Artists are currently welcome to submit pieces for consideration for the Into The Pixel 2011 exhibit. The latest works for the digital game art exhibition, now in its eighth year, will debut at a little shindig called E3 in June. Submissions are open now and will close on April 15.
The 2010 collection had 200 submissions, with 20 works selected for the gallery, which also travels to other locales throughout the year. All selected pieces of art are printed out by a "master printer," then professionally framed. It's admittedly far cooler than printing out your work on a BubbleJet and sticking it on your wall with Blu-Tack.

I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite picture of the Citadel.

Only two hundred submissions? That is lower than I expected.

@Toop
It's probably because it costs one hundred dollars to submit three pieces, which seems high. If they knocked it down to, say, $35 for a single submission, there would likely be more takers.

I remember when they would auction off the pictures that would go on tour. I wound up winning 2009's Craft Cosmos picture, but I still need to get it framed.

Joystiq,
I hope you will post this year's submissions after all the E3 fracas has dissipated.
Thanqs. ;)

I was super excited and willing to pay the fee... Until I discovered your work has to be in a game that has published or has a definite launch date. So you could say that these submissions are not "open".
