Eligibility:
International Open Call for entries addressed to visual artists for their participation in a curated artshow / exhibition of contemporary watercolor art organized in Athens. The exhibition is part of the COLOR IN WATER series of events to showcase artists using these media of expression, and will include artists from around the world showcasing the potential of the medium today.
The official languages of the exhibition are Greek and English, and a commemorative catalog-book will be issued in digital format in both languages. The exhibition will also be available internationally online through the ARTgrID platform.
Eligibility: Accepted artworks can include watermedia paintings on paper (watercolor, watermedia ink, watercolor pencils, powders, natural water-soluble dyes, as well as alternative media such as tea, coffee, etc.).
Theme & Style of Artworks: The exhibition will accept original artworks of any style and artistic processing, representational or abstract, expressionism, symbolism, abstraction, or any other choice that can dialogue with the theme, allowing the creator to choose the topic.
Conceptual Framework: The most common and well-known concept of the word "epoch" refers to the four seasons of the year: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter. However, it can also refer to a historical period with distinct characteristics, cultural trends, or socio-political conditions - for example, we speak of the "Bronze Age" or the "Enlightenment Era." Similarly, it is included in more contemporary expressions referring to any period characterized by common situations, such as the "Internet Age" or the "Era of Globalization." Additionally, it can be used on a more personal level, where the "youth era" or "maturity era" is referred to, while in everyday language, a more abstract dimension is added, referring to a moment that has special significance, such as in the phrase "the era of great changes." The word "epoch" comes from the ancient Greek verb "ἐπέχειν" (epechein), which means literally "to hold upon," "to restrain," or "to suspend," carrying the meaning of suspension or cessation, with different meanings depending on the context. For example, in Stoic philosophy, the "Epoché" was associated with the suspension of judgment or opinion, a central concept for the exercise of self-restraint. From the Stoics, it passed the baton in modern times to Husserl's theory of phenomenology, "Epoché" - a process - according to this theory - aiming at suspending prejudice: it is the technique by which the subject avoids the automatic acceptance of external phenomena as objective truth, facing reality from a more impartial perspective. The process of Epoché aims to free the individual from prejudice and pave the way for a deeper and more authentic understanding of human experience.
