Call for Entries

The Yellow Wall Gallery, located in the Midtown Scholar Bookstore, is now
accepting submissions for the upcoming exhibit,
“Summer in Winter: A Visual Escape”, February 5 – March 26, 2010.

This exhibit will showcase a diverse range of imagery that evokes a desire
for an escape from the cold, dark and dull winter.
In the dead of winter, our minds start to wander to thoughts of warmer
and brighter days. We close our eyes and imagine the days when we
could bask in the hot sun and the nights we could drive on a moonlit
country road with all the windows down. We say to ourselves that we
would gladly welcome a sun-induced sweat over the chill of cold air on
our necks. Some are able to travel to a tropical getaway, but the majority
of us rely on our recollections and imagination to get us through the
bitter, cold months.

For this exhibition, please submit images or objects that evoke this
feeling of escape from winter. For example; beaches, lush green forests,
flowers, tropical scenery, warm colors, bright lights and so on. The goal
is to create a warm, summery space in the gallery where viewers can
escape from the doldrums of winter.

Images must be able to hang on a track system via a frame or a wire on
the back of the piece. Sculptures must be no larger than 10” x 10” x 10”.
Framed images must be no larger than 30" x 40".

For consideration, please submit 3-5 jpgs of the images or sculptures
you would like to exhibit to the Gallery Director, Lisa Bennett, at
yellowwallgallery@gmail.com by January 15, 2010.
Artists will be notified of accepted artwork on January 18, 2010.
