Form - New Open Call for Cupola Contemporary Art
Deadline: 03/03/2026City: Sheffield | Region: South Yorkshire | Country: United Kingdom | Karen Sherwood
Cupola is looking for artists to respond to the title of the exhibition Form. We are open to any proposals our only stipulation is all work should be for sale.
"Form" means the shape or structure of something, a type or kind, a document for information, a standard way of doing things, or a person's physical/mental condition; it can also be a verb meaning to create or come into being, like forming a shape or an organization.
Its meaning depends heavily on context, referring to visual appearance, a type (form of flu), a document (application form), performance (good form), or creation (to form a circle).
Form is a word with a wide range of meanings and is a word crucial to the creation of art. We are looking for a wide range of responses to the title from sculptural to print making, painting to ceramics we are open to a huge range of mediums.
All works must be for sale.
