Ang Bagong Libro: The Exhibit

Read Or Die and Goethe Institut Manila present Ang Bagong Libro, an art exhibit featuring re-interpreted covers of Filipino books by Filipino artists using traditional and digital media. The purpose of the exhibit is to foster an intersection between Filipino literature (and writers) and Filipino art (and artists) through the medium of book cover design as art.

We are encouraging Filipino artists of all artistic stripes and affiliations to participate. If you are interested in submitting artwork for the exhibit please take a look at our guidelines.

The exhibit will open on January 25, 2008 at the Goethe Institut, 4-5/F Adamson Centre, 121 Leviste St., Salcedo Village, Makati City.

Hi Tin, when’s the deadline for submitting artwork? It’s not in the guidelines ._.

Sorry, ehehe. Will work on the final version of the site over the next few days.

Tentative dates:

For open submissions, the deadline for submitting samples of your work/a mini-portfolio is December 3, 2007.

For artwork that is to be featured in the exhibit, the deadline is January 18, 2007.

These are still tentative since I have yet to finalize the timetable but at least you have a general idea

Okay, make that December 14, sorry. Though of course the earlier the better so you have more time to work on the actual book cover.

If you already have book cover art there are separate submission guidelines and dates for that — I’ll upload them to the site along with the other important dates once I’ve finalized them.
