Artist Call for Entries: "Art with a Story"
Artwork Network
Entries due: October 24th, 2010
(from the press release)
(Denver) We often encounter artwork that makes us stop and wonder — what does this mean? What was the artist thinking, what were they feeling? With some art it’s obvious what the motivations were, but with others, the viewer is only left to guess. With Artwork Network’s 2010 Online Juried Show, “Art with a Story”, we want artists to let us in on the secret.
Whether in writing or verbally via a short video, artists can give the public some insight into the layers of the visual mystery they’ve created. We don’t care what it’s about: personal insight, the neighbor’s dog, the future of the world; all stories and all artistic mediums will be accepted. The show will be presented solely online, and voted on by both a selected jury and the public. Each piece will be judged by the digital representation provided. Submissions are now being accepted at www.artworknetwork.com/juriedshow.
Important dates:
- Entries due: October 24th, 2010
- Public Voting period: November 4th – 24th, 2010
- Notification of winners: November 25th – 30th, 2010
- Winners Announced: December 2nd, 2010
- Showcase: January 7th – Feb 2nd, 2011
Selected Jury members include Sandra Renteria (artist and humanitarian), Allen McLain (Senior Executive Producer at Sky Theory Video Production), and Jessica Bradley (Creative Director at Artwork Network). Additional Jury members to be determined. Two sets of prizes will be awarded, based on jury vote and public vote, in the following categories: Best Artwork, Best Story, Best Story/Artwork Combined. Prizes include a free one year Basic Level membership with Artwork Network, gift certificates, and cash! All winners will have their winning pieces showcased in the Artwork Network Showroom during the month of January 2011, and will be viewed by thousands of visitors during the popular First Friday Artwalk.
Complete details (including information about voting, prizes, and entry fees) can be found on our website at http://www.artworknetwork.com/juriedshow.

Call for Entries: Juried Show
Digital Nature: An Evening of Multimedia Arts
Denver Botanic Gardens
- Entries due by Friday July 30th
 The conservatory at the Denver Botanic Gardens
(from the press release)
Denver Botanic Gardens announces a call to artists for Digital Nature. Selected artists will present their work on Thursday, September 23 at a unique evening event at the Gardens. Digital Nature examines the relationship of the digital arts to the aesthetics and processes of nature, this year represented by the forms, styles, and themes found in Henry Moore’s work. Convex surfaces and concave interiors play against the texture and scale of the natural world in this year’s exhibit “Moore in the Gardens” – a truly significant presentation of works by acclaimed 20th century British sculptor, Henry Moore (1898-1986). Moore was primarily inspired by the human figure, and incorporated influences from African, pre-Columbian and Oceanic cultural traditions. Moore also drew from a library of natural forms: bones, pebbles, shells and the like that informed the abstracted and amorphic qualities in his work.
Artists and musicians using primarily digital media are encouraged to apply. Installations, musical and/or video performances, and interactives are highly desirable. The event will be widely promoted through the Gardens’ website and press releases, as well as through other non-traditional avenues. Proposals for future work will be accepted, but must be accompanied by samples of past work. Submit work by emailing a link to your work available online, or send a CD or DVD via mail (these will not be returned). MP3 and AVI formats preferred for music and video. Deadline: Friday, July 30, 2010. Jury will select and notify winners by Friday, August 13, 2010. For detailed submission guidelines, contact Rachel Murray, Denver Botanic Gardens, 909 York St. Denver, CO 80206
