We are pleased to announce that the exhibiting artists for both FEED2011 and InLight Richmond 2011 have been selected!
FEED2011, a national juried biennial exhibition organized by 1708 Gallery, will be on view September 2 through October 22. There were two tiers to the jurying process. The submissions were first narrowed down to a list of semi-finalists. Out of this list, five finalists were selected for the exhibition. Each of the five finalists will exhibit multiple works and will receive an honorarium of $1000.
We were thrilled to receive 338 entries for FEED2011 from 37 states and 8 countries. Jurors Lauren Marinaro, Assistant Director at Zach Feuer Gallery, New York, and Elizabeth Schlatter, Deputy Director and Curator of Exhibitions at the University of Richmond Museums, Virginia, were honored to have the opportunity to review so much dynamic work from all across the country and world.
