CALL FOR ART, etc:
Don’t Draw That: répondez s’il vous plaît
Recent events—including the murder of artists by terrorists in Paris, and the calls from many in reaction, including from some world leaders, for artists not to create provocative work on religion or other subjects that might offend—have spurred a wide range of responses from creative individuals and communities.
Works invites artists, cartoonists, designers, poets, etc., to submit work that responds to any aspect or point of view on these subjects: Do images incite hate and violence? Can images counter hate and violence? What should be the response of creative people to attacks on individuals or on freedom of expression itself? Are there other questions that should be posed?
Open to all media, concrete to abstract statements, and local to international creators. No fees or membership required.
Drop-off days, all 2pm to 6pm:
