INTERNATIONAL JURIED ART COMPETITION

Y O U - T U B E - I T *

The YOU-TUBE-IT art competition is designed to attract work which confronts global pressures of social, personal, and commercial conformity. For this reason, submissions are not bound to any underlying or overarching theme. Physical restrictions of the tube offer an opportunity for international artists to produce meaningful, original and thought provoking work within the confines of a standard shape. Artists are urged to test the outer limits of their imaginations, while searching for solutions and inspiration in the FedEx Tube’s physical boundaries. Original and unconventional approaches are encouraged, and the constraints of standard packaging are meant to draw out the creative spirit, in hopes of indicating something larger about today’s world.

* International Juried Art Competition YOU-TUBE-IT is not affiliated with or sponsored by Federal Express Corporation.
