Drink & Dial Call for Submissions!
Deadline fast approaching: 31 January 2010,
but it's not too late to take part...
If you've missed our previous bulletins and are thinking, what's Drink & Dial?...it is the title of our forthcoming 6 week exhibition, which runs 26 March - 6 May.
Drink & Dial is the universal tendency of making regrettable phone calls while intoxicated. Artists are invited to respond to the concept in any way they choose, all media considered, all artists eligible.
Full details are on the Drink & Dial page, much of it recently updated, so take a look! |
Jarik Jongman Sanctuary - Heilige Orte 18-20 Dec 09 at Kunsthalle m3 Berlin
