Calling Artists For Time And Seasons Exhibeo Art Competition Win Media Coverage And Cash Prizes

Exhibeo Art Magazine takes a broad approach to our theme driven competitions. For this competition, we will be accepting 2D paintings, mosaic, drawings, pastels, etching,mix media photography and 3D sculpture. Any artist over 18 years of age anywhere in the world is eligible to apply. Your art can focus on either time or the seasons. Or both!

Your work can be in any genre (landscape, abstract, still life, portraiture, figurative) and executed in any "ism" (realisms, impressionism, surrealism, expressionism, abstract expressionism, minimalism, etc). Any artist over 18 years of age anywhere in the world can participate in this competition.

Here is a basic breakdown of the thematic elements to get the creative juices flowing...

Time is tied into the notion of being: of being born, of growth, dynamic progression and, ultimately, death. Humans have studied time from the vantage point of science, religion and philosophy since early antiquity. All three of these branches of human inquiry have long understood that the range of time cycles is as vast as the universe. Yet while time affects all things: fruit flies, humans, mountain ranges, planets, stars, and galaxies… it remains elusive. It can be expressed in a myriad of ways.

Seasons are temporal time markers that remind us that while an individual organism’s life is linear, it is part of a larger, more intricate time cycle that ultimately extends to cosmic proportions.

Seasonal cues focus our activities on specific tasks, leisure activities and religious rituals. In turn, these tasks, activities and rituals link us to our communities and cultural heritage.

For this competition, we are interested in art that ties into either time or the seasons (or both!). This means that we are open to a wide range of subject matter that relates to these themes: human activity, seasonal rituals, times of day, daily rituals, various perspectives on time - birth, death, the stages of life, moments frozen in time, a second, minute, hour, day, tectonic movement and natural erosion over eons, or cosmic space/time to list but a few of the possibilities available to you.

We`ve been getting email asking if we accept photography. The answer is yes, but only for "Time and Seasons" art competition. Call it a test run...

Yesterday we received a lot of email requests to open up "the Art of Abstraction" contest to photographic art work. We have thus opened that competition to Photographs as well.
