Archway 5th Annual Juried Exhibition

Archway Gallery is accepting entries to its 5th Annual Juried Exhibition July 9- July 10.  The prospectus is available for download HERE; hard copies are available at the gallery. 

The competition is open to all artists in south and central Texas, age 18 years or older.  Interested 2D and 3D artists are encouraged to read carefully and follow guidelines as outlined in the prospectus.

The 5th Annual Juried Exhibition at Archway Gallery opens July 13 and runs through August 1.  The opening reception, which is free and open to the public, is set for July 13 at Archway Gallery from 5 – 8 pm. All accepted work will be on exhibit and awards will be presented. The Best of Show winner will be presented with a $500 cash award and will receive guest artist privileges for one month at the Gallery. Cash awards will also be presented to the second and third place award-winning artists. Honorable Mentions will be awarded at the discretion of the juror.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale from this year’s exhibition will benefit the non-profit Buffalo Bayou Project, which educates the public on preservation of bayous, rivers, wildlife corridors and natural habitats, and it promotes greater understanding of ways the quality of human life is enhanced by the preservation of our urban wilderness and ecology. BBP creates and supports hands-on ecological programs and conservation initiatives for literary, artistic, inspirational and educational purposes

The juror will be Patrick M. Palmer, Dean of The Glassell School of Art of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, as well as Faculty Chair of its Studio School and Department Head of Art History. He earned a BA from the University of California/Santa Barbara in 1977 and an MFA from Arizona State University in 1979. Palmer has had a long teaching career with The Glassell School, the University of St. Thomas, the Art League of Houston, Mississippi State University, UC Berkeley, the City College of San Francisco and Arizona State University. He has curated and judged a number of gallery and competitive exhibitions, and he has received two Houston Cultural Arts Council Artist Project Awards. Throughout his painting career, Palmer has placed works in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NY, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and many other prestigious museum and university collections. His work has been selected for numerous competitive and collective exhibitions, and he has had a number of one-person shows. Palmer’s current paintings revisit an oft-examined theme of shadowed memories within his abstracted figures/heads.
