APPLY TO THIS CALL

Entry Deadline: 10/31/18

The Alexandria Museum of Art is curating an exhibit of work by contemporary artists working in themes of poverty and homelessness to partner with Sordid and Sacred: The Beggars in Rembrandt's Etchings, which will be on display concurrently. This exhibition will feature juried works by artists working in all media in the subjects of poverty and homelessness to bring the topic to the forefront and connect it with the etchings of artist Rembrandt van Rijn.  

This exhibition will be on display at the Alexandria Museum of Art from March 1st through June 22nd, 2019 alongside "Sordid & Sacred: The Beggars in Rembrandt's Etchings" Selections from the John Villarino Collection.  

Clemente?

Whoever did today's artwork for Google honoring the late great Roberto Clemente (one of my childhood heroes) blew it - this guy looks nothing like Clemente -- but it is the thought that counts... so thanks Google (and please don't let China push you around!)

Bhoomi

Anuradha Nehru's Kalanidhi Dance performed Bhoomi on Millennium Stage at the Kennedy Center on the 28th and the 29th September. She was honored to have the images of some of her Chakra and Kolam paintings incorporated into the video projection for the background. The drawing Transformations took a new life in one of the last scene.

This amazing artist was the main reason that I decided to go to art school...
