Call for The Surreal Spectacle

We seek to lure those who delve into the weird and unknown crevices of their boundless imagination to bring forth a viewing spectacle that is oddly attractive. Those unafraid to portray the bizarre, counterculture truths hiding in the shadows of plain sight are encouraged to submit. We welcome all mediums of 2D and 3D art that are meant to challenge the viewer's mind and cause a stir of wonder and intrigue to the precipice of delirium. This call will showcase unusual sights from bright artists who are unashamed of their discontentment of the status quo. Conformity is not welcomed, for we wish to celebrate the timeless absurdity of Surrealism from contemporary artists, worldwide. Welcome to The Surreal Spectacle.
