Manifest Creative Research Gallery & Drawing Center
International PAINTING Annual 2
Deadline for entry: June 30, 2011
The International PAINTING Annual (INPA) is a project of Manifest Press, and a complementary project to the ongoing Drawing Annual project (INDA) which was begun in 2005. The goal of the INPA is to support the recognition, documentation, and publication of excellent, current, and relevant works of painting from around the world. As a carefully designed high-end book, the INPA enables Manifest to assemble a diverse array of works from around the world, without the limitation of physical availability, gallery space, or shipping logistics. Manifest’s book projects support our inquiry into the creative efforts of artists working today, and serve to document the exceptional results for posterity.
A wide variety of approaches to painting are welcome and encouraged, including a range of painting types, from the most academic to the most experimental, but all with some relevance to the artists’ honest understanding of the practice of “painting.” Works that challenge the common notion that painting must be made with ‘paint’ are also welcome.
Media: Open to any media applicable to the practice of painting including but by no means limited to traditional painting media. Printmaking, digital/new media, photography, sculpture, drawing, installation, etc., are all possibly valid.
For more information & to apply, please visit:

Manifest Creative Research Gallery & Drawing Center
Call for Exhibit Proposals
Manifest is calling for exhibit proposals for solo, two-person, group, and concept shows.
The deadline for proposals is June 1, 2011. Seasons begin late September. Selections are made and season planned by end of July.
On average one-third of Manifest’s exhibits are dedicated to solo exhibits. Solo exhibitors have included local, regional, and national artists from as far away as New York City and San Francisco. It is important that each of our seasons of free public exhibits consist of a balanced mix of solo and group thematic projects. The group shows provide diversity of approach, media, style, and geographic origin, while the solo exhibits provide a deeper insight into one artist’s vision.
Well over 100 artists exhibit, and 3000 or more patrons visit the gallery each year. Thousands of artists submit works to thematic projects produced at the gallery. And our exhibits are routinely reviewed in local, and sometimes national, news and art publications. We believe this makes the spots in our schedule reserved for solo or proposed exhibits highly valuable.
For more information and to submit a proposal, please visit: http://www.manifestgallery.org/proposals/index.html

There is no other restriction to submissions to this show except that they stay true to the theme of “bicycles,” and certain size limitations.

Concerning 3-D art we will consider the submission of art which involves the use of an actual bicycle (for example; airbrushing, pin-striping, or welding to a bicycle.

Scripts and Systems
May 25 – July 15, 2012
Do you follow maps, assembly instructions, recipes, dance steps, or tutorials? Do you ever plan, plot, devise, or scheme?
Many of our daily and most menial tasks have been reduced to orderly algorithms – a discrete set of steps, rules, or calculations followed in specific order to accomplish a task. With improving technology, we are personally responsible for fewer of these steps.
We’ve invented algorithms to plan algorithms and systems to create systems: from assembly-line robots and automated, interplanetary rovers to the robotic vacuum cleaners in our homes and the GPS orchestrating our daily commute. We have embraced the “set-it-and-forget-it” approach in nearly every aspect of our lives, laying trust on systems more than ever. Rinse, lather, and repeat.
Scripts and Systems is an exhibition about these plans and plots. It is about letting go of control – even in our creative lives. It is about the relationship between people and our machines, about whom we give instruction to and whom we take it from. It is about all of the scripts we follow.
Themes including (but not limited to) the following may be integrated into the final exhibition: analog/digital interaction, hand craft versus manufacturing, automation, programming, mapping, artificial intelligence, human / computer interaction, robotics and organic/synthetic synergy and opposition.
Artists interested in submitting work for consideration are encouraged to creatively interpret the theme. Works in all media are eligible.
For full prospectus please visit http://www.lexingtonartleague.org/calltoartist.htm and look under “Scripts and Systems.”

Exhibit dates: July 13- August 10, 2012.
Every year Manifest offers an opportunity for graduate students to exhibit at our gallery in Cincinnati. This sixth installment of the Master Pieces project will continue to reveal the intensity and professionalism of students working towards their terminal academic degree in the field of art or design.

Manifest’s goal, therefore, is to select works that in the truest sense of the word are contemporary masterpieces – works that set the standard of quality that the artist is expected to maintain throughout his or her professional career. The full-color exhibit catalog for this show will serve as a visual documentation of these artists’ own benchmarks for years to come.
