Exhibition Opportunity: These Territories Three

These Territories Three

December 8th, 2009 you have the opportunity to represent the state of Ohio in a mail art show housed within the BLANK Gallery in Gainesville, Florida. As long as you live in Ohio you are eligible. The parameters are by no means limited, as long as your object, painting, poem, photograph, or whatever you decide is “art” fits within an envelope, a box, a paper bag, you choose the vehicle that gets the object here, as long as the package is no larger than 7 1/2 by 5 1/8 by 14 3/8 inches. (This is the size of an average shoebox)

Feel free to spruce up the exterior of your package but keep in mind, it’s what’s inside that counts.

The theme of the show is “roots”, interpret this anyway you would like. Three individuals are curating this show, one from Kentucky, one from Illinois, and myself from Sunbury, Ohio. The plan is to take one idea, propose it to three states and try to see the differences in how the word “roots” is translated into our different cultures, societies, regions and so on.

Please ship your package to me as soon as possible; the deadline is December 1, 2009.

If you would like your piece returned either prepay for shipping and enclose the label or send check or money order made out to Samuel D. Kingsley for the cost of return shipping.

Please enclose the following information within your package:

Name

Where you call home

Where you live

Date of birth

Title of piece

Year created

If you have any questions please email me at samueldkingsley@gmail.com
