Off the Wall Gallery AT DIRTY FRANKS

Off the Wall Gallerys 12th Annual Juried Exhibition, UNDER $100, seeks outstanding
artwork across all possible media that is priced at $95 or less. (Lets try to avoid $99.99!)
Thats right: instead of the complex themes we often suggest for juried exhibitions, were aiming
for a show featuring high-quality art that is highly affordablejust in time for the holidays!
By all possible media, we mean anything at all, encompassing 2D, 3D and multimedia.
This includes paintings, drawings and photographs; work in textile and assemblage; sculpture
of all kinds; work sourced from fine art materials and found objects; and digital creations, too.
By asking for outstanding artwork, we hope to inspire you to showcase your talents and
strong suits with entries of the first order.
The jury will accept artists based on the quality of the work as presented electronically and a
brief, two-sentence statement to the jury.
Through October 20, were accepting submissions in all media
meeting two size requirements: 2D work when framed must be
no larger than 48 inches in combined dimensions (height plus
width), while 3D work must fit easily in our case.
You must supply images on disc or flash drive, together with
titles, framed dimensions, media, prices, a statement and an
entry fee of $5 per work. No entries of actual work will be accepted.
