WHERE: Colligo Studio, 1416 Broadway Street, Ste 01, Fresno, CA 93721
~
Central Valley artists are invited to share their most horrific artwork at Colligo Studio. "Cute" creations are welcome as long as it is Halloween-related (funny, pumpkins, candles, etc).
Artwork must have been completed within the past 2 years ( 2009-2011) and can be entered even if it was previously exhibited or/and awarded.
Only original work (no printed material) can be submitted.

One-of-a-kind small sculptures, jewelry, clothing, and merchandise are welcome, no bigger than 20” x 20”. No mass production or retail items.
No photographs.
Even if you used reference pictures the artwork must have been created by you only. For example, you can turn “American Gothic” into a scary painting, but cannot simply copy the movie poster of “A nightmare on Elm Street 3”. You cannot just duplicate an action figure from a movie but sculpt your own version of a character. Please respect the creator’s work and copyrights law!
Artwork must be scary or horrific but not offensive, aggressive, degrading, or disgracing (include but not limited to gore, racism, anti-Semitism, slavery, pornography, pedophily, sadomasochism, etc.)
Up to 5 pieces per artists. Due to space limitation, Colligo Studio has the final decision about accepting or not your work and reserves the right to display less than 5 pieces.
