Submissions are open for Color War, our summer group exhibition at 47 Bergen Street.

Deadline Sunday June 9, 11:59pm

Color War curated by the Recession Art staff, is now open for submissions.

To lighten and brighten up the festive season of summer, Recession Art will mount the exhibition Color War, a show to celebrate the joy and possibility of color in art. We’re putting a challenge to artists to show us the most rich, vivid, and vibrant artwork possible. We’ll be looking for works that put the summer sun to shame, bringing the heat into the gallery and forcing us to keep our sunglasses on indoors.

This exhibition will be limited to flat work, with a maximum dimension of 24 x 24 inches and preferably smaller. All submitted works must be ready to hang on the wall, with a focus on works on paper, canvas, or wood. All works must be available for sale and be less than $500.

Let the battle begin!

Color War will be held July 11 – August 9 at the Recession Art gallery (47 Bergen Street in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn).

Artists are responsible for delivering their work the week of July 8th and for picking up their work the week of August 12th.

Recession Art takes a 50% commission on all art sold at our shows or through our contacts.

No single work of art can be priced over $500.

Our submission fee is $30. 100% of this income goes toward the space rental for Color War.
