"Right Now It's All Yellow", 4/24/25 - 5/18/25
Opening Reception 4/26/25
Inspired by the hope that Spring WILL arrive this year, and having hope for all sorts of things anyway, electrical bananas, the sun, daffodils, lemons and yellow submarines, we invite you to submit work for consideration into our Drawing Rooms spring exhibit, "Right Now It's All Yellow". The show is dedicated to Donovan whose music was emblematic of the flower power era with its blend of folk, pop, psychedelica and jazzy stylings, and whose early songs, Mellow Yellow, Sunshine Superman and Colours, we especially like.
Drawing Rooms will feature selected works from this exhibition for sale on Artsy.net
EVENTS
Opening Reception Sat, 4/26/25, 6-9p
Meet The Artists: Sun, 5/4/25, 5/11/25 & 5/18/25, 3-5p
CURATION
The curator will choose one or more of each artist’s works and place them in context together to create visual, formal and conceptual connections, amplifying themes and deepening ways of understanding the works.
ACCEPTABLE WORKS
Works can be unframed, framed, or mounted on a cradled panel.
Please use simple frames in white, black or wood tones, no floating acrylic frames. All works must be ready-to-hang. Works can be hung from the top of the frame or cradled panel. Please self-assess if your frame is strong enough for this. Otherwise, please use picture wire (not fishing line); d-rings are ok. Cleats are not acceptable, nor anything that requires the use of screws in the wall.
Works that present hanging problems may not be included in the exhibit. No special hanging instructions, please.
SALE OF ARTWORK
All works in the exhibit must be for sale with 60% to artists and 40% to Drawing Rooms.
