AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Photographers, Video & Media Artists: Submit your work to our Annual
Summer Juried Exhibition In his book *Non-Places: Introduction to an
Anthropology of Supermodernity,* Marc Augé coined the phrase “non-place” to
refer to transient places—such as freeways, airports, supermarkets, and big
box stores—which do not hold enough significance to be regarded as
“places.” These non-places seem at first to be anonymous and
interchangeable, devoid of memory or a sense of belonging. Yet as more and
more our of daily lives are spent occupying such ‘non-places,’ artists are
investigating the ways in which the particularities of ‘place’—humanity,
storytelling, and belonging—can come out of or be revealed in the non-place.

Venice Arts Gallery, located in Los Angeles, CA, invites artists exploring
these transient, postmodern spaces of everyday life, or their
counterparts—the specific, the personal, and the local—to submit work for
our annual Summer Juried Exhibition—*Place/Non-place: Locality in the
Digital Age.*

The Venice Arts Gallery focuses on photography, film, and media arts. The
exhibition is open to artists working in photography, film, video, and
digital/new media.

2013, with an opening reception for the artists on Saturday, June 29th,
