CALL FOR ENTRIES:  WARMTH OF LIGHT, CHILL OF NIGHT

Call for Entries

The Susquehanna Art Museum’s DŌSHI Gallery is seeking entries for a juried show of members’ works of art. The exhibition will be held in the Whitaker Center from Saturday, June 22 – Thursday, August 22, 2013. Membership to the Susquehanna Art Museum is required for submission.

 

Title:  Warmth of Light, Chill of Night

During the June 21st summer solstice, the sun will reach the highest point in the sky.  This will be our longest period of daylight during the year.  As winter fades and we move into spring, our environment will change significantly.  We will have longer days and the sun will warm the earth.  How will the change in season alter what we see and feel around us?  Artists are asked to consider the effects of sunlight and seasons on color, atmosphere, shadow and other artistic elements.

DŌSHI Gallery- Celebrating 40 years

Celebrating 40 years!

The DŌSHI Center for Contemporary Art, founded by Maya Schock in Harrisburg in 1972, was incorporated into the operations of the Susquehanna Art Museum in 1997. In spirit with the mission of the original DŌSHI Center (named for a Japanese word meaning “brotherhood”), the DŌSHI Gallery provides a venue for emerging and established Pennsylvania artists to exhibit their work, explore new ideas, and develop a dialogue with the Museum and the community.

The DŌSHI Gallery features about ten exhibits per year. All of the works exhibited are chosen by a panel of jurors, and a majority of the works on display are available for purchase.

Invitations for juried thematic group exhibits are sent periodically to members, so if you are interested in them, become a Museum member today!
