OPEN CALL TO THE PUBLIC! Take a closer look into the world of ‘AbstRacT - the hidden synchrony’ from the collections of the Huberte Goote and Rupert Art Foundations. What remains hidden in nature when observed with the naked eye, and what happens when we zoom into a minuscule detail? The Rupert Museum calls on all creatives from any discipline to imagine and create their interpretation / response to the exhibition. Some key themes may relate to; human influence on the natural world, and its interactions with fire, chemicals, and water, the hidden forms, shapes and colour of abstraction. Think about what other links you can find when creating your response. Head to https://lnkd.in/dXmhzqhM for more information. Image 1: Detail of: 'Daeraad,' 1963.
