Color/Form
Call for sculpture submissions for Color/Form at the Robert T. Wright Community Gallery of Art at the College of Lake County in Grayslake, IL
“Color is a power which directly influences the soul.” — Wassily Kandinsky
No other element impacts aesthetics so directly and urgently as color. Artists who combine color with structure understand the boundless and captivating energy of this synthesis. Using color to evoke a mood is essential in their practice and message. Color/Form’s purpose is to compile creations that celebrate color and form interpreted in three dimensions.
If selected for the exhibition, artists must be a current CSI member or sign-up for membership. www.chicagosculpture.org/become-a-member An artist statement will be required for the accepted piece.
