entry Deadline January 7, 2022 Exhibition Mar 12 - Apr 16, 2022
Artists are invited to submit entries for
BLACK AND/OR WHITE,
an upcoming exhibit at Tall Grass Gallery.

Black and White images can convey great delicacy and subtlety,
mystery and quiet, but also command attention through
bold contrasts, dramatic emphasis, and powerful forms.
Since they often remove us from reality with their lack of color,
black and white images can suggest an alternate time or space,
one where details are paid more attention or distance can be transcended, and situations can be transformed.
So the world in black and white often takes on
a sense of magic realism.

Deadline to Enter is: FRIDAY, JANUARY 7, 2022

> All images must be completed in black, white, or black and white
media, and can include the entire range of grey tones between
