Deadline: 2 Apr 2021
Connections to the past and present include, but are not limited to, work that:
- Engages with personal or family history
- Examines the idea and form of the archive, or the ways in which historical objects and ideas are organized, categorized, and displayed
- Borrows from the history of art
- Challenges the dominant narrative of (art) history and questions what and who that history includes and excludes
With Cladogram: KMA International Juried Biennial, the KMA seeks to present a broad range of contemporary work created by artists based locally, regionally, and globally. In doing so, the Museum hopes to build networks of artists around the world.

About The Katonah Museum of Art
The Katonah Museum of Art, one of the most celebrated small museums in the country, was founded over 60 years ago by volunteers from local communities as an exhibition venue for fine arts. Nationally recognized, the KMA curates and hosts exhibitions, events, lectures, and workshops. The Learning Center serves audiences of all ages. Throughout the year, they host three to four major exhibitions, interlaced with smaller attractions, in a 10,000 square foot building designed by the late eminent architect, Edward Larrabee Barnes. Among a stand of magnificent Norwegian spruce trees, the Sculpture Garden provides refuge and visual pleasure. The Katonah Museum offers outdoor concerts, “artful” parties, international travels, and trips to other museums and private collections.

Testimonials
“I’m here for less than 4 weeks (I counted) and I have had at least a half a dozen inquiries and 1 sale. Guess how many sales I’ve had in 202? ZERO! That’s right, I had NO Sales last year.”
“Amazing website and much more amazing customer service. Very prompt and extremely courteous.”
“Art Show International’s Solo Exhibitions opened up a ton of opportunities for me. The icing on the cake was that I received a $200 cash from them for winning a prize at their competition. Highly recommended!!!”
