CAM Biennial 2014 will open with a reception for all exhibiting artists and the public at Coos Art Museum on Friday, October 10, 2014 from 5pm until 7pm. Recognized as one of the Museum’s most diverse exhibitions the CAM Biennial features a wide range of media and styles. Paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, small sculptures, mixed media, fiber and textiles all created solely by Oregon artists, including many locals, will be on display. Both professional and amateur works are presented side-by-side along with works rarely seen in a public setting. Without the extensive curating or jurying process typical of most exhibitions, emerging artists in particular embrace this unique opportunity to exhibit at the Museum. Visit Coos Art Museum and be dazzled by the vast and varied talents of your friends and neighbors. CAM Biennial 2014 will be displayed throughout all six of Coos Art Museum’s Galleries filling the entire museum. As a highlight of CAM Biennial 2014, visitors to the Museum will be encouraged to vote for their favorite exhibited artwork. Winner of this “People’s Choice” award will be given a solo exhibition at CAM in 2015. Voting for a “People’s Choice” selection will continue during the exhibition and end at 4:00 pm on Saturday, December 6, 2014.
