Poetry submissions now open
Moving Galleries is now seeking poetry for its next two travelling
exhibitions, from poets residing in Victoria.
The themes for the next two exhibitions is innocence and transformation.
Poets are encouraged to respond to the themes as creatively as possible and
submit their poems by May 31st 2008.
All poets selected will have their work published and displayed inside 40
Connex trains travelling around Melbourne.
Spring 2008 Exhibition: Innocence
The Spring 2008 exhibition will draw from artwork selected from the ArtPlay
programme.
In keeping with the childrenšs art, the theme for the poetry will be
innocence.
We are looking for creative responses to the theme.
Here are some ideas to get you started: beginnings, childhood, renewal,
freedom, simplicity, the primitive, a fresh way of looking at the world,
spring.
Autumn 2009 Exhibition: Transformation
The Autumn 2009 exhibition will draw from artwork selected from the Creative
Spaces initiative.
In keeping with changing non-traditional gallery spaces with works of art,
the theme for the poetry will be transformation.
A few thoughts to kick-start your own: metamorphosis, a sea change,
renovation, the migrant experience, evolution, making a break, seasonal
change.
The Spring 2008 and Autumn 2009 Moving Galleries exhibitions will be
incorporating all forms of poetry, from rooku to sonnets, acrostics to blank
verse.
Moving Galleries will be looking to include a wide variety of poetic forms
in each exhibition period.
