The Valdosta National 2022 all-media juried competition<\/strong> opens at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, January 18, with a reception and awards ceremony.  The exhibition will run through Friday, February 4, and is free and open to the public. The selection process was highly competitive. 344 individual works of art by 136 adult artists from 39 states across the country were submitted for the Dedo Maranville Fine Arts Gallery\u2019s 34th<\/sup> annual showcase of contemporary visual art. Valdosta National 2022 judge Samuel Dunson invited 58 works by 58 artists from 30 states to be featured and to compete for $1,500 in awards, which will be announced at Tuesday\u2019s reception. The exhibited artworks show an excitingly diverse variety of media and artistic visions.  The show is united by strong social, political, and conceptual concerns as well as implied narrative undercurrents. There are many surprising aspects to the artwork that are delightfully unpredictable. The show is bold, colorful and strongly relevant to our times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juror & Judge<\/strong> Samuel Dunson <\/strong>is an award-winning artist and Professor of Art at Tennessee State University with an MFA in Painting from Savannah College of Art and Design (Presidential fellowship) and a BFA in Studio Art from Tennessee State University. His painting won First Place in the Valdosta National 2021. www.samueldunson.com<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
