Two Proposals
Exit' Art'
The �Other America� Call for Proposals � Conceptplus
Application Date: 12/01/04
We live in a world that is defined by American Pop icons like MTV, Hollywood, CNN, Disneyland, ?McDonald's. Coca-Cola and Superman. What are the views of America beyond the dominant commercial aesthetic? What are the other faces of our country that we want to presents to the rest of the world? What are the issues and ideas that concern us? Who and where is the 'Other America'?
There are always new countercultures. What are the stories about life and art in the United States that reflect other narratives and visions of who we are? How do we define ourselves outside the definition of the American mainstream?
Proposals may be for work in any medium. You can submit for either or both projects. Please submit a one page description of your project idea; a sketch of the proposed project; a resume; and documentation of your previous work (10-20 slides or images on CD, or a 3 to 5 minute VHS, NTSC video or DVD). Please include self-addressed stamped envelope for the return of your work. Exit Art is not responsible for returning works submitted without SASE.
