It is important to realize that the artists selected for this exhibition will only represent a mere fraction of the now global branches of vision that has its origins in the roots of Fantastic Realism. It is equally important to offer the public an opportunity to realize the past, present and continuing generations of these artists that share a common passion that inspires an enormous spectrum of uncommon visions.

Who:

Approximately 50 artists who are not already represented and in the Collection of the Phantasten Museum and working in the Fantastic genre’. Artists already exhibited by the museum will be incorporated and listed as being part of the exhibition “UNCOMMON VISIONS”. The artists selected will have studied under one of the founding members of The Vienna School of Fantastic Realism and/or under one of the next generation of Fantastics such as Prof Rubinov Jacobson, Martina Hoffman and Robert Venosa, Michael Fuchs, Wolfgang Manner or Brigid Marlin. There may ALSO be artists submittiing who have had a long standing association to the genre’. NOTE: Again; artists already represented in the museum’s collection need not submit work as their work will be part of this exhibition and integrated in the presentation. Totally unknown and young artists are strongly encouraged to submit.

PUBLIC CALL FOR ARTISTS: The curator and director of the museum will consider a very selective number of additional artists who have not had a direct association to school of Fantastic Realism but have a body of work that is of a Fantastic, Visionary or Surreal nature.
