from Franklin Furnace

DEADLINE EXTENDED: OCTOBER 13TH, 2017 AT 11:59 PM

THE 5TH A.I.R. CURRENTS EXHIBITION

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

Abortion. Roe v. Wade. Again. A burning, controversial subject that divides us. For years we took having control over our bodies for granted. Now we can’t. Did you have one? Do you know someone who did? Was it legal? Did someone you knew die as the result of an illegal abortion? Or, were their bodies so screwed up afterward that they could not have children when they wanted them? Do you have remorse? Did you tell anyone about it? What is the definition of pro life anyway? Aren’t we all pro life? Are you against abortion? Are you for abortion? Express your rage or your acceptance, your sorrow, your ambivalence, your thoughts: tell them in visual prose, video, photography, painting, mixed mediums, sculptures, prints, performance. As abortion is a subject that has been kept hidden, it is possible that a vast amount of completed work about it does not exist. Applicants have the opportunity to create new and vital images that will make an important contribution to our collective history.
