Sound & Vision: Art Inspired by Music
Arts Mid-Hudson (AMH) invites artists to submit work for our upcoming exhibition, Sound & Vision: Art Inspired by Music, opening September 18th. This exhibition will explore the powerful connection between sound and visual art, seeking pieces inspired by the rhythms, melodies, and emotions that music evokes. We encourage artists to translate their musical influences into visual forms, whether abstract or representational and across all mediums. Whether it’s a symphony, a song, or a soundscape, we welcome art that captures the essence and energy of music in new and imaginative ways.
Submission Requirements:
- All artistic disciplines are eligible for submission including, but not limited to, visual, performing, written, digital and video, traditional, and experimental mediums.
- Proposals for performance-based mediums are welcome. After you submit your proposal, AMH staff will reach out to set up a consultation to determine if the proposal can be accommodated.
- We ask for a minimum of two submissions for 2-D, 3-D, and written work.
- 2-D artwork may be no smaller than 8” x 8” and no larger than 36” x 48” on either side.
- 3-D artwork may not exceed 17 inches in any dimension.
- Written works must fit on one 8 ½ x 11 page at 12pt font and will be printed by AMH and mounted on foam core.
- Sculptures to be displayed on a podium will be accepted on a first come first serve basis until no more space is available. Sculptures may not exceed 15 inches in any dimension.
- Video and digital work, if accepted, will be displayed on a monitor in our gallery.
- All submissions must be suitable to be hung in a public gallery at the discretion of Arts Mid-Hudson.
- Arts Mid-Hudson will take every caution with the artwork. The artist understands that Arts Mid-Hudson does not provide insurance for artwork and agrees to exhibit the work with this stipulation.
- The prices listed reflect retail pricing. If artwork is sold, Arts Mid-Hudson will receive a 25% commission.
