ART IN RESPONSE--CALL FOR ENTRIES

“Art in Response” is an exhibition at Caritas Village organized by Radical Arts Memphis, an alliance of artists dedicated to achieving a communal voice through art. We seek solidarity between the artistic and political communities of Memphis in an effort to combat inequality and exploitation in our city. We wish to create a forum which questions the prevailing structures of power and pursues... a radical re-imagination of our society.

“Art in Response” will feature works from the Memphis community. The works should critically question the systemic divisions (race, gender, class, etc) within our city. Works should explore the ways in which these forms of separation affect us as both individuals and as a community.

HOW TO SUBMIT
all mediums are welcome-visual art, video, sound, poetry, music, etc.
all entries should be emailed to artinresponse@gmail.com by JANUARY 28th. Please include your contact information (name, email address, phone number) in the email submission.

FOR VISUAL ART ENTRIES
Please send JPGs of your work and a title sheet listing the dimensions, medium and titles of the pieces.

FOR OTHER ENTRIES
Please send mp3, .mov, or .doc files of your work and a title sheet listing the length and title of the piece.
If you are unable to email your submissions, please contact Bennett Foster at (901)-210-3768 to set up a time to have your work photographed/reviewed for submission.
