2027 The Golden Mean Exhibition Submission

Ends on

The Golden Mean Exhibition Submission

Coconino Center for the Arts (CCA) is seeking submissions for a unique exhibition fundraiser designed to support both CCA and local artists, January 16 – February 13, 2027.

The Golden Mean—also known as the Golden Rectangle or the Golden Ratio—is dimensions set to 1:1.618. We see this represented in the Fibonacci Sequence, in a series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers: 1+1=2, 1+2=3, 2+3=5, 3+5=8, etc.

Artists are invited to donate up to three artworks that have dimensions aligned with the Golden Mean. We will also accept artwork with dimensions that are in close proximity to the golden ratio. You will find that these are commonplace, standard dimensions: 3 x 5, 5 x 7,12 x 18, 24 x 36, 32 x 48, etc. All artwork, including media such as sculpture and video, that roughly meets these dimensions will be accepted. Artwork content is open, and does NOT need to address the golden ratio in the subject-matter. There is no application fee for this exhibition.

How it works: All artworks will be priced at a starting bid of $100. Every piece sold at this initial bid will result in CCA receiving that amount to support exhibitions and programming at CCA. Subsequent bidding levels follow the Fibonacci Sequence, with artists receiving a relative increase percentage on each higher bid.
