I absolutely love heirloom vegetables. I love the idea of preserving the genetic “bloodline,” if you will, of a fruit or vegetable easily distinguished from the genetically modified, hot-house varieties we are all used to eating. However, I can admit that sometimes a tomato is just a tomato. This next call recognizes that sometimes art is just art. They don’t want your CV, resume, statment or anything else–just your art.
Check out this Open Call from the WW Gallery for the Venice Biennale. Here’s your chance to get a London show based on merit. The deadline is rapidly approaching but you can email your entry! Take a look…
