Divine Presence (may 21-june]
Forum discussion with the artists: May 26

This show is sponsored by the Faith and Art Forum. The purpose of the show is to explore the relationship between the way an artist creates and the way he relates to his creator. In addition to the gallery presentation, there will be a Forum discussion in which the artists will be given a chance to discuss their work, their faith and to answer questions from the audience.

Our hope is to open a dialogue about the creative processes and the difficulties and conflicts that arise in a world plagued by suffering. We hope that those who love visual art will benefit from such a straight forward discussion of the methods and processes of art making.

We are currently accepting proposals in any medium. In addition to images, we are also requesting a brief but thorough statement discussing the relationship of your work and your faith. We will proceed to an interview process, as artists are selected both on the quality of their work, and their ability to communicate their process. It is open to any faith (or lack there of). You may either submit in person, or contact us at entries@falloutminneapolis.com

We have set up a May 7 deadline on submissions, which may be extended given the circumstances. We encourage anyone to apply, even if it is after the deadline (the worst we can do is say no). We would also like to emphasize that you will be committing to attend a forum discussion on the evening of May 26. We also encourage you to be on hand at the opening, but because of the forum, we are not requiring it.

About the Faith and Art Forum: We are a discussion group that meets bimonthly to discuss issues that pertain to being artists of faith including: Icons, ethics, social repsonsibility and the use of art in worship.
