​
All entries for PILLAR must be original under 12 x 12 in. hand-pulled works of art and utilize a form of traditional printmaking technique that may include digital elements but only within the greater work. Techniques may include monotype and monoprint, screen printing, etching, engraving, drypoint, collagraph, lithography, woodcut and other relief techniques. Work should be hang ready and may be hung with magnets if provided by artist.

All subject matter themes are welcome, with special consideration given to works that highlight rural elements or techniques, aligning with the farm-to-table environment we aim to cultivate. Priority will be given to pieces that feature natural elements such as flora, fauna, landscapes, or other locally inspired influences.

PILLAR HISTORY
This exhibition is an extension of our organization and creation of the NANO Series at PILLAR Gallery + Projects and our previous SALON 2021 and SALON 2022 series at Kimball Jenkins School of Art. In 2021, we proposed and organized an open call in collaboration with Kimball Jenkins School of Art in Concord, NH. The exhibitions collectively featured over 400 artists. The first year included a co-current exhibition with Kelley Stelling Contemporary. In 2022, we were excited to invite and collaborate with Katzman Contemporary in their organization and curation of Concordia, a co-current group exhibition.
​NANO is an extension of our maximalist, inclusive approach to curation with a broader open call.​ We want to ensure there are no barriers for submission. If you need the submission fee waived for our open call you can email us here.
