This May at Memento Mori Gallery & Tattoo, we will be hosting “Take A Look, It’s In A Book”, our literary themed art show. That means artwork inspired by books or literature, as well as book art! And because this is Memento Mori Gallery, we always invite the outsider, the lowbrow, and the macabre.

Memento Mori Gallery & Tattoo is a lowbrow/outsider contemporary art gallery located in the 40West Arts District, part of the art walk circuit, and in the same shopping center as Casa Bonita. We get good foot traffic on First Fridays. First Friday opening reception will include music and refreshments.

Application Requirements

2D & 3D book or literature themed artwork. Will also accept book art. Piece must be ready to hang or display physically (will not display digital artwork unless it is printed and framed/mounted properly). $20 entry fee per piece, can submit up to 2 pieces. Artwork must be for sale, with 40% of sale going to gallery. "Ready to Hang" means hanging hardware is already attached - plain canvas without hanging wire is not "ready to hang". We will reject anything not ready to hang at drop off. Hanging wire preferred, no adhesive mounts, and must be able to hang from a hook or nail. We will also not accept any photographic work that depicts another artist’s artwork without express permission from the artist to show and sell the photograph; this includes street art.

Eligibility Criteria

Elgibility: All artists in the US.
