Call to artist: The Human Condition

The Human Condition

Call to artist:

Show Date: August 22- September 27, 2008


C. Emerson Fine Arts -909 Central Avenue - St. Petersburg, Florida

Existence is momentary in the grand scheme of reality.

Life is ever changing.

Some cling to a safe secure existence fearing and loathing. Some dance with brilliance and grace.

Life for some is gifted and privileged, others starve and go without.

Genetic engineering, prolonged existence or cures for the once incurable… What does this mean for humans? Is it about quality or quantity of life? Can our planet sustain the expanding population? What will the outcome eventually create environmentally, socially and existentially?

Are we all connected or is it every man for themselves? What are the societal implications of both?

Is there vulnerability or bravado?

Where lies the beauty and to what standard? Who sets the standard of beauty?

Love, sex and interpersonal relationships, family structure…

Psychosis, pathos and war…

Physical form and function

Evolution or Faith Based Creation Theory

And how does spirituality play into religion?

What do humans value and why?

What is the human condition?

Conceptual Reaction to the Human Condition (not limited to any of the above topics)

All Media

All work will be new work, created specifically for this exhibition, and never shown previously.
