INT'L All Media Call For Entries

intl-am22_logo.jpg

The Juried Exhibitions at Minot State University have been through numerous changes. In 1969, the National Print and Drawing Show held its first call for entries. The 1980s brought the National Works on Paper Exhibition to artists across the USA. A look forward to the new millennium in the 1990s re-titled the exhibitions to Americas 2000 with the inaugural All Media exhibition held in 1993. Now, to better represent our multi-country appeal and entrants, we introduce INT'L All Media 2022. In this 28th year, it is our honor to invite you to share your works and your passion for art from across the world.

JUROR: Sarah JusticeGreat Falls, MT – sarahjusticefineart.com

SARAH JUSTICE has 25 years’ experience in the arts. She is an artist and museum administrator as the Executive Director of Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art in Great Falls, Montana. Known for her work as a figurative sculptor, her road to that path varied beginning with drawing, photography, and painting. Her work focuses on aspects of the human condition, digging deeply into the emotional and psychological realms of human consciousness throughout time and intertwining personal experiences that are also universal for many women. The masculine is not left out of her work as it plays an instrumental role in the development of the psyche. The history of classical sculpture forms an important foundation for her topics surrounding beauty and the abject and her use of symbolism points to the timeless collective. Materials play an important role in the making of her work. Justice’s preferred medium for sculpting is clay, but she uses non-traditional materials for final finishes. Drawing and painting inform her sculptural work by providing another voice and acts as a meditative practice in her everyday life.

Justice earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Georgia State University in Atlanta, Georgia, and her Master of Fine Arts from University of Montana in Missoula. Her work has been exhibited throughout the United States, featured in multiple publications such as 500 Figures in Clay and has won numerous awards based on artistic merit.
