Emerging

Coming in NOVEMBER to ARC Gallery
JURIED BY ARTIST LAURA RUDOLF CLOUD, Michigan State University Professor

Many artists 'begin' their careers as artists not only in their early twenties but in later decades and for a wide variety of reasons-rediscovery of a long suppressed drive, delayed ability to focus on creating, a return to art school later in life, or a moment of enlightenment.This exhibition is calling for EMERGING artists of all ages and will feature the diversity of work that they are currently creating. All media will be considered including film/video/new media, mixed media/multi-disciplinary, installation and performance.
