“Mothers”, seeks to open up the many roles and shapes “mothers” may take.  While we all may have our own ideas about motherhood, the ideas and notions behind our definitions can be as varied as we are.  While fundamental to our world and its existence, it is easily forgotten the wide variety of shapes and sizes that mothers may come in for different individuals.  In order to celebrate the countless mothers of our world, and their varied forms, this show will feature work that broadens our own definitions of “motherhood”.

This group show is juried by artist and scholar, Rachel Epp Buller. More information on the juror can be found here.

“Mothers” is still seeking art and will be open to submissions until August 11th!  If you are interested in submitting work, or want to learn more about the show, please visit our website at: http://www.womanmade.org/entryform.html

Calls for Art: “Girl, Please!”

“Girl, Please!” is intended to explore and transcend the definition and expectations of gender that are present everyday in our society.  The theory of gender performance can be a complicated idea for most people to unpack, let alone identify their own place within.  Perhaps through the creation and contemplation of art work made in response to these ideas, we all can learn a little more about the unique role that gender plays in each of our lives.  If we allow ourselves to question our societal, and our own, definition of gender, we might be able to learn more about the individuals who stand behind these descriptions.  And in another attempt of exploration, this show is open to the artwork of all genders, and it will be juried by some of Woman Made Gallery’s own staff, Kristen Carter and Emanuel Aguilar (for information on the jurors click here).

 ”Girl, Please!” is still seeking art and will be open to submissions until August 11th!  If you are interested in submitting work, or want to learn more about them, please visit our website at: http://www.womanmade.org/entryform.html
