Compete New Horizons: Landscapes 25

3 Square Art Fort Collins, Colorado, United States

3 Square Art

Opportunity Description

International Deadline: December 30, 2024 – Join us on a visual journey through the ever-evolving realm of landscapes at our New Horizons: Landscapes 25, 8th Annual Exhibition.

Explore the dynamic interplay between our changing landscapes and the evolving human connection to nature. Witness the exploration of newfound connections or the poignant losses embedded in the evolving terrain. Will landscapes become mere reproductions, frozen in the frame of a photograph, or can artists infuse them with the vibrant hues, nuanced lighting, intricate designs, and rich textures that encapsulate the profound essence of their experiences?

Much like the revolutionary impact of impressionism and cubism on our perception of landscape art in the past, what fresh interpretations and innovative perspectives define today’s landscape art scene? In “New Horizons,” we invite artists to submit works in both expansive and intimate formats, encouraging bold strokes, novel viewpoints, meaningful dialogues, vibrant blends of color, or monochromatic studies. The canvas is open to your creative exploration—what lies on the horizon for the future of landscape art?

On display February 7 – March 21, 2025.

ELIGIBILITY
The New Horizons: Landscapes 24 competition is open to artists who are at least 18 years old submitting original works of art created within the past 3 years.

The competition welcomes ALL media, including painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, printmaking, textiles, and digital art.

Artworks must be created in the past 3 years (2021-2024); any artworks completed before 2021 will be disqualified.

The theme of this exhibit is landscapes. We are seeking all approaches to landscapes both traditional and contemporary to abstract.

Seascapes and cityscapes are also part of the landscape genre and are suitable for submission.
