Call and Respond

Criticism isn't always in the form of a traditional review, instead we call for writers to simply 'respond', this can be in anyway they seem fit. A poem, a reflection, even an analysis or comparison.  We are called to respond. 

Call and Respond is a project created to generate more ekphrasis practice. Writers view an collection, exhibition or art work, and respond in a creative, critical or reflective mode. 

 

We are looking for....

Reviews of art pieces and exhibition that may not easily attract press attention. 

With an emphasis on new artists/ solo exhibits. 

Thoughtful and original writing, with considered arguments and clear ideas.

Brevity! (2200 characters!) 

Call and Respond is a free form, experimental ekphrasis process, open to the idea of discussion and conversation. 

Send submissions or enquiries to Darcey at - shc@qub.ac.uk
