In celebration of Earth Day's 40th's anniversary, Tampa's Museum of
Science
and Industry will feature the first national juried art exhibition,
EarthVisions.
The call for
artists to be featured in
MOSI's Arc Gallery
is currently underway. The deadline for submission is April 19.
The
concept of
EarthVisions is
said to include: "A vivid mental image produced by the imagination;
foresight, future goals or aspirations; a person or thing of
extraordinary beauty." Presented artworks should explore any of the
aforementioned concepts in relation to
Earth Day. The exhibit
will
feature all forms of art including painting, sculpture, photography,
installation and video art.
Curators for the exhibit are Zarth
Bertsch, director of IMAX Dome Theatre, and Ofra Friedman, award-winning
sculptor.
The entry fee for artists is $25 for 2 images and $5
for each additional image. Student artists' fees are $20 for 2 images
and $5 for each additional image. Selected artists will have their work
featured in the
EarthVisions exhibit, which will run from April
30 to May 28.
