Eutectic Gallery- Call to Artists

Eutectic Gallery of Portland, Oregon proudly announces an open call to artists in the ceramic medium. 

Eu・tec・tic – [yoo-tek-tik] adj.:
The proportion of constituents in a mixture that yields the lowest
possible complete melting point; often lower than the constituents on
their own.

Similar to the relationship between the components that make up clay and their proportions, Eutectic Gallery wishes to explore the relationship between an artist’s process, product, & concept, and the public’s interpretation of, interaction with, and critique of said work.

Eutectic is seeking submissions that interpret and exemplify the
Eutectic concept throughout a body on work, or between two artists and
two bodies of work.

The cost of submission for a single artist is $25 and $35 for a pair
and may include up to 5 images.  Additional images can be submitted for
$5 each.

Deadlines, to be considered for a specific month, submissions must be made by the following dates:

  • April- February 8th
  • May- March 8th
  • June- April 12th
  • July- May 10th

All submission fees are non refundable.  Submissions can be sent via
US Postal Service, Fed Ex or UPS to the address below. Compact Discs,
DVDs, flash drives or 8″x10″ prints can be sent with proper
documentation along with a cheque for the correct amount addressed to:
