INDA 9
The 9th International Drawing Annual
An International Juried Exhibition-in-Print (Publication)
A Competitive Annual Publication of Works of Contemporary Drawing and/or Writing about Drawing
The award-winning International Drawing Annual is an extension and merging of Manifest's Drawing Center, Press, and Gallery programs. Its ongoing goal is to support the recognition, documentation, and publication of excellent, current, and relevant works of drawing from around the world.
A natural question will be "what is drawing?" and that is exactly one question the Annual is meant to investigate from year to year. Furthermore the goal is to ask "what is exceptional drawing?" Therefore submissions are expected to vary, including a range of drawing types, from the most academic to the most experimental, but all with some relevance to the artists' honest understanding of the practice of drawing.
Eligibility: The International Drawing Annual is open to any artist submitting original works of art or design created within the past three years (2011 - 2013). Artists, designers, illustrators, professionals, and students in ALL disciplines are encouraged to submit. Manifest is eager to receive works of drawing in a wide range of applications (technical, graphic, fine art, design, architectural, digital, illustration, etc.) with the qualification being that artwork submitted is representative of high quality drawing.
Note that artists who previously exhibited at Manifest or had work included in our publications ARE eligible and encouraged to submit. Manifest's juries are always conducted 'blind'.
Media (artwork): The project is open to any media applicable to the practice of drawing including but by no means limited to traditional drawing media. Printmaking, digital/new media, photography, sculpture, painting, installation, etc., are all possibly valid if used to address the practice of drawing in a significant way.
Deadline: December 31, 2013
