WCA San Diego's
On-line Gallery and Juried Shows
In today’s world an internet
presence is more important than ever, yet the technology for creating and
hosting a website still eludes many due to its complexity and cost. As an
artist, we know you want to concentrate on that which you do best – art.
To help our members Women’s Caucus
for Art San Diego (WCA SD) has launched an on-line gallery and exhibition
venue. It is our intention to provide a venue to present traditional and
non-traditional artwork for our members and to host juried exhibitions for all
artists.
In a refreshing departure from
traditional gallery operations, artists will not have to play the
who-knows-who, elitist game to be featured in this gallery. They will be
selected for their talent. Our online art gallery will be dedicated to helping
contemporary artists display their original art while making it easier for the
public to find them. Use the online gallery to search or browse for original
art, then contact the artists or their galleries. We simply highlight the
artists and their art. We provide a way to find art, artists, and galleries
and help artists promote their contemporary art.
This new on-line gallery is an
economical way for women artists to promote their work while participating in
WCA SD’s ever growing on-line presence! Artists can market their internet
presence as if it were a "stand-alone" web site.
In addition to being an on-line
gallery this new platform provides a venue for artists to participate in
juried and non-juried exhibitions.
Our
First On-line Juried Show
Going
Green - Summer 2010
The
exhibition objective is to present a collection of work that
uses organic, natural, sustainable. recycled materials,
non-toxic materials or digital methods. It is hoped
that the works will educate
the audience about environmental crises; art that informs
and interprets natural processes; art that reinvents or
reclaims natural found articles; and art that celebrates
our emotional and physical connection to the earth.
Ultimately, the juror seeks visually compelling creations
that educate, enlighten, and inspire stewardship of the
earth.
Mollie
Kellogg, local artist will be our juror. Mollie
studied art in Colorado starting her career in graphic
design and illustration. In 1992, she co-founded
Planet Earth Multi-Cultural Theatre and Gallery in Phoenix,
Arizona. In 2002, Mollie moved from Seattle,
Washington to San Diego, California where she is working
full-time as an artist.
The
juror will be looking for art that
incorporates natural processes; art that reinvents or
reclaims natural found articles; and art that celebrates
our emotional and physical connection to the earth.
Ultimately, she seeks visually compelling creations
that educate, enlighten, and inspire stewardship of the
earth.
All
media welcome.
