Dr. Carmela Loiacono Art Historian & Curator is delighted to announce the selection for the collective exhibition CREACTION, that will be presented in Matera at Cultural Hypogeum Lega Navale Italiana - Sezione Matera Magna Grecia, from April 15 to May 4, 2025.
The concept
“Every piece of art is the fruit of human expression and the creativity of the individual artist.”
Creativity can be defined as the result of complementarities, between deduction and intuition, between reason and imagination, between emotion and reflection, between divergent thinking (producing many different possible ideas and solutions) and convergent thinking (reaching a single, correct answer to a problem).
Creativity arises above all from the physical and mental action that the artist performs during the artistic process.
Every artist creates his or her works by following emotions, moods and life experiences, and through the application of techniques, shapes, colours, lights, words and sounds, manages to convey an emotional message that can be understood and interpreted directly or indirectly by the observer. This emotional connection can arouse a range of emotions and feelings involving those who relate to art.
Therefore, artists are invited to reflect on the idea of creativity, based on the relationship between the external world and their own inner world, allowing themselves to be inspired by a dualism made up of differences and assonances that create the action necessary to realise new possible horizons.
The selection is open to a single artist or a collective of artists in these following categories: Painting, Photography, Sculpture, Illustration, Video art and Performance art.
To take part in the selection, send your works’ submissions with a CV/biography, some still images (for video art), links to videos/films/performances and pictures via e-mail to carmelaloiacono.arthistorian@gmail.com
The deadline for submitting the proposal is March 29, 2025.
Artists interested in taking part in the events are free to be sponsored and supported by institutions, organizations, governments and their representatives; the logos of their sponsors will be included in all the communication (digital and print) of the events.
The submission proposal is free. The participation in the exhibition requires an entry fee ONLY for selected artists, that will be communicated after the selection based on the works selected.
The participation fee will be paid ONLY upon selection.
Application Deadline:2025-03-29
