In honour of International Women’s Week “The Art of Resistance” exhibition aims to explore art as a means for activism and political resistance.
We are looking for artwork in any medium that implicitly seeks the global advancement of social, political and economic justice, and we understand that these struggles begin at home. We regard our community as one voice among many, calling for integrated and thoughtful challenges to sexism, racism, imperialism, classism, capitalism, war, environmental destruction, as well as hierarchy and oppression in all its forms. We are looking for art that decolonizes, inspires change, cultivates dissent and creates pause for thought in all areas relating to gender equality and social justice.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS: February 4, 2010 by 4:00 pm
This exhibition will coincide with many International Women’s Week events relating to cultural activism organized by the Department of Gender Equality and Social Justice at Nipissing University, the Department of Fine Arts and Performing Arts at Nipissing University, the Near North Mobile Media Lab and WKP Kennedy Gallery.
