Inspired by “If I had a hammer…I’d SMASH Patriarchy” the Susan B. Anthony Institute for Gender and Women’s Studies and The Art and Music Library at the University of Rochester in conjunction is pleased to announce a call for feminist photography! We encourage students, faculty, staff, and Greater Rochester community members to submit work. We are looking forward to seeing submissions from you!
No previous photography experience is necessary, but we are accepting photography only. All work must be original, ready to hang, and pertinent to the theme: Re-Imagining Film and Media Through a Feminist Lens. Examples could include: images of violence, sexism, or misogyny in film/media re-imagined through a feminist lens; a critique on these images; or creating a space through photography for women in male dominated space. We encourage thoughtfulness and creativity in your submissions.
The deadline to submit is Friday May 23, 2014. Submissions can be dropped off at the Susan B. Anthony Institute at the University of Rochester. The show will run June 2 – 27 in The Art and Music Library at the University of Rochester with a reception on June 6, the first Friday in June. A prize of $100 will be awarded to the best submission! For more information contact Jane Bryant at sbai@rochester.edu or (585) 275-8318.
