Call for Entries: Drip, Dribble, Splash | Works Inspired By Abstraction

Abstract art references an object, figure, or landscape, where forms have been simplified or schematised. Many artists apply this technique to geometric shapes or gestural marks, which have no source at all in an external visual reality.

Some artists practicing ‘pure’ abstraction have preferred terms such as “concrete art” or “non-objective art” but in practice the word abstract is used across the board. In many ways, abstract art is often seen as carrying a moral dimension, in that it exemplifies virtues such as order, purity, simplicity, and spirituality. Since the early 1900s, abstract art has formed a central stream of modern art.

Artists’ works for this call for entries can exemplify any abstract technique. All media will be considered.
