Submit work for the FutureForward exhibition on international works of art and new design at BECA ICAD.

Information

BECA is an acronym for Bridge for Emerging Contemporary Art and the core belief system at the BECA Foundation is that “New art + new design fuels the best of what’s yet to come on this planet.” Some of you may know that the BECA Foundation is in the early development phase of BECA ICAD (International Center for Art + Design), the world’s first large scale exhibition facility dedicated to the exhibition of works by both emerging artists AND emerging designers.

From the submissions received, 4 to 8 artists and designers will be selected by BECA Foundation directors to participate in the group exhibition highlighting works that reveal an idea, message, contribution, warning or solution that if carried forward may profoundly impact the future - be it positively or negatively.

Exhibition Dates: May 1 - 29, 2010.
The exhibition will be held at BECA ICAD at 527 St. Joseph Street, New Orleans, LA.  The exhibition will also be made available online for those who are unable to attend in person.
