“Literature in art” can refer to the practice of creating art based on literary works (e.g., a painting depicting a scene from a novel) or the understanding of literature itself as an art form. In the latter case, literature is seen as art because writers use language creatively to express ideas, evoke emotions, and create imaginary worlds, akin to how painters use color or musicians use sound.

The Lost Pines Art Center has an open call for artwork for this show

All artists, 2D and 3D (sculptural) are welcome to submit works for consideration. Please see the guidelines in the application.
All styles are welcome (realism to abstract), where the focus is on literary works.
