The Chateau Gallery
A Châteauesque contemporary art gallery and studio based in the heart of the Historic Old Louisville Preservation District
The Chateau Gallery is a contemporary hybrid art and studio loosely based in historic Old Louisville. The building's unique Châteauesque Victorian architecture lends credence to the gallery's name, known informally as “TCG.” TCG's narrative is as compelling as the space housed within its walls. The original building, built on the tailwind of the Southern Exhibition, is one of the first Gilded Age mansions built on Third Street's Millionaire's Row. Throughout its many lives, the monolithic building served as the estate of a tobacco baron, a funeral home, The Kentucky College of Barbering, an unlicensed child care center, a "drug dealer's palace," and a law office.
TCG is an avant-garde goliath of brick and mortar, wooden beams, and traditional white gallery walls — a constant construction project occupying a time and place between the antique and the contemporary. TCG’s mission is to use our platform to transcend borders and broadcast multi-faceted viewpoints through artistic, ideological, and philosophical exchange. Our current calls for entries, scheduled events, and submission forms are listed on our call for entries page. Check out our exhibitions page for past and current exhibitions.

Call For Entry: The Abstract Image
International Submission Deadline:

The Abstract Image highlights the transformative power of abstraction in photography, allowing us to break free from reality and explore the myriad possibilities within non-representational states. This theme invites us to push the boundaries of photographic art by exploring alternative, experimental, or even accidental elements of the captured image that exhibit photography’s ability to serve as a conduit for visual metaphor and personal expression.
The Abstract Image is an international open call for photographers ages 18 and older. All forms of two-dimensional images, traditional and non-conventional media, and conventional or alternative processes with a subjective analog or digital photographic base are welcome for submission.
Submission Deadline: December 15th, 2024

Format: Online Exhibition
