Remington Museum seeks entries for members’ art show opening in Ogdensburg in May

Posted

OGDENSBURG --The Frederic Remington Art Museum is taking artwork submissions for the 2015 Members’ Juried Art Exhibit, which will be on display May 23 to Sept. 27 in the museum's Richard E. Winter and Torrey Family galleries.

Museum member artists can submit up to three digital photos of their art. Open to artists everywhere, one work from each artist is guaranteed acceptance.

The juror chooses from digital representations of up to three artworks, and also awards prizes for “best in show,” second and third place. A “Public’s Choice” award will be chosen by visitor ballots cast throughout the exhibition. The prize, a framed print of Frederic Remington’s 1887 painting “Small Oaks” will go to the winner.

The juror is Sharon H. J. Cheng, a New York Foundation for the Arts/ MARK09 artist originally from Taiwan, where she earned her degrees in arts. Later, she studied art conservation and architecture in the US. Since 2000, she has lived in Potsdam.

An artist who is not yet a museum member may join with their entry into the exhibit. The deadline for submission of digital images via email to lafo@fredericremington.org or on CD, entry form and payment is April 16. The exhibit opens with a reception on Saturday, May 23, and will remain on view through Sept. 27. Works in the exhibit may be offered for sale, with one third of the price benefiting the museum. For more information and a prospectus, contact lafo@fredericremington.org, or download the prospectus, or call 393-2425.
