1708 Gallery invites artists working in all media and disciplines, including performance, to submit proposals for InLight Richmond 2011, 1708 Gallery’s fourth annual one-night, public, light-based art exhibition. InLight Richmond 2011 will take place on Friday, October 21 along the James River on a site that features the American Civil War Center at Tredegar Iron Works. Proposals should involve, be inspired by, investigate, or interpret themes of light, from light as medium to light as concept. Existing work, as well as proposals for new projects, will be considered. However, preference will be given to site-specific projects that engage this particular location. An honorarium will be given to each project. All entries are eligible for the Best in Show award ($1500) and the People’s Choice Award ($500). All green entries are also eligible for a Best in Green award ($1500).
The juror for InLight 2011 is Matthew Lyons, Curator at The Kitchen in New York. The deadline for submission is midnight on June 15, 2011.
