Desotorow Gallery announces a call to artists for “Spoked,” an exhibition to be held Mar. 4 - Mar. 15, 2011.
Bicycles have had an immeasurable impact on culture worldwide. The passion they elicit has proven to be a universal presence with numerous subcultures. The bicycle is an object of pure simplicity, yet paradoxically our relationship with this ultimate human-powered machine is infinitely complex. The exhibition Spoked celebrates work that represents bicycles and bicycle culture in its many forms.
The juried exhibition “Spoked” is open to national and international artists of all levels. To be considered, an entry form, entry fee, artist statement and digital images of the artwork should be submitted to Desotorow Gallery by 5pm, Feb. 24, 2011. A $20 submission fee allows for the submission of up to 3 pieces of work. Artists will receive notification of the list of selected pieces through email on Feb. 25.
