Open Call International Artistic Competition on the theme: The Flight of the Holy Family into Egypt: Classical and Contemporary Visual Approaches
Open call for international artists
The Interparliamentary Assembly on Orthodoxy (IAO) hereby announces its Second International Visual Arts Competition, entitled: “The Flight of the Holy Family into Egypt: Classical and Contemporary Visual Approaches.
The competition aims to bring to light artistic interpretations of the Sacred Journey, which—whether situated within or beyond its specific historical and geographical context—approach both the spiritual dimensions and the timeless, profoundly human aspects of this event.
Within the framework of the competition, works may be submitted that either directly depict the event itself or, based on the central theme, highlight the concepts of family, motherhood, and childhood, the need for the protection of children, as well as issues of hospitality, the protection of strangers, and respect for otherness.
