Sales opportunity
Fresh Eye Gallery is taking submissions for Fandom. This group exhibition will feature art that enthusiastically engages with pop culture. We are seeking art that is inspired by a source of media: be it a book, television series, movie or musical. We also welcome art that features a specific person, such as an actor, musician, artist, or other form of celebrity.
Fan art creates connections that form community, nostalgia, and comfort. Our fascination with celebrities, singers, actors and musicians can be a point of bonding and shared joy and can also remind us of what qualities and attributes we admire in ourselves and one another. Above all, Fandom will be a show celebrating fans, admiration, and delight.
This show will exhibit alongside our annual Yulemart holiday market, immersing the gallery with fun and festive art.
Accepted Media: 2D works (drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, collage), 3D works (fiber, sculpture, installation), and video. Artists can submit up to 3 images in jpeg or mp4 (for video). All 2D work must be wired and ready to hang. The Gallery’s commission is 35%.
