"We not only nurture our sacred relationships through ritual, but we are nurtured by them as well. In ritual, we move, and we are moved." – Alison Leigh Lilly
'Ritual', Beautiful Bizarre Magazine's second curated exhibition at Haven Gallery in New York, brings together over 50 of the world's best two and three dimensional artists, whom have explored the theme 'Ritual' through their own unique styles, genres and mediums.
Life is embedded with Rituals. They nurture us and improve us. Rituals are an action or ceremony performed in a customary way. Be it religious or personal, rituals give our lives meaning. Without them we would be floating through life with nothing to tie us down, or to expand us to the people we can become.
'Ritual' will also showcase the work of the Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize 2019 winners, in each of the four Award categories: INPRNT Traditional Art Award, Stocksy United Photography Award, Sculpture Award, Digital Art Award and of course our overall 1st Prize Winner. As a leader and advocate for the arts, Beautiful Bizarre Magazine champions emerging and mid-career artists. In the 6 years since our launch, Beautiful Bizarre Magazine has proudly become a voice, a tribe, and a platform for creatives whose work doesn't always fit neatly into the traditional fine art "box". In keeping with our mission, the Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize seeks to inspire creatives from around the world to pursue a life and career in the arts, and to help careers grow through our exposure of their work.
The Winners of the 2019 Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize will also be presented their specially commissioned glass art Award sculptures at the special opening reception on 14 December.
The Beautiful Bizarre Magazine Co-Founders Danijela Krha Purssey and Richard Purssey are flying in from Australia to attend the opening, as are a number of the artists and Art Prize winners. We would love to see you there!
