Are you an emerging artist? Are you searching for a great place to show off your work? Have your art displayed at Edgefest!
We are looking for large-scale, unique and interesting sculptural installations which push the boundaries of traditional art. There are no limits in terms of scale – we want art that compliments the size and energy of Edgefest itself.
Building materials can be anything that stretches the imagination. Exciting works that are also low-budget or eco-friendly are welcome, as well as any video or light installations. Works that are interactive or encourage audience participation are recommended.
We hope for this exhibition to represent the diversity and community spirit of contemporary Canadian art.
If you’re selected, you will get four tickets to Edgefest, free parking, and an awesome spot to display your work! You will be contacted ASAP to inform you that you have been accepted.
Application deadline is Friday June 5, 2009.
Download the application form here
Please contact cameronwright@rogers.com for more information.
