The Sex Issue: Volume 2
Announcing the second annual 'Sex Issue' exhibition at Projekt30!
Last year's exhibition was a huge success; we expect this years exhibition to be one of the most
anticipated of the season.
Every year or so, almost every culture magazine on the planet releases a "sex issue";
an issue which portends to explore in various ways the roles of gender and sex in contemporary culture.
Invariably they are just filled with various "insights" on the dating scene,
list's like "10 Ways to Please your Partner Tonight", and advertising designed
to increase your insecurities in order to sell beauty products of dubious value.
This February, Projekt30 intends to release its own "Sex Issue" in which fine
artists may comment upon gender and sex in our society. We are accepting work
ranging from the personal, to the political, to the near-pornographic*.
The exhibition will be publicly juried, in a fashion similar to our other publicly
juried exhibitions. As usual, the final exhibition will consist of work from 30 artists.
It will run concurrently with the February, March, and April exhibitions, from February 14 to April 15.
Apply now.
Fee: $35 for 10 images. Members may submit ten images for free, and are encouraged to participate!
The deadline is February 1, 2006.
The exhibition will be publicly juried February 2-13.
The 'final thirty' will go online Valentines Day, February 14, 2007.
No video or sound art. All artists must be 18 or older.
* While Projekt30 employs a firm anti-censorship policy, we must be clear we are not looking
for artwork that is purely pornographic in nature. Work submitted should have clear artistic merit:
- If work is presented that is questionable it will be dealt with by our in-house jurors.
We expect the show to be controversial, but also content rich.
- So as to comply with 18 U.S.C. 2257 photographer's who's work contains 'actual sexual contact'
as defined by the bill, may be asked to provide documentation proving that all models
in said images were 18 at the time of production.
- If work is submitted that is believed to be in violation of US law, our staff may be be forced to remove it prior to public jurying.
