The Sex Issue: Volume 5
Deadline: February 2, 2010
Publicly Juried: February 4-12, 2010
Opens: February 14, 2010
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 Valentine's Day, February 14th, Projekt30 will host its 5th annual "Sex Issue" Exhibition featuring artworks which
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.
Unsurprisingly, our annual Sex Issue exhibition is the most popular and heavily trafficed show of the year.
* 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.
- 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.
