3 Unusual Opportunities for Artists

  • Sculpture needed; St. Joseph Mercy Oakland
In the main lobby near the elevators is an area where a piece of sculpture is designed to be placed in a planter. We are looking for an original work selling for $10,000 that can complement a space approximately three feet in diameter and five feet tall. It should represent sacred journey and can include elements of community and spirituality, as well as serving as an iconic piece that supports the wayfinding.

Sculpture must be able to be touched and created out of metal, stone, wood, concrete, granite, mosaic, or bronze. Deadline: 6.28.13. Contact Pam Nickell, Arts Coordinator at nickell@aesthetics.net
  • The cultural community is getting excited as Grand Rapids' fabulous ARTPrize ramps up for 2013. Think you've got what it takes to win BIG bucks? Many people who participate in art fairs have taken up the challenge and joined this fabulous exhibition. In fact, one of the biggest winners was a man who drew caricatures in the mall at Christmas. So, it could be you!

ArtPrize is the world's largest art competition.

In 2012 ArtPrize awarded $560,000 in prizes. $360,000 awarded by public vote, $200,000 awarded by a select group of art experts. Here are some of the entries so far: http://www.artprize.org/entries
