Arts Journal Accepting Submissions for its Second Issue

Chicago, Illinois, 27 April 2009

The Gothic Funk Nation is currently accepting submissions for the second issue of its arts journal, The Paramanu Pentaquark. The first issue, available by CD-ROM and online (for free at http://www.gothicfunk.org) was released in February 2009. The journal is an eclectic collection of music, painting, photography, poetry, and purpose that runs a line from the evocative to the visceral. Common themes include diversity, emotional intensity, and the urgency of communication; this is not a project given to passive pessimism or reluctant daydreams.

Our second issue will be published this upcoming August, and art in any medium may be submitted via our website at http://www.gothicfunk.org/parapenta/submissions/. Submissions will be considered as Images, Sounds, or Words, and artists will be notified of our decision within one to two months. In addition to publication, accepted artists will receive a free copy of a limited print CD-ROM of the second issue, and an invitation to present their work at an official launch event hosted in Chicago. While we do archive previously published work, archives cannot be accessed online and are only available to individuals upon request; this is for the protection of our artists.

To submit your work, please visit http://www.gothicfunk.org/parapenta/submissions/
To pursue the first issue of the Paramanu Pentaquark, please visit http://www.gothicfunk.org/parapenta/01/.

Manifest Creative Research Gallery: FINAL CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

3rd Annual
MASTER PIECES
An International Competitive Juried Exhibit of Works by New Masters
A call for current graduate students or 2009 MFA/MA graduates (as of opening of exhibit)

Deadline: June 5th


An annual offering, this 3rd installment of the Master Pieces project will continue to reveal the intensity and professionalism of students working towards their terminal academic degree in the field of art or design. The exhibit successfully draws participation by artists working in a variety of approaches and media, and joins them together from afar in one momentous presentation which introduces them and highlights their work to the world. 

Often the most exceptional work comes out of these artists' immersion in their culture of study and intellectual pursuit. Manifest's goal, therefore, is to select works that in the truest sense of the word are contemporary masterpieces - works that set the standard of quality that the artist is expected to maintain throughout his or her professional career. The exhibit catalog for this show will serve as a visual documentation of these artists' own benchmarks for years to come.

Wexner Center for the Arts: Student Docent Program Info Session

Student Docent Program Info Session
Want to be a student docent? Learn about the training program and tour the galleries
Thursday, May 14, 2009 | 6:30 PM
Galleries

The Wexner Center exhibits work created by artists from around the globe. We welcome visitors from a range of backgrounds and communities. In order to serve a diverse audience, we need a diverse team.

We are now taking applications for our 2009-2010 class of Student Docents. Contemporary art challenges viewers to face and explore potentially provocative topics. Docents lead meaningful gallery discussions and push visitors to experience art from a range of perspectives. They guide the public in exploring issues of identity, race, sexuality, politics, and more. An academic background in the arts isn’t necessary—but a love for the arts and people is.

Join us and learn more on May 14 at 6:30pm. You’ll hear about the training program, get your questions answered, and tour the galleries with one of our student docents.
Email edweb@wexarts.org or call 614.292.6493 to RSVP.
