About the Exhibition

This juried exhibition is part of a series exploring the four elements of Hip Hop culture; rapping, graffiti breakdancing, and deejaying. CIPHER, the first of these events, explores rap (lyricism) and related genres through visual art. Works must relate to lyricism in hip hop or a kindred genre such as slam poetry and spoken work. Artists may collaborate with other artists on work. Artists are asked to submit artwork reflective of that concept. All mediums will be considered for the exhibition.  2-D works must be ready to hang with proper backing, sculptural and installation work must be able to endure for the duration of the exhibition.

Entry Fee: none

Deadline for online Submission: April 1, 2012. A maximum of 5 images may be submitted. Late entries will not be considered. Artists accepted will be contacted on April 6, 2012. Please be sure to include and artist statement and bio with your submissions.
