LIP= Life in Progress  |  AnySquared Projects is seeking work that expresses definitions and/or critiques of progress. Progress can mean many things, as time moves forward, how can we explore this concept with our work, our art, in our communities, and as human beings, both in the city and the world?

Through all media,
AnySquared asks artists to represent, examine, analyze, or dissect what is actual progress, what some consider progress, and what is the difference between those two concepts. We seek art that provokes, challenges, and illustrates that change. While not a requirement, you are encouraged to create new work based on this general theme for exhibition.

Requirements | See Online Submission Form >
For questions about the exhibition or application, email projects@anysquared.com.

This exhibition is  part of the larger LIP 20/20 ART SERIES organized in the next year in honor of AnySquared’s 10th anniversary. The year-long series will include exhibitions, community building events, a poster series, and community murals. Visit website for LIP 20/20
