Open call to artists for entries into Angst Gallery’s annual Celebration of the Male Form (January 4-26, 2019).

Art museums around the world are filled with images and representations of the human figure. Some of the Western world’s most famous and compelling works depict people, both clothed and unclothed. It usually goes unnoticed that the art has a disproportionate amount of female figures compared to male ones, especially nude forms.

Angst Gallery showcases the male form at the beginning of each year in order to bring more balance to the equation. We see this as an opportunity to appreciate the male body for what it is–natural, beautiful, and worthy of aesthetic examination–while also acknowledging the gender imbalance in the art world, both behind the scenes as well as in the work being displayed in museums and galleries. The show will include depictions of the male form in various media.

Submit up to three pieces for a sliding scale submission fee of $10-20.

You can submit your art on Saturday, December 22 from 2-6 pm or Wednesday, January 2 from 11am-2pm.

If neither of these times work, please contact Leah Jackson (Leah.AngstGallery@gmail.com) to make other arrangements.

Art that is not accepted for the show can be picked up on January 3 between 12 and 4.

Unsold artwork that appeared in the show can be picked up from noon til 5 on Saturday, January 26.
