Works on Paper

For many, the freedom and immediacy afforded by working on paper is instrumental to their practices, spawning new
techniques and aesthetics, subjects and methods. Works On Paper encompasses a diverse range of media — from
drawing, printmaking, painting, collage, and beyond. Far from being confined to studies and experiments, works on
paper represent important modes of art-making in their own right.
BWAC is seeking artists exploring the creative potential of working on paper. Works On Paper will showcase artists with
an experimental spirit and exploration of the interaction between artist and paper in the process of creating art. No
photography. Original and framed work only.

May Flowers

As a way to welcome the arrival of Spring, our May group art show ”May Flowers” seeks to celebrate flowers, their beauty, and rich historical significance in various cultures worldwide.

Throughout history, humans have used flowers to communicate their emotions and to commemorate various occasions. The beauty and fleeting nature of flowers and the diverse cultural associations and symbolism attached to them have served as an inspiration to many great artists from Vincent Van Gogh to Maria Sibylla Merian. This group show showcases how flowers have remained an emblem of beauty and significance in both art and human culture over the ages. We encourage our artists to explore various interpretations of flowers and their significance in the art world.

Through a BIPOC Lens: Decolonizing Feminism

There are many schools of feminist thought; and mainstream feminism has not – intentionally or not – been inclusive of all voices. One such response to this is the “womanist” movement coined by Alice Walker in 1979, for black feminists or feminists of color, to address more specifically the needs of these groups. WMG would like to take a critical look at feminism. We want to hear the voices and view the work of those who have been systematically marginalized. Please submit images of up three works in all media that include a visual element and have not been previously exhibited at the Gallery. Artists must address the theme of this exhibition in their work and in their artist statement. Jurors: Monica J. Brown and Donna Jackson.
