How do artists render the work of scientists, authors, explorers, astronomers, cartoonists, Trekkies, LARPers, astrologers, and philosophers? This exhibit embraces not only what science has revealed about space, but what humans have imagined about the cosmos. From the results of scientific inquiry to the creative minds of science fiction authors and fans, this exhibit celebrates how space has stimulated human understanding and creativity. From the big bang theory to worm holes and warp speed, artists are invited to submit works that bring to life what we know of space and what we imagine. The goal is to assemble a vibrant and diverse selection of works that speak to our fascination with the cosmos. All media welcome; small to large-scale installations; new media encouraged; cash awards. Deadline to apply: December 5, 2014.

DEADLINE DECEMBER 16, 2014 PH21 Gallery: Contemplation - Call for Entries Contests, Juried Art Shows - Photography Photo Gallery A juried international photography exhibition. January 8–28, 2015. Exhibit in Europe! Photography is a highly contemplative endeavour, as manifested in the numerous genres, styles, traditions and applications of the medium. As photographers make sense of and react to the world around them their interpretative efforts bring about meanings that would often go unnoticed if it were not for photographic images. From tiny meaningful details of our physical environment to complex psychological and social affairs photographs help us understand each other and ourselves better. Photographic contemplation cuts through genres and subjects because all photographic genres and subjects have contemplative potentials. In addition, photographers often surprise us with profoundly meaningful images that have been created in contexts or genres where thoughtful reflection may be one of the last things we would expect to find. PH21 Gallery invites photographers to submit their work for a group exhibition themed Contemplation. We are looking for submissions from all photographers who are interested in this most intriguing topic, and who would like to share their work with a wider international audience through the exposure of PH21 Gallery. The theme is broadly construed; contemplation is understood as independent of generic or stylistic constraints. Indeed, we are interested in all possible creative photographic interpretations of the theme. Submission deadline: December 16, 2014 midnight (UTC+01, Central European Time)

DEADLINE JANUARY 15, 2015 - $600 in Awards Time and Seasons Exhibeo Art Competition Online Event - Calls for 18 and under - Acrylic, Digital Media, Glass, Mosaic, Drawing/Illustration, Mixed media, Metalsmithing, Sculpture, Oil, Pastel, Photography, Watercolor Online Gallery Exhibeo takes a broad approach to our theme driven competitions. Your art can focus on either time or the seasons. Or both. Your work can be in any genre (landscape, abstract, still life, portraiture, figurative) and executed in any "ism" (realisms, impressionism, surrealism, expressionism, abstract expressionism, minimalism, etc). Here is a basic breakdown of the thematic elements to get the creative juices flowing. Time is tied into the notion of being: of being born, of growth, dynamic progression and, ultimately, death. Humans have studied time from the vantage point of science, religion and philosophy since early antiquity. Yet while time affects all things: fruit flies, humans, mountain ranges, planets, stars, and galaxies… it remains elusive. It can be expressed in a myriad of ways. Seasons are temporal time markers that remind us that while an individual organism's life is linear, it is part of a larger, more intricate time cycle that ultimately extends to cosmic proportions. Seasonal cues focus our activities on specific tasks, leisure activities and religious rituals. In turn, these tasks, activities and rituals link us to our communities and cultural heritage. 1st Place winner: $300 cash prize + full interview published in Exhibeo online Art Magazine. 2nd Place winner: $200 cash prize + promo features published in Exhibeo online Art Magazine. 3rd Place winner: $100 cash prize + promo features published in Exhibeo online Art Magazine.
