Call for Submissions
This is an opportunity for college and graduate students to have their works included in The ROCI Road to Peace: Experiments in the Unfamiliar at the Academy Art Museum, alongside iconic works by Robert Rauschenberg and renowned international artists. Submit your application here by Sunday, October 4, 2015 at 11:59pm ET.
To be considered, students enrolled at accredited institutions around the globe are invited to submit artworks, in a digital format, that embody the spirit of the Rauschenberg Overseas Culture Interchange (ROCI). Rauschenberg was a visual scavenger, surveying the nuances of the everyday with the hope to improve understanding and awareness. In what ways does your artwork seek to foster greater cultural understanding?
Criteria:
- Complete the online submission form (link here).
- Students must be 18 years or older and currently enrolled in an accredited institution.
- Each student can submit up to 3 artworks, with a maximum of 3 images per artwork. Each student must submit in English an artist’s statement (max. 300 words) and a brief bio (max. 300 words).
- All works will be exhibited in a digital format on a screen. Works that lend themselves to this format are preferred, but those that do not will also be considered.

Please review the Official Submission Rules before submitting your entry.
