Call To Artists: The Gulf Coast As An Art Region
Image via WikipediaThe 2nd Annual Gulf-South Regional Contemporary Art Exhibition is hosted by the BECA Gallery in New Orleans, La, but is open to all merging 2-d and 3-d artists in the Gulf states of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida who do not already have representation in New Orleans.
The purpose of the annual ‘Gulf South Regional Contemporary Art Exhibition’ is to discover and highlight new emerging Gulf South contemporary artists, their current work and the ideas that are motivating their creative processes. The exhibition is juried by the gallery’s Co-Directors who are seeking the most engaging and innovative works to feature during this group exhibition.
We see a nascent trend toward bio-regionalism in art emerging here, and would welcome the inclusion of gulf-coastal Mexico in future exhibitions, in the same way that British Columbia is often included in events with northern California, Oregon and Washington. It becomes increasingly obvious that arbitrary political boundaries make little difference to birds, fish or artists.
