Future Visions at Gallery 263
Deadline of June 26, 2016!
Gallery 263 in Cambridge, MA has a call to art to any artists in New England and New York.
Theme:
Gallery 263 seeks inspired depictions of tomorrow. What do you picture as the future of our world, or what you want to see? Your vision may be utopian, idealistic, sobering, or a warning cry to evaluate human behaviors now. By illuminating future possibilities, exploring fantasy, and making predictions, you provide a valuable visual contribution to our world. In addition to expanding our imaginations, you ultimately fuel innovation, and influence change among our leaders and one another. Artwork may address (among many other topics): technology, architecture and urban planning, lifestyle, health, the environment, food, social problems, globalization, international relations, pop culture, politics, etc.
