World View: Landscape in Contemporary Art
- What: We are pleased to announce the Sun Gallery will host an exhibition entitled World View: Landscape in Contemporary Art. Thanks to Jacqueline Cooper for this great theme, which she conceives of as follows: "Landscape painting is a very broad term. Traditionally, it describes the depiction of natural scenery such as mountains, valleys, trees, rivers, and forests. It can also cover the representation of the urban environment and, more broadly speaking, landscape may act as a background for figurative work where the narrative of the completed artwork relies upon the interaction of the two. The Sun Gallery is interested in exploring as broad an interpretation of landscape as possible and is soliciting submissions from artists that work in all media and across genres.”
- Where: Sun Gallery
- When: April 24th to June 1, 2013
