[Cwgrad-announcements] Call for Submissions

[Gabriela Jauregui]

*This from a friend, do submit!
Best,
Gaby

*
*The story of California is shaped by its troubled relationship to water.
 Over the last century, the definition of conservation and by extension, *
*reclamation, has changed drastically. *
*
*
*We invite critical and/or creative submissions for a forthcoming book and
exhibition, presenting the politics, poetics, history, reclamation*
*strategies, and communities living near to water in California.*
*
*
*This project will create a new way of navigating California's landscape.
Erasing the traditional map, tied together by counties and towns, the*
*state can be drawn by waterways, watersheds,
reclamations, deprivations...connecting seemingly disparate bodies. This is
an experiment in*
*geography, that encourages the mythological while integrating playful
artistry with a clear understanding of sometimes complex histories and*
*technologies. *
*
*
Submission deadline: July 15, 2008
*
*
*Submit to: *
*Enid Baxter Blader: enid at enidbaxterblader.com*
*or Nicole Antebi: nantebi at mac.com*

Please keep project abstracts under 250 words.
