Echo of the Whole: Call For Entries '08-'09
Adrienne Allebe, Stephanie Dotson, Tera Galanti, Servando Garcia
“Gather a shell from the strown beach/And listen at its lips: they sigh/The same desire and mystery,/The echo of the whole sea’s speech.” The title of this year's Call For Entries exhibition, Echo of the Whole, is excerpted from Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s poem titled The Sea Limits. Like the shells in this poem, the selected Tri-County artists—Adrienne Allebe, Stephanie Dotson, Tera Galanti, and Servando Garcia–echo the artistic practices and characteristics found within the art world as a whole, and reflect the many sides of Santa Barbara County’s own diverse artistic region.
CFE is an annual juried exhibition open to all visual artists living and/or working within Santa Barbara, Ventura, and San Luis Obispo counties. This program is designed to encourage artists from the local community to present new work in relation to the alternative arts context of CAF. CFE reflects CAF’s mission to sustain and encourage contemporary art and artists –ensuring that creative expression and appreciation flourishes in and beyond our community. CAF will open the application process for next year’s exhibition ‘09-’10 at the end of June. Additional information for the ‘09-’10 selection process will be made available on our website by mid-July, 2009.
