500 Enameled Objects
Juror: Sarah Perkins
Lark Books seeks images to publish in a juried collection of international studio jewelry and metal art to be released in Spring 2009.
Approximately 420 pages in length, the book will be an image-driven international collection of contemporary enamel art and jewelry design. We hope 500 Enameled Objects will inspire artists and art enthusiasts alike by documenting the current and evolving vitality of the medium. All jewelry forms will be considered, as will hollowware, vessels, sculptures, wall art, and installations. Diverse designs, materials, and techniques are desired, from the traditional to the avant-garde. We accept high-quality transparencies, slides, and digital images.
No entry fee is required.
Artists whose work is selected for inclusion will receive full acknowledgment within the book, a complimentary copy, and discounts on the purchase of books. Artists retain copyright of their work.
Submissions must be postmarked by March 14.
Guidelines and entry forms are now available.
