You might have read elsewhere that a few of us are keen to organise and exhibition to show of our work. Currently most of the people involved are based in Adelaide which means that we might be able to get cheap access to galleries and advertising through the SALA (South Australian Living Artists) festival. However, this is only for South Australian artists. As DAF is an international community we don't want to exclude any of our members from the chance to exhibit their work in public. So if you are keen to show of your work at some stage down the track, let us know here. [Link to www.3dprevis.com]
definitely. i tend to feel a bit left-out when you aussies are discussing your DAF exhibition plans. not that i have any real work i consider exhibition-worthy as of now, but at some point in time, i will, and some forum (not online, i mean literal "forum" = platform) for that will be great.

Yeh, I didn't want to leave anyone out but if we can't get enough interest we might just go ahead on the South Australian exhibition and hold off on an all encompassing DAF exhibition until we've got more interest. So far we've only had interest from three people. Anyone else?[Link to www.3dprevis.com]
as i already said, you can count on m,. but i don't know what is worth showing in my portfolio, it's most arch stuff.

If you have something that suits a visual arts context then by all means your welcome to show. if you haven't got anything don't stress cos if this ends up working out then we might have another one, and everyone will have more notice. [Link to jasminekurda.carbonmade.com]
well thats where the hard part begins - the line between design and 'art'. most art these days have some sort of underlying context - exploring themes, a technique, or viewer reaction/participation. if it is a 'just for fun' render, which obviously portrays a certain mood, how can you push your skills/program further by expanding on the mood? im not trying to tell you what you can and can't do, but if you are going to present your work in the context of an 'exhibition' and 'visual art' then you have to provide a context for the viewer! otherwise its nothing more than design - which is an altogether different arena of expertise...

It's an interesting point you make Jasikk, I have to admit that most of the stuff I've done would probably be considered more design than art. That might be something I should remedy in the future.[Link to www.3dprevis.com]
LoL yeah 3 years of art school kind of drills it into you... that and people in general are ignorant about the work/detail/attention/foresight required for 3d (or digital) work, and expect some sort of 'story' or 'meaning' .... you know, those pretentious types [Link to jasminekurda.carbonmade.com]
I think that an exhibition of digital art could include design work. character designs, even web site design could be considered by an audience in the context of a gallery. But I guess what it comes down to is the exhibition as a whole. Theres a whole art to exhibition curation. what pieces of art work well together as a whole. The viewers overall experience as they move through the gallery space etc.. But I'd say that anything people submit should be what they consider to be their best work. Something you rendered as a test or just through together for fun is sort of trivial and could make the overall exhibition feel a bit disparate or discordant.
