Color Field: Red

Overview

dodomu gallery is announcing an open call for Color Field: Red. This exhibition invites artists to explore the power, complexity, and visual impact of red – a color that can command attention, evoke emotion, and transform a composition. The exhibition will run from December 3 - January 21, 2027 on our website.

Theme: Color Field: Red

Red is among the earliest colors used in human art – a color with a history as visceral as it is enduring. Across cultures and centuries, red has been associated with passion, desire, energy, and power, while also signaling danger, anger, urgency, and intensity. Color Field: Red explores the expressive possibilities of this powerful hue, inviting artists to consider red not simply as a color, but as a force. From deep crimson and burgundy to scarlet, vermilion, and vibrant cherry, the exhibition celebrates the full spectrum of red and the emotions, associations, and narratives it can inspire. Works may feature red as a dominant visual presence or use it as a striking focal point within a larger composition.
