Smash the Narrative offers an opportunity to participate in the art competition titled "You Can't Paint it!" to talk about freedom of expression and censorship in the modern age.
This year's theme is titled “You can’t paint that!“. The topic is taboo and censorship. This is an important issue at the moment with governments, educational institutions and big tech companies taking it upon themselves to decide which ideas can and can’t be discussed. This project would like to encourage artists to think about what it feels like to be told they should avoid expressing certain ideas or alternatively the necessity of limiting creative and intellectual expression to avoid causing offense. Examples; What went wrong with the internet that seemed like it was ushering in a new era of free expression, but now huge corporations control what can and can’t be said and one “incorrect” sentence to a friend online can make you lose your job or even go to prison? What are the taboos in your family that need to be broken? Do some marginalized communities face such hardship that they require special protection from criticism and ridicule?
The prize will be judged by a panel consisting of James Flames (sponsor) and Julia Filament (artist & organizer). The following criteria will be used to judge the works:
Top 25 submissions will be displayed in a month-long gallery show in NSDM Fuse Gallery, Amsterdam in Spring 2020.
