Southern Exposure Opportunities

SoEx Open Submissions Process Re-Opens
Southern Exposure is proud to announce the re-opening of its open submissions process and is considering work for 2009 and beyond. Southern Exposure reviews artists submissions for solo exhibitions, inclusion in group exhibitions, public art projects, public programs and events. We encourage artists interested in submitting work to familiarize themselves with SoEx's programming as a way to focus their application. View past programs in the archive sections of our website at www.soex.org.

Southern Exposure (SoEx) provides opportunities to visual artists who demonstrate a potential for artistic growth. We are committed to supporting new, diverse and risk-taking forms of visual art and are accepting submissions for new work in all visual arts and related mediums. A guiding principal of the organization is to offer the opportunity to artists to work in formats and contexts that extend and challenge their creative development. While we primarily focus on supporting local artists we encourage submissions from non-local and international artists as well. SoEx is interested in supporting a diverse population of artists and strongly encourages women and people of color to apply.

All submissions are reviewed by SoEx's Curatorial Committee, a volunteer group 10 artists and two staff members. Submissions are reviewed on a quarterly basis. There is no deadline and application occurs on a rolling basis.
