Eine Erkundung von Dunkelheit und Schatten

L7 Gallery, based in Bellingham, Washington, invites international artists to submit works that explore the many meanings of darkness and shadow for an online juried exhibition. The call references cultural and literary reflections on darkness, from Tanizaki’s In Praise of Shadows to artistic traditions that value muted tones. Submissions are reviewed by juror Jesse Firestone, a curator with extensive experience in experimental exhibition-making. The exhibition will run from November 20 to December 31, 2026, and the first‑place winner receives a $300 award. The call is open to artists of all disciplines within fine arts, with no specific age or residency restrictions, and entry requires a $30 fee. Selected works will be displayed in L7 Gallery’s online platform, providing global visibility. Applications are submitted through the CaFÉ portal linked from the entry page.
