Center on Contemporary Art: 2011 Annual Juried Exhibition

Deadline: December 4, 2011 (ONLINE)

2011 Annual Juried Exhibition
Center on Contemporary Art

Seattle, WA
December 29, 2011 - March 18, 2012


From December 29, 2011 - March 18, 2012, CoCA will present its 22nd annual juried exhibition seeking work from emerging as well as established artists in a wide variety of visual media. While there is no theme this year as such, we're hunting for work that experiments and explores in general, crossing disciplinary boundaries, challenging established notions of time and space, cultural production, and the objet d'art itself.

CoCA has presented the Annual since 1989, each time inviting an independent juror to select the work from among the entries received. For this year's 22nd anniversary of the show, CoCA is proud to have Gary Hill as juror.


Artists in any region and any country are welcome to submit. Two-dimensional, three-dimensional and multi-media work will be considered. A $500 first prize and a $250 second prize will be awarded by the juror, as well as up to two "honorable mentions" featured on CoCA's website. A catalog of the show will feature artists' statements, biographies, and images, as well as an introductory essay by Gary Hill. In addition to having all participating artists archived on CoCA's website, there will also be an opportunity to place work in CoCA's new online store.


Entry Fee: $15 (US) (PayPal)
