Welcome to Fusion Art's 4th Annual Black & White International Online Juried Art Exhibition for the month of April 2020.
For this exhibition, both 2D and 3D artists were encouraged to share their best art and photography using black & white & the nuanced shades in between. All artists, over the age of 18, regardless of location or experience, were encouraged to submit their best black & white art and photography.
We once again received a diverse collection of quality artwork from artists all around the world, including the US, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, North Macedonia, Russia and Thailand. Overall the gallery judged 342 entries for the exhibition, which will be featured on the website for the month of April.
In this monthly themed exhibition Fusion Art presents awards in two categories: Traditional Art and Photography & Digital Art. The Black & White Best in Show winners are Cher Pruys for her acrylic, “Day Break” and John Diephouse for his photograph, "Dew on the Hudson. Both Cher and John are Fusion Art's Featured Artists for the month of April 2020 and, as the Best in Show winners, both artists are invited to participate in Fusion Art's 5th Annual Group Show in Palm Springs in 2021.
Below are the top winning artists in both the Traditional Art and Photography & Digital Art categories. Please visit the Monthly Winners Page to learn more about each of these award winning artists and/or to contact them directly about their work.

The remaining finalists in the exhibition all exemplify uniquely creative talents and we're honored to showcase their artwork on the Fusion Art website.
Fusion Art strives to create interesting and enjoyable art exhibitions with a variety of artistic styles and media represented. The art that is selected is based on the theme of the exhibition and the gallery's objective is to include, in every Fusion Art exhibition, a broad representation of quality, style, media, creativity, originality and artistic composition. Art tells a story and we strive to select artwork, particularly for awards, that make the viewers think and wonder what story the artist is trying to tell.
As always, we'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the competition participants. While not all the artwork that was submitted was selected for inclusion in the exhibition this in not necessarily a reflection on any one artist's talent and/or skill. It takes courage for artists to offer up one's art up for critique by others and all the artists should be applauded for their efforts. We appreciate all of you sharing your extraordinary talent with us.
For anyone interested in purchasing any of the artwork in this exhibition, please contact the artists directly. You will find the artist's website and/or email information below their work.
