Situated Stories

Asian Art Contemporary is pleased to announce an open call for submissions to the upcoming virtual exhibition, Situated Stories. This exhibition examines how narratives emerge through context, storytelling, and the application of medium in artistic practice. Contemporary Asian artists worldwide are invited to submit works that engage with this theme—whether through personal histories, cultural memory, or experimental approaches to narrative.

Artist Carol Paik and curator Phil Zheng Cai have been invited as jurors for this open call. They will select works that best embody the curatorial vision of the exhibition and its commitment to presenting diverse voices in contemporary Asian art.

Call For Photography: In the Nude

In the Nude is a photography exhibition that strips away pretense to confront the raw, unapologetic beauty of the human body. From the divine proportions of antiquity to the stark vulnerability of contemporary flesh, these works expose the nude not as an object to be idealized, but as a living canvas of desire, defiance, and truth.

In the Nude is an international open call for photographers ages 18 and older. All forms of two-dimensional images, traditional and non-conventional media, and conventional or alternative photographic processes with a subjective analog or digital photographic base are welcome for submission.

Lucid — In Dreams

Dreams offer us a glimpse into the realm of the unconscious. Although the images flickering and manifesting behind our eyes may seem bizarre and nonsensical, analysis of one's dreams can reveal their essence. Beneath the surface of our consciousness, the latent content of dreams illustrates the hidden meaning of our thoughts, drives, and desires. We suppress the manifestation of our unconscious to defend ourselves from primitive emotions that are especially difficult to contend with. What is revealed to you as you sleep and perchance to dream? What images make you stop and ask—am I dreaming?
