Call for Submissions

Sweet Escape: Interpreting Freedom in the Modern World

(Swainsboro, GA) – Gallery RFD seeks submissions for its upcoming exhibition titled Sweet Escape: Interpreting Freedom in the Modern World.

With one of America’s most significant inaugurations just behind us, the country in economic turmoil, and a multitude of wars being fought on foreign soil, freedom is not far from anybody’s mind.  Not just in the political sense, for as tension rises we also seek creative escapes, and from that new ideas emerge.  Gallery RFD’s upcoming exhibition, Sweet Escape, is about exploring liberty in any context.  We request your views about political freedom, personal freedom, and creative freedom, interpreted into works of art. 

Submission deadline: Thursday, Feb. 26, 2009, 4 p.m. (EST)
Juror: Lucian Perkins, photojournalist and two time Pulitzer prize winner. 

Exhibition runs: April 11 – May 2, 2009
Opening Reception: April 11, 2009, 5-8 p.m.
