OPENSOURCE is now accepting submissions for an upcoming exhibition and sale of artist-made T-shirts |
*My Body Is My Billboard*
exhibition and sale of artist-made T-shirts
Call For Entries - new submission deadline: JANUARY 28!
OPENSOURCE, an alternative art space accommodating a variety of non-traditional, community-oriented art projects and events within Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, requests submissions for an upcoming exhibition and sale of artists' T-shirt multiples. Artists and designers are invited to produce an original edition of at least 6 T-shirts in response to one of the following three themes:
Designers Do It Better
keywords: haute couture meets T-shirt couture, more is less and function follows form, Bauhaus in da house, aesthetic apparatus, good design is hard to find, my other T-shirt is a BMW, a machine for being (cool)...
Souvenir (See, I was There)
keywords: tourism (cultural and otherwise), place / history as commodity, kitsch and crap, collectibles (spoons and snow globes, right?), colloquialisms (co-localisms), viva Las Vegas!
A Pun Is Fun
keywords: "I'm with stupid," ha-ha funny, word games and head games, welcome to the palindrome...
***CHANGED*** Deadline for submissions: January 28, 2005
There is no entry fee and artists may submit as many T-shirts as they like (there is NO minimum!). However, OPENSOURCE will retain a 20% commission of all T-shirts sold in order to offset operating costs. Unsold T-shirts will be
shipped back to the participants and paid for by deducting the shipping costs from their total amount in sales. Local participants may arrange to drop off and pick up submissions in person at the gallery.
***CHANGED*** Exhibition Dates: February 4-26
Opening Reception: February 4, 7-11pm - with more details to be announced!!!
