September 16 – November 15, 2009
OSU Newark LeFevre Art Gallery

Exhibition: Pilgrimage Through the Centuries is an exhibition intended to integrate contemporary interpretations of “pilgrimage” with traditional and historical ones. Artists are encouraged to submit work that speaks to and exemplifies the concept/practice of pilgrimage in their own lives. The scope of the exhibition is intentionally broad embracing the most traditional interpretation of this idea as well as the most abstract. Themes of the work could include, but are not limited to: personal journeys, the relevance of pilgrimage in contemporary life, historical accounts of pilgrimage, reflections on historical and/or personal pilgrimage sites…

Artwork submissions now being accepted for an exhibition titled, Pilgrimage Through the Centuries, at the LeFevre Art Gallery on the OSU-Newark Campus. The exhibition is being planned in conjunction with the activities surrounding Newark Earthworks Day 2009 in Newark, Ohio.

The walk will begin in Chillicothe on October 10 and will finish in Newark on October 16.

Call for Filmmakers

Beginning in September the Bureau for Open Culture at Columbus College of Art & Design will proudly welcome five international artist collectives to Columbus for participation in the exhibition Descent to Revolution. Artists will reside for varying lengths of time to produce projects specific to the social and economic conditions of the city. These projects will not take place inside the traditional space of the gallery but in concert with community and physical mediums outside of it. Always open to discoveries of process and collaboration, we invite documentary filmmakers to produce a short film about the exhibition, the artists, their works and the audience.

The filmmakers will have access to the artists, curators and participants to
make a film that, hopefully, will both augment their filmmaking intents and act as a valuable, lasting record of Descent to Revolution. Filmmakers interested in documenting Descent to Revolution, we’d love to hear from you!

Please contact us at (614) 222-3270 or bureau@bureauforopenculture.org
