Alternative and experimental visual art

International eligibility; submission limit is 3 pieces. Eligible forms include photography, performance, moving-image (video / film), installation, fiber / textiles, assemblage, collage, jewelry, light design, printmaking, fashion / costume design, text-based fragments, and analogue digital (no AI). Artificial-intelligence-made works and Instagram links as portfolios are not accepted. Read all guidelines before applying. Email a CV, 3 image samples, and an artist website or online portfolio to editor@pointpleasantpublishing.net. Reading a couple of the publisher's essays before applying is highly recommended, not required. Selection considers originality, conceptual impact, portfolio cohesiveness, and aesthetic qualities; alternative / experimental and underrepresented artists are especially encouraged to apply. There is no application fee. Selected artists must either donate $35 or purchase any current paperback edition. Alternative contribution options are $100 for one premium linen-wrap hardcover copy of the volume containing their feature with free expedited shipping; $170 for two copies with free expedited shipping and 15% off the listed price; or $300 for four copies with free expedited shipping and 25% off the listed price, described as a $100 saving. Every essay is published in print and online regardless of contribution level. By applying or agreeing to participate, artists permit Michael Athanasius Hanna and Point Pleasant Publishing representatives to use images from their online portfolio and art in digital and print publications and promotions. No royalty fees or other financial compensation are paid for this usage. Artists retain copyright. Artists who disagree with these terms must email the publisher to say they do not wish to participate.
