Animals

About the Open Call

Since humans first painted animals on cave walls, artists have explored our complex relationship with the creatures that share our world. This juried exhibition from Site:Brooklyn invites contemporary artists to examine the multifaceted role animals play in art and culture. We are seeking work that explores personal connections with animals, how animal materials have shaped artistic traditions, or how creatures serve as symbols in storytelling and political commentary. We welcome imaginative interpretations that present animals through fantasy, myth, or allegorical representation. Whether your work celebrates, critiques, or simply observes our relationship with the animal kingdom, Animals seeks to show how zoological subjects continue to inspire and challenge artists through painting, sculpture, photography, mixed media, and beyond.
