Gulf Coast State College Amelia Center Gallery is hosting a juried exhibition that explores the idea of the drinking vessel. The exhibition will focus on the function and concept of the drinking vessel, including its relation to history, politics, craft, technology, utility, and narrative. The exhibition will be a survey of the wide variety of approaches to contemporary ceramics through the lens of the most intimate and accessible vessel, the cup.
Juror
Linda Arbuckle is a professor at the University of Florida, Gainesville. Her work in majolica-glazed earthenware has been recognized through an Artists’ Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts, as well as a Florida Individual Artists’ Fellowship. Artist-in-residence positions in Wales and the People’s Republic of China have provided further balance of Eastern and Western resources in her works.
Eligibility
The exhibition is open to both functional and sculptural work that addresses the idea of “the cup”. Please submit only original work that has been completed in the last three (3) years. Amelia Center Gallery reserves the right to reject any work that is not suitably prepared for exhibition or that differs from the original submission.
