CALL TO ARTISTS: The Green Line - February 15, 2007
Submission Deadline: February 15, 2007
Exhibit dates: April 26 – May 27, 2007
Gallery hours FRI 5-8, SAT-SUN 1-5; SOS May 5-6, special hours 12-6
The Green Line T service will be extended past Lechmere Station, through the Brickbottom District, Union Square and out to Tufts. In addition to connecting two ends of the city, it will connect the two non-profit Somerville gallery spaces: Brickbottom Gallery and The Nave Gallery. To celebrate this long awaited project, both spaces are presenting exhibitions related to the T expansion. This call is specifically for the Nave Gallery exhibit.
Artists are invited to submit work related to the subject, which can be expanded to include urban living, transportation, quality of life, public spaces – what connections do you make? Brickbottom will be planning an exhibition along the same (Green) lines. Artists are encouraged to propose work that would span the two sites in some way or to exhibit work that documents the space between. The two galleries will have different exhibition schedules that will intersect through Somerville Open Studios weekend, May 5 and 6.
Applicants must submit:
Up to four (4) images of work relating to this theme. Slides are preferred, but you may submit jpeg files on CD-Rom (300 dpi). Sculpture entries must be original and of actual pieces. Installation entries may be representative, documenting past installations, with a new proposal for the Nave Gallery space.
An image list numerically cross-referenced against slides including title, dimension, media, and date for each work submitted. For digital submissions, please label each file (artist name)(title) .jpeg. All disks must be labeled with the artist’s name, title, dimension and medium.
A short statement describing your interpretation of the theme and how it is illuminated by the work submitted.
A resume including email, phone
$10 entry fee payable to ARTSomerville to defray costs (NOT refundable).
