Night & Day – Group show OPEN CALL


NIGHT & DAY Winter Group Show OPEN CALL

We are looking for works of art that symbolize the day and the night.
As we head into a new decade, we want to show the artist’s vision, state of mind,  and the effects of light and darkness pertaining to the direction we are headed.
As Dorothy M. Richardson said : ”Night is torment. This is why people go to sleep. To avoid clear sight and torment” 
Do you see the light ahead ?

We are really excited to be partnering with Departure Studios in LIC, to make this a 2 part exhibition simultaneously happening in each space, creating a flow of light and darkness between both locations.
