The director of the Visual Arts Museum (MAV), Hugo Musser, explained the new submission deadlines for works for the XIV Annual National Bicentennial Salon “Painting 2024”.
It is worth remembering that this is the 14th edition of this annual call, which seeks to promote the activity of national artists and, at the same time, expand the local museum's collection.
Musser first highlighted that “this administration has made the good decision to give continuity to the Salon, where artists from the country can submit their works in this contest,” which is why “we extended the deadline so that they can submit their works until August 22, at 12:00 AM.”
Then, the selection jury “will meet immediately the next day, the 23rd, and there will be a verdict that will be communicated personally to each of the emails of the participating artists,” the official anticipated.
Musser recalled that the spirit of the Salon is “to provide an overview of contemporary art, changing the discipline because it is rotating; it is done in painting, drawing, and engraving alternately every three years,” noting that the discipline chosen in 2024 is painting.
Such alternation “allows us to have a vision of the contemporaneity of Argentine art, which is no small thing, since the residents of Concordia can see it here, in their city,” concluded the MAV director.
