Call For Work for "From Life"
A Juried Exhibition

We are seeking submissions for the exhibition “From Life”. The theme can be interpreted freely, but should include representations of the body or portraiture, or document human life. The emphasis of this show is on observational drawing and painting… ‘from life’.

Works should not exceed 36 inches in width. Each artist may submit up to three works. All work must be available for sale. Work should be delivered to Cannon Beach Gallery, 1064 S. Hemlock Street, Cannon Beach on February 23, 10am – 4pm, and artists should plan to pick up any unselected work the following day. Work should be exhibition ready and framed appropriately. Our preference is that work has hanging hardware and is wired. Work that is not exhibition ready will not be accepted.

The show will also feature selected works by the artist Henk Pander, who will be the jurer for this exhibition. The Dutch artist Henk Pander arrived in Portland in 1965 and has lived there ever since, creating works that challenge status quo modern art of the Pacific Northwest. Henk Pander’s works are in many collections, including those of the Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam), Museum Henriette Polak (Zutphen, The Netherlands), City of Amsterdam, City of Portland, Jet Propulsion Laboratory (Pasadena), Portland Art Museum, Frye Art Museum (Seattle), Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art (University of Oregon), and Hallie Ford Museum of Art (Willamette University), where a fifty-year retrospective exhibition of his work was shown in 2011. His public commissions are at Oregon State University, Oregon Public Safety Academy (Salem), Portland Center for the Visual Arts, and numerous other locations.

The exhibition will open with a reception on Saturday, February 27, 5pm – 7pm, and there will be a Sunday Morning light breakfast, with mimosas, the following day, at which Henk Pander has kindly agreed to discuss his work and take questions.
