Writ Large

Open call for text artists

Pitzer Art Galleries announce the launch of Writ Large a new exhibition project site for text work. Writ Large invites artists working with text to produce a temporary site-specific work for the curved wall of an interior staircase connecting the first and second floors of the Nichols Gallery. The wall is viewable from the main and balcony galleries yet occupies a distinct space all its own. Measuring 15 feet high by 10 feet wide the work will remain on view for 4 months. Each project will have its own announcement card, be celebrated by a reception for the artist(s), and will be featured on Pitzer Art Galleries website.

Project Specifications
There are no thematic or subject restraints. The individual letterforms should be no larger than 6 inches high and a maximum of 400 characters. The text should be designed with one color in mind. The Illustrator file with all fonts embedded should be sent to art_galleries@pitzer.edu. All work will be installed by Pitzer Art Galleries staff.
