we’re curating an open call for art on NYC billboards with SaveArtSpace
SaveArtSpace & Paradice Palase are proud to present Don’t Ask, Just Manifest, a public art exhibition on billboard ad space in New York City starting August 12, 2024, curated by PARADICE PALASE founders Lauren Hirshfield and Kat Ryals.
Our curatorial prompt:
What is your dream reality? What supercharges your creative flow every day? PARADICE PALASE is seeking artworks that respond to the theme of “real-topia”. Our platform was founded on a dream for more transparency and clarity for artists in the contemporary art ecosystem. This was our utopia, and we’re growing closer to it every day with our digital membership network. So, we are in turn seeking artworks that hypothesize on, propose, manifest, or proliferate your own profound wishes that you dare ask of the universe. From natural reclamation to daring ecological visions to playful celebrations - what uncanny and incredible future(s) do you seek through your work?
We met #SaveArtSpace founder Travis during Miami Basel Week at our @newartdealers booth, swapped stories, and realized we have a shared mission to create accessible paths to success for artists. Et voila! A partnership was born ⭐
