4th Biennial National Juried Exhibition: Heat
4th BIENNIAL NATIONAL JURIED EXHIBITION
Inspired by the book, The Heat Will Kill You First by Jeff Goodell
“When HEAT comes, it’s invisible. It doesn’t bend tree branches or blow hair across your face to let you know it’s arrived…The sun feels like the barrel of a gun pointed at you.”
- Jeff Goodell, The Heat Will Kill You First
For this exhibition artists were asked to submit artworks that relate to the first order threat and prime mover of all other impacts of our climate crisis - HEAT. The works selected explore the concept of ‘heat’ as it relates to a warming planet: how it impacts our environment, bodies, lifestyles, landscapes and structures. The year 2023 was the warmest year since global records began in 1850. In the future will we look back and remark how cool it was in 2023? Where do we go from here? How do we keep our cool? What do we lose if we fail?
- Skip Snow, Katy Lemle






Skin: The Sexy Art Show
The concept for SKIN came after three friends had attended a major art show in Tampa. They then came to realize that the area needs more of this kind of art and the "appreciate art and make it a party" concept was exactly what they were looking for. Appreciating that the Tampa Bay area (and ALL of Florida for that matter) has exceptionally talented artists, the SKIN idea was born. SKIN provides the best in art and entertainment, showing the "sexy" side of the art forms while presenting world class entertainers. SKIN welcomes all erotic artists and their disciplines to display, provoke and excite our audiences. Our goal is to make the annual Fine Art Showcase event a place where you can always find art, acceptance, and fun!
