ABOUT THE JUROR
Karen Kettering Dimit, artist and curator, co-founded the LIC Arts Open, a multi-day arts festival in Long Island City, Queens, seven years ago, which is now a twice-a-year event. She has juried and curated many exhibitions for the festival, most recently, UPSTANDERS!!!, an exhibition featuring diverse artists who channel their social and political activism into their art practice. Other themed shows Ms. Dimit has curated in NYC include IDLE HANDS, which highlighted intellectual rigor combined with craft-based process fine art, Street Photography, and numerous site-specific pop-up shows of individual artists. She also curated a large exhibition of mosaic artists, “TERRA INCOGNITA: Mosaic Explorations”, at The Gallery at Penn College. Ms. Dimit was the Chair of the Sculpture Division at the Pen and Brush for many years, curating shows and jurying new members. Web: www.kkdimit.com
