2019 Photography Juried Exhibition

Picture
Entry deadline: May 8th
The Fort Gallery's 2019 juried photography exhibition invites submissions on discoveries of unexpected abstract art.

We are fascinated by found or incidental drawings that occur because someone has made a mark on the sidewalk, a wall or other public surface. Esoteric spray paint markings of engineers on roads and bridges indicating repairs to be made or the location of water or gas pipes.  Drawings made on the ground in black tar where the installers of weight activated traffic light signals break up a circle of pavement and then lay down a wiring of some sort to the signal box at the side of the road. Spilled paint. A brush or roller cleaned on newspaper   A crab or snail leaving prints in the sand.  Footprints, human or animal, in mud or snow.

Unintentional abstracts occur everywhere: on walls, sidewalks, roads, where someone has spilled or spattered paint or marked the surface to signify something, or in nature, where the passage of some creature has left a patterned trace.
