CALL FOR ART
Location: Monterroso Gallery - 3911 Main St, Houston TX 77002 Juror: Matt Adams, VAA Houston, TX.
As part of our commitment to supporting emerging local artists in Houston, Monterroso Gallery is excited to announce its first call for entry, "Devo Amare David (Must Love David)." This juried exhibition invites artists to explore the transformative influence of the Italian/Florentine Renaissance. We seek contemporary creators who can engage with an era that introduced innovations in perspective, realism, and artistic expression, which remain foundational to art today. We are dedicated to providing an opportunity for Houston artists to showcase their work in our upcoming fall exhibition. We welcome your submissions until September 8th and look forward to your unique interpretations.
Our esteemed juror, Matt Adams, is a key figure in the Houston art community, known for his leadership in the Houston Visual Arts Alliance and curating impactful exhibits. His notable projects, such as a politically charged 2017 exhibit featured by CNN, demonstrate his ability to create compelling and relevant exhibitions. This is a great opportunity for Houston artists to showcase their work and engage with a significant period in art history.
