In and Out of the Box
The ebb and flow of consumerism initiated the decline of shopping in person at big box/warehouse stores and the rise of the virtual/mail order shopping experience. As a result of this shift, there has naturally been a rise in the number of boxes being sent around the world from retailer to buyer. Additionally, the experience of packaging, sealing, opening, and unwrapping has exponentially grown. "In and Out of the Box" invites imaginative makers to explore this unfolding cultural phenomenon. This show will address the nature of "boxing": packing, sending, delivering, receiving, etc. All boxes and packaging material will be displayed in this exhibit, as we strive to make the process of the delivery a focus of the show.

More Is More- call for entries- no entry fee
More is More examines a common tendency towards multiples and repetition in contemporary art. Our love and worship of multiples takes on many forms, including both repeating objects and images. Are we responding to an influence from industry, technology, materialism and consumerism? Or is this exponential growth from a more abstract desire or compulsion? Regardless where the pattern originated, these serial acts have profound implications about the society that created them. This national juried exhibition offers artists’ exploring the concept of multiples, repetition or abundance, in any media, a chance to exhibit the results. LAL invites artists to openly and creatively interpret this theme.

FIRED - A View of Ceramics
For millennia people have made things out of burnt earth. From bowls and jars essential for preserving foods to ensure survival, to written documents and official seals, to talismans of devotion for various deities and other ritualistic purposes. Ancient kilns were one of humanity's earliest forms of factory-based mass-production. Today the role of fired earth persists in both old and new ways.
FIRED is an invitation for artists to submit works that in some way represent the use of the medium of ceramics. There is no other thematic restriction, and our jury fully expects to consider a range of types of work, from the very traditional to highly unexpected 'contemporary' interpretations of the medium.
Postmark Deadline for Entry: March 2, 2011
