(Swainsboro, GA) - Gallery RFD seeks submissions for an upcoming exhibition titled
Beautiful Losers: The Art of Failure.
Roughly defined as unmet expectation, failure is often a necessary precursor to its antithesis. Beautiful Losers: The Art of Failure pays homage to the value of the error in all its guises—rough drafts, flawed ideas, mistakes and accidents. Mishaps in any media of a conceptual, mechanical, material or theoretical nature are sought.
Submission deadline: Sunday, August 3, 2008, 4 p.m. (EST)
Jurors: Oakland, California's Scott Oliver and Joseph del Pesco, co-founders of the online art journal, shotgun-review.com
Exhibition runs September 13 - October 9, 2008
Opening Reception: Saturday, September 13, 2008, 5-8 p.m.
Please see the gallery's website for further details.
