Open Call for Entries
Square Foot of War

February 8 - March 1,  2013

Xavier Pick
Inspired by the book, Shade It Black: Death and After in Iraq by Jess Goodell with John Hearn, the Oxford Community Arts Center anticipates entries for an open exhibition, Square Foot of War. Shade It Black is a haunting book by former Marine Jess Goodell and describes her service in Iraq with the Mortuary Affairs Unit. Her absorbing account raises issues of evolving perspectives regarding gender relations, service, violence, courage, loss and strength. The OCAC looks forward to your entries that relate to these issues and the multi-faceted traumatic effect of war.

Artwork specifications
All artworks must be 12” x 12”  or sculpture 1 cubic foot, and open to all media.
Entry deadline: January 11, 2013
