Abstract Artists Against Artificial Intelligence Call for Artists

The FJKluth Art Gallery is pleased to announce an open call for artists to participate in our next exhibition titled "Abstract Artists Against Artificial Intelligence." The exhibition aims to explore the relationship between abstract art and artificial intelligence, and how artists respond to the growing role of technology in the creative process.

As artificial intelligence continues to advance and impact various aspects of our lives, including the arts, this exhibition seeks to challenge and provoke conversations about the role of human creativity and expression in the face of technological advancements.

We invite abstract artists from all backgrounds and regions to submit their work for consideration. We welcome a wide range of mediums, including but not limited to painting, drawing, sculpture, mixed media, and digital art. Artists are encouraged to experiment with different techniques and materials to convey their unique perspectives on the theme.

Submissions should demonstrate a clear connection to abstract art and address the theme of artificial intelligence from a critical, conceptual, or aesthetic perspective. We are particularly interested in artworks that explore the tension between the organic and the digital, the human and the machine, and the traditional and the technological.

You may submit your artwork here: https://forms.gle/3YZnnD9grVTFuLwt7 

Artists interested can submit up to five (5) artwork(s). Acceptable artwork may be original drawings, paintings, sketches, photography, sculpture, and other two- or three- dimensional mixed media work. Artwork that is to be hung on the walls must be no greater than 30” in height or width; and no heavier than 20 pounds. Artwork provided that will be displayed on tables must be no more than 20” in height, width, or length; and no heavier than 20 pounds.

Submissions are free. We will be accepting submissions now through Friday, May 19th, 11:59pm. Depending on submission quantity and spacing availability, we can only accept a limited amount of artworks. We will contact all artists on what pieces have and have not been accepted of theirs by Wednesday, May 24th, 2023. Accepted artwork can be delivered to the FJKluth Art Gallery anytime after May 24th, 2023. If the accepted artwork(s) are not delivered by Friday, June 2nd, 2023, then we will have to rescind the acception.
