ROUND ROCK PRINTS 2021 – CALL FOR ART
January 19 – February 26, 2021 | Downtowner Gallery
We’re excited to announce the Call for Entries for Round Rock PRINTS 2021 Contemporary Print Juried Exhibition as a partner with Print Austin. We are seeking fresh perspectives in contemporary printmaking by local artists.
Our primary focus will honor traditional hand pulled printmaking techniques. These include relief, intaglio, silkscreen, lithography, monotype, and photopolymer plate (i.e. Solarplates). Innovative approaches in contemporary printmaking (digital) will be considered as long as traditional print methods are still the primary technique. Purely digital and photographic prints are not eligible.
Submission is $5 per image, 1-3 pieces per artist. No size restrictions. Two-dimensional visual art will be the primary focus of this show, but we will consider three-dimensional objects if printmaking is involved. Call for art deadline is December 27, at 10PM.
