Ecstatic Beasts: a VCFA Open Call for Art
Vermont College of Fine Arts announces Ecstatic Beasts, an exhibition in the VCFA College Hall Gallery! Current students, alumnx, faculty, artist-teachers & staff from all programs are welcome to submit their work.
Animals are regarded a multiplicity of functions in contemporary human society and culture, serving as pets, food, clothing, medicine, surrogates, life-savers and proxies—to name a few. Their role is hotly contested, as what it means to support animal stewardship and still acknowledge our collective dependence upon them is a murky, and often political, ground. And then the question: which animal? We revere some, loathe others, and barely even think of many.
Ecstatic Beasts is an exhibition that considers our complicated relationship to animals and, consequently, the natural world.
Deadline for submission: August 3, 2018
