FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
CALL TO ARTISTS FOR “LIVE AMATEURS” ALL-MEDIA JURIED EXHIBITION
MINT Galleryʼs 1st annual juried exhibition open to all emerging artists in the Southeast
Atlanta, Georgia – MINT is proud to announce an all-media call to artists for “Live Amateurs”, our 1st Annual Juried Exhibition to be hosted at MINT Gallery in Atlanta, GA in January 2014. Juried by artist Craig Drennen, “Live Amateurs” seeks to showcase the work of some of the most dynamic and innovative emerging cultural producers currently working in the Southeast United States.
Eligible artists must over the age of 18 and currently reside in Southeast United States (AL, AR, DC, FL, GA, KY, LA, MD, MS, NC, SC, TN, VA, WV).

All media are welcome including, but not limited to, drawing, painting, sculpture, design, glass, metalwork, photography, video, audio, mixed media, installation, and performance art. There are no limitations on scale or content.

The application will open on Monday, September 23 and close on Sunday, November 17 at 11:59pm. All interested artists may apply through CaFÉ.org at: https://www.callforentry.org

The exhibition will be hosted at MINT Gallery in Atlanta, GA from January-February 2014. All artists traveling to Atlanta for the opening of the exhibition will be given discounted accommodation at the neighboring Highland Inn. One artist will be selected for a solo exhibition to take place at MINT during the summer of 2014. This artist will receive an honorarium for supplies provided by Binders Art Supplies and Frames, free accommodation at the Highland Inn during the week of installation, an installation assistant provided by MINT, as well as other prizes provided by other local businesses and organizations.

JUROR STATEMENT – The term "live amateurs" originated in the early days of adult entertainment, but lives on in the online environment. The terms "live" and "amateur" are presented as a sexier alternatives to recorded, scripted professionals. Within the art world it's not uncommon for the unpolished directness of amateurs to be valorized as authenticity. There are also plentiful cases of professionals shamelessly plundering the traits of amateurs. But it may simply be that emerging artists are amateurs in the early stages of turning pro. This exhibition at MINT gallery is meant to showcase the very best artistic qualities that "live amateurs" can provide.

JUROR BIO – Craig Drennen is an artist based in Atlanta, GA. He is represented by Samsøn gallery in Boston and Saltworks in Atlanta. His most recent solo exhibition was at Ellen de Bruijne Projects in Amsterdam, and he has shown at the Aqua, NADA, Volta, and MACO art fairs. His work has been
reviewed in Artforum, Art in America, and The New York Times. He teaches drawing and painting at
Georgia State University, served as dean of the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture from
2010-2013, and is on the board of Art Papers magazine.

MINT is a 501(c)3 non-profit volunteer run arts organization dedicated to cultivating a stronger creative community in Atlanta and throughout Georgia. We engage emerging artists, patrons, and creative professionals by providing studio and exhibition space, curatorial opportunities, workshops and classes, conferences, and other resources. MINT believes that through these programs we foster a generous spirit, strengthen the regional economy, and enrich the creative community. MINT is located at 636 N Highland Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30306
