Beauty in Decay

Beauty is subjective in the eye of the viewer. Societal conventions pressure us to conform to like-mindedness, yet the most ethereal craft often originates from divergent work that transgresses tradition. True innovation and creative brilliance often occur when individuals question or break away from established norms. How does your work depict or challenge the concept of beauty? The Beauty in Decay 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.

Birthplace Plaza Sculpture Project

Submission Deadline: August 18, 2025

Installation Deadline: April 15, 2026

Sculpture Walk Springfield, in partnership with the Rotary Clubs of Springfield, invites artists to submit proposals for a permanent sculpture to be installed at Birthplace Plaza, a historically significant site marking the origin of Route 66 in downtown Springfield, Missouri.

The chosen artwork will signify the cultural importance of Route 66, enhance the plaza’s long-term identity, and provide striking visuals both during the day and at night. This request is distinct from the Impact Piece RFP and concentrates exclusively on independent sculptural work.
