FOOD FIGHT
We all have a responsibility to know how our food ends up on our plates. I’ve seen the slaughter videos (horrifying BTW), and I still eat beef. I have witnessed a chicken lose his head (disturbing), and I still eat chicken. But I have to say, I’m not cooking live lobster or crab. My husband is allergic to shellfish, so it doesn’t come up all that often, but I’m not going to fight my food. Lobsters and crab have a documented history of fighting the cooking process. Not this girl. Thanks, but no. This next Call is looking for your brand of rebellion. Lobsters and crabs are not eligible to apply…
Check out this Call for Entries for The Art of Rebellion from Gowanus Print Lab in Brooklyn, NY! Except for the rare “no entry fee” opportunity, entry fees don’t get cheaper than $5 for 5 images. The only catch is that you have to be a student. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: The Art of Rebellion
2011 has been a year of rebellion. This year has seen long-standing monarchs overthrown in Egypt and Libya and mass protests for calling change in the economic-political power structure in Europe and the United States, most notably in Occupy Wall Street.
Dissent at this level has not been seen since the late 1960’s, where protesters developed both nonviolent and more radical protest techniques that are still used in today’s struggles.
Young people in particular are standing up and using their voice, and in times of social turmoil and political upheaval art can be used as a powerful and emotional communicative tool.
ELIGIBILITY:
Open to currently enrolled students
MEDIA: The exhibition will include a variety of mediums used to convey political messages, such as street art, fashion, photography and poster design. All political view points are encouraged to submit.
DEADLINE:
November 28, 2011
ENTRY FEE:
$5 submission fee payable via Paypal for up to 5 images
