CALL FOR SUBMITTALS: PARADISE HERE

We are curating a visual art exhibition to open on 27th Jan. 2020. “Paradise Here” is about our personal interior gardens, how we keep alive the things we care most about though they may be inaccessible in the day to day. The term “paradise” is open to personal interpretation, though submittals need to show originality and a highly personal approach. It is about how we rest, daydream and allow pleasure in our daily lives. The exhibition may travel internationally (Monte Carlo, Paris, Dubai).

Video/Screen art is welcome though artist must provide electronics and set up. 1 outdoor painting can be commissioned by venue (to be done on a wall on the premises)

DATES

Deadline for submittals 1st Jan 2020 though we strongly recommend earlier submissions.

Exhibition to open week of 27th Jan. 2020 for 3 months approx. though works to be delivered to central London 17-21 Jan 2020.

Curation: "the art of integrating art works in the space they live in"

 'Thread of Light' Art Exhibition: 

This exhibition was born from the need to tell a story focused on the lives and creativity of the people of the Middle East... by showcasing the talent of emerging and established artists. We looked for a highly individual, subtle voice commenting on what is happening in the region today. We brought together established artists such as Hassan Hajjaj, Hanaa Malallah and Kennardphillips with more emerging artists, in translating this concept over 300m2 at the P21 Gallery London.

In providing a window to these creative minds the exhibition succeeded in providing an alternative image and story to how the region is often stereotyped by the media and Hollywood.

Special thanks to Joud Tamimi Halawani for her valuable assistance.
