(Swainsboro, GA) – Gallery RFD seeks submissions for it upcoming exhibition titled
conTEXTualized: The Word as Image.

Graffiti-scrawled walls and Ed Ruscha's wordplays; contemporary motion graphics and Rauschenberg's word-portrait of Iris Clert; El Lissitzky's Prouns and Braque's text-embedded collages—the visual world is replete with examples of language's graphical properties.

Gallery RFD seeks submissions of work in any media that explores the dynamism of language's visual representation for the upcoming exhibit "conTEXTualized: The Word as Image."

Juror Maggie Fost is a designer and educator with a B.A. in Studio Art from Bowdoin College and an M.F.A. in Design from California College of the Arts. In 2004, a one-year stint as the Designer in Residence at NC State brought her to North Carolina, where she has remained, serving as the Art Director for Merge Records for the past three years.

Submissions due by Friday, July 18, 2008 by 4 p.m. EST.

Exhibition opens Saturday, August 9, 2008 and runs through Tuesday, September 9, 2008.
Please see the gallery's website for further details.
