The standard for applications was not lax and many people's entries were disqualified for not fitting the requirements. The tapestries that went to the juror fit the prospectus (except maybe for the cropping thing. It was just too much work for a volunteer to get new photos from so many applicants. I spent uncountable hours as it was readying this show.)Rebecca Mezoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16138972934775842473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-71232803753868616.post-44052072960418443332014-01-12T05:12:43.187-07:002014-01-12T05:12:43.187-07:00I am hugely disturbed to learn that the standard f...I am hugely disturbed to learn that the standard for applicants is so lax. That is a slap in the face of the applicants who accept responsibility (as they should) for understanding and complying with the requirements. And cleaning up behind those whose applications did not satisfy the requirements is co-dependent behavior that ultimately disempowers those applicants, treating them with disrespect.

A lot of shows are getting tough - if the artist doesn't follow directions, the work is eliminated - end of story. Mandy Pedigohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15286031970770408787noreply@blogger.com
