DRAWN: The 8th Annual International Exhibition of Contemporary Drawing NEW
Deadline: February 10, 2021
Entry Fee: $40 for up to FOUR entries submitted. $5 per each additional entry.
Exhibition Dates: April 16 - May 14, 2021
Location: Cincinnati, OH
Contact: Jason Franz, info@manifestgallery.org
Additional Information: The Cincinnati based non-profit arts organization and gallery, Manifest, invites visual artists to submit works of drawing in any media relevant to the practice (including non-traditional approaches), any style, and any genre (fine art, illustration, design, conceptual, realism, etc.). This exhibit has no expectation for type or style of work to be considered or selected. Submissions can range from the most traditional to the most conceptual or experimental.
Manifest was founded in-part to stand for the importance of drawing as a process, skill, and discipline, and as a continuing viable product of the creative fine art and design fields. Since its inception our organization has continued to incorporate drawing-based programming, including education (Drawing Center), publications (INDA), and gallery exhibits into the broader spectrum of its projects. The artists who formed Manifest in 2004 knew that despite their diverging career paths (architecture, art history, painting, industrial design, photography) they were brought together because of their connection to drawing and their mutually intense but multi-faceted pursuit of this fundamental discipline.
In honor of the original spirit of the founding ideals of Manifest, the gallery launched DRAWN almost a decade ago as a new annual exhibition marking the organization's 10th season. DRAWN seeks to survey and present the broad scope of drawing being made today. This gallery exhibit is completely separate from the triennial INDA publication projects.
ANNUAL CASH AWARD: The annual Manifest Grand Jury Prize will result in the awarding of one significant cash prize ($2500) to a single work selected as the 'best of the entire season'.

METAL: An International Call for Works Made of or about Metal NEW
Deadline: February 12, 2021
Entry Fee: $40 for up to FOUR entries submitted. $5 per each additional entry.
Exhibition Dates: April 16-May 14, 2021
Location: Cincinnati, OH
Contact: Jason Franz, info@manifestgallery.org
Additional Information: The Cincinnati based non-profit arts organization and gallery, Manifest, invites visual artists to submit works that are either representations of, feature prominently, or are made primarily of metal. Submissions can range from the most traditional to the most conceptual, abstract, or experimental of any media.Historically magical, metal holds its place in human history alongside such formative catalysts of civilization as the taming of the dog and horse, agriculture, electricity, and even DNA. Considering that roughly 80% of the periodic table of elements falls within the category of metal, it's no wonder it is, like water, so essential to our way of life today, and to life in general. Even one's blood tastes of iron. But, as we know, not all metal is created or perceived equally. As it was reported recently an iron dagger belonging to the ancient Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamen was crafted from a fallen meteorite (iron was more valued than gold in Egypt over 3,000 years ago!).Metal is yet another generally ubiquitous category of materials, so pervasive as to be taken for granted on a daily basis. Manifest is interested in how artists elevate, observe, depict, and characterize metal in the art of today. ANNUAL CASH AWARD: The annual Manifest Grand Jury Prize will result in the awarding of one significant cash prize ($2500) to a single work selected as the 'best of the entire season'.

Most of us look right past it, or at best realize its potential for basement, attic, or closet storage duty. It would seem only children, and cats, truly appreciate the magical nature of this otherwise mundane material.
