Theme/Accepted Media: Through our jurors, Kenneth Hutter and Jennifer Elhardt, appraisal expertise Is It Fine Art?  Does It Matter will explore artistic merit vs. market value in works created outside the traditional canon of “Fine Art”.  The exhibition aims to capture works that challenge tradition, and/or combine non-traditional, and/or commercial media through form, content, or purpose.

All work must be suitably finished and professionally presented.
