Visionary Projects and Anderson Contemporary Presents
It’s Time to Slow Down
A Group Exhibition
180 Maiden Lane, New York, NY
June 20 - August 13
DEADLINE EXTENDED
WEDNESDAY MAY 15, 11:59pm EST
For artists in the US and Canada.
We are excited to announce our upcoming exhibition in collaboration with Anderson Contemporary, located in the heart of the historic Seaport district— in downtown Manhattan.
This will be an 8-week exhibition bringing together artists that highlight the collective need to slow down. Living in a world of instant gratification and perpetual consumption, we are inspiring a dialogue around what it could look like if we shifted the narrative to focus on mindful interactions. For this collection, we are seeking artwork that illustrates unique perspectives of what it means to dial back our current societal normalities. This may be art that commands a more meditative call to action — to pause, think, reflect and honor the simple pleasures of daily life. These pieces might include qualities that supersede the confines of the canvas.
This show will be complimentary to the unique space of Anderson Contemporary at 180 Maiden Lane — a bright, airy and open gallery amongst the skyscrapers lining the Financial District.
We are looking for paintings of all mediums, photography and ALL wall-based art.
