Call for Entry: The Art of the Shack at the Coachella Valley Art Center (California)
Shacks
For International artists
“There’s no place like home.” So said Dorothy Gale, famously, in The Wizard of Oz. Nothing could be truer.
No matter the address, from mansion to humble dwelling - urban to rural, it’s more about individuality, determination and soul. In The Art of the Shack, we explore and celebrate the concept of home inspired by the work of American artist Beverly Buchanan (1940-2015) who was influenced by the sharecropper shacks she experienced in the Deep South and the do-it-yourself builders and architects around the globe.
Developed by the S.C.R.A.P. Gallery and the Coachella Valley Art Center, the exhibit is calling for small-scale sculptures using recycled and reused materials. Size limited to no larger than 12" x 12"
Deadline: 07-04-2019
