Kaddatz Galleries invites work inspired by Charles Beck
FERGUS FALLS, MN – The Kaddatz Galleries is inviting artists to participate in an exhibit honoring the late Charles Beck from Nov. 22, 2017 to Jan. 5, 2018. Charles Beck, one of the most recognized Minnesota artists, died in September.
He was influenced by the landscape of Otter Tail County and the Scandinavian culture and values in which he grew up. He shared his unique yet identifiable interpretation of the landscape and nature of this region. Former students and other regional artists are invited to submit work that has been influenced or inspired by Beck’s artwork or character.
SUBMISSION RULES AND REQUIREMENTS:

- Artists are responsible for the transportation of work to and from the gallery, including any shipping costs.
- All work must be delivered to the gallery by Saturday, Nov. 18.

The Gallery will not provide hanging or support materials for works. The curator reserves the right to refuse any work that cannot be properly displayed.
- All works must be picked up by Saturday, Jan. 6. Any works left at the Gallery after that date will become property of the Kaddatz Galleries.
- There will be a reception on Saturday, Dec. 2, 2-4 p.m. for participating artists.
