The Gallery at Community College of Baltimore County Essex.
Essex MD, June 17 - September 9, 2022
The Exhibit
From political cartoons to graffitied slogans on city walls, art has always been used as a tool for resistance. Commonly used as a provocative social commentary, art allows for radical thoughts and ideas to be publicly displayed on some of the largest platforms attainable - such as a higher education institution.
Deriving from Community College of Baltimore County’s 2020 exhibition Protest Art, in which the college’s gallery used its platform to amplify marginalized images and perspectives in reference to racial injustice, Unveiling Resistance expands on this concept. This call for entry is looking for artists who create works that directly explore injustice and oppressive systems inflicted on marginalized groups. Together we will create an exhibition that highlights how contemporary artists are using their voices and artist talents to resist injustice.
