We are thrilled to announce an open call for submissions from artists and writers for an upcoming exhibition and publication centered on the theme of "Word art, slogans and manifestos".

We recently ran an exhibiton that explored the inspiration of the written word. But, for this open call the letters themselves are the art form. This TYPOGRAPHY can be in print, slogans, graphic designs, posters, graffeti, sculpture, photography or any creative application  that uses letters as the focus. 

We are seeking resolved work that meets the brief and has a unique spin on the theme.
