These upside down glasses mean the entry is not accepted? 🙂
No. There is a little hole in the bottom of the cup. If a judge likes a piece, they put a bean in the cup. Because the hole is so small, the judges can not see if there are any other beans in the cup. At the end, they lift the cup, and if it has enough beans, it is accepted.
Man, I don't know how the judges get through this process every year. It just seems like an information overload! Excited to see the results!
It really is. After a while, you stop thinking too cerebrally about the art, and you get into this weird groove where you begin to really trust your gut reaction to a piece.
But…where does it all get stored after the judging? I'd kill for a collection of prints like that. 😛
So Dan, with 5 jurors, if you are fortunate enough to get 3 beans, you are in?
I think it varies from year to year. Sometimes if the jury is stingy, 3 may get you in. If they are generous, it may take 4 or even all 5 to get in. It comes down to averages.
“A bean ballet! Spinning in air with their delicious perfection, the beans pirouette in slow motion, they somersault in slow motion. Some of them spin clockwise, some counter-clockwise, so they'll appear to be moving towards each other… until… they drop into a cup with a hole in the bottom…”
some things never change
Just a note: We took down the award finalist video temporarily because one of the pieces in the Concept Art category needed to go back under wraps for a little while due to a date change for the project. It is still a contender, we just can't show it at the moment under the new circumstances. We'll have a reedited video up ASAP.
Alas, always a bride's maid. Maybe next year.
