Rejection from juried exhibitions is baked into the cake for artists who want to show their work. “Not Accepted: A Conversation About Rejection,” a slide lecture, delves into the topic. The lecture takes place at the Glen Arbor Arts Center on September 7, 11 am. Tickets are $5 for GAAC members, $10 for nonmembers. Reservations are required.
“Not Accepted” explores rejection through the lens of two, historic examples: the Paris Salon of 1863, and the Third Reich’s suppression and destruction of visual art it considered “degenerate.” The topic also touches upon other issues: Who determines what is acceptable art? Whose voice is heard? And, whose voice is erased? GAAC Gallery Manager Sarah Bearup-Neal leads the discussion.
The lecture is offered as part of the GAAC’s exhibition HIStory / HERstory: Whose Story? The show is on display in the GAAC Main Gallery through October 23.
