FALLOUT: AN EXPLORATION OF THE POLITICS OF ENVIRONMENT. The media is jammed with ideaology; green vs. labor...democrat vs. republican...country vs. country, etc. etc. etc....Disagreement needn't end in conflict. This exhibition examines the ideal of peace alongside the reality of global difficulty. We are searching for the powerful and moving, the ecstatic, the thoughtful. And what seems to pass for concrete thinking, too. Artists working in all media except video are eligible. Deadline is January 20, 2006. One or more artists will be awarded a solo exhibition.
