Solo Show by Kylo-Patrick Hart

We are happy to announce that Kylo-Patrick Hart, our Solo Show winner from "Summer Feels" premiers his show today and the show runs from August 1 to 31st.

You can view the show on our Website and in our Virtual Gallery.

Kylo-Patrick Hart is an award-winning photographer and chair of the Department of Film, Television, and Digital Media at Texas Christian University (Fort Worth, Texas, USA). He received his formal training in digital media arts while a student at the University of Michigan and Wayne State University, with additional instruction provided by offerings of the Maine Media Workshops and Santa Fe Workshops. His photographs have been exhibited in numerous cities throughout the United States and in several countries abroad.

"Photography has been my passion since early childhood. My motivation is to discover and capture the beauty, even when it is not always readily self-evident, that surrounds us continuously in all areas of our everyday lives. I believe the finest images are those that are serious yet playful, aesthetically appealing yet a bit quirky. As both an artist and an admirer, my favorite photographs tend to be ones whose contents speak loudly for themselves — even when it is not immediately clear exactly what they are saying."

Congratulations Kylo-Patrick and please enjoy his show everyone!

September Online Group Show "Influence"!

AsProbably the most common question artists get asked is: “What inspired you to make this artwork?“.

Throughout history artists have been inspired by their experiences, the environment around them, their culture, politics, and imagination. As the concept of art and creating art developed over time, artists began to be inspired by other artists and their art styles.

Each artist has their own individual perspective, style, and creative vision resulting in art that is deeply personal to them.

So we can conclude that an artist’s influence is as subjective as the art itself.

In September we celebrate our 1 year anniversary and in our group show ”Influence” we want to showcase artworks depicting things that have influenced you and your art.

We welcome artworks from all mediums of visual art, except AI-created art, and video/film.

★ Digital entries must be received by August 28th, 2023 before 11:59 pm Eastern Standard Time.

★ Notification of acceptance will be sent by email by August 31st.

★ The show will premiere on September 1st and end on September 30th.

AWARDS:

All Artists participating in the online group show will be featured on our Website and Virtual Gallery platform. All artists will be awarded an HMVC Gallery New York certificate of participation. A video clip of “Influence” featuring all participating artists’ artworks will be screened on a jumbotron in New York City’s famous Times Square every Saturday in September.

We are delighted to announce that we will be giving cash prizes to two talented artists!

Best of show winner: $150

Second place winner: $100

Third place winner: Online Solo Show

★ The winners of Best of Show and Second Place need to have a working PayPal account to receive their prize money. If the winner of the cash prize fails to provide HMVC Gallery New York with a working PayPal account, the winner will be forfeited and HMVC will be entitled to select another winner. The prize will be sent to the winner within 14 days of responding to HMVC.

★ The Third Place winner will have their own online Solo Show at HMVC Gallery New York and the show will run for a month. The Solo Show winner will also receive a HMVC Gallery New York solo certificate recognizing their achievement.

BIRTHDAY DISCOUNT:

The Submission fee is $40 $30 for 3 images and it is non-refundable and does not guarantee acceptance.

HMVC Gallery New York is now offering you the opportunity to have your own solo show on our ArtPlacer virtual platform for a month.
