Hope is Never Silent: Queer Art Across Texas
Hope Is Never Silent has partnered with regional advocacy groups to
curate a traveling exhibit -- a moveable museum of sorts -- that will give
voice to Queer Art.
This traveling juried exhibition seeks to reflect this pivotal artistic
movement within the Civil Rights Movement.
Queer Art Across Texas is expanding the range and depth of knowledge
about contemporary Queer Culture.
The exhibit will be enhanced by a number of pamphlets that allow visitors to
witness the creative process in the context of myriad factors - an amalgam of
gender, racial, ethnic and sexual - that have ultimately changed America
forever.
No pride march would be complete without
celebrating its own rich artistic and avant-garde culture.
Indeed, what is a celebration of Culture without
Art?
And what better way to celebrate Culture than with
Art?
The show has
been selected to participate in:
Houston Pride,
Inc at the Houston GLBT Center, June 20-12, 2012.
Charles Adams
Gallery in Lubbock August 3 – September 8, 2012.
Ilume Gallery
in Dallas, September 19-28, 2012.
The juror, Patricia Earl invites all
Texas artists to be a part of our moveable museum that will give voice to queer
art expanding the range and depth of
knowledge about contemporary Queer Culture. The exhibit will also be enhanced
by a number of pamphlets that allow visitors to witness the creative process in
the context of myriad factors, “An amalgam of gender, racial, ethnic and sexual
– that have ultimately changed America forever,” the show’s promotional
material states.
Only Two-dimensional work will be accepted, maximum
size of 60 x 60 inches. All work must be “ready-to-hang.” Works on paper are to
be framed with secure hanging wire or d-rings (frame not required for stretched
canvas). Saw-tooths and other hanging devices will not be accepted. Plexiglas
must be used instead of glass for framing.
Deadline for entry form and CD is April 13, 2012
(postmarked). On June 4, 2012 accepted artists will be contacted by e-mail.
Works accepted into the exhibit must be received between June 4-15, 2012.
