SNAPline is our publication focused on printmaking and contemporary art writing, and is published three times annually. We are interested in hearing your ideas on topics related to printmaking that engage, critique, and/or challenge our notions of print works. Contributions could include: editorials or essays; exhibition, book, or film reviews; artist interviews or profiles; visual essays, illustrations, or comics…and more. Each publication has a specific theme; you’re invited to pitch us an idea to the theme that interests you. We look forward to hearing from you!
To revolt is second nature to many of us. Born not from desire, but the necessity to persist and thrive. Overt, complex, subtle, or simple, the act of revolting can take many forms, often impacted by the systems we exist within, and the ones we are pushing back against. Capacity can be limited amongst those most impacted, and every effort holds value.
Revolution is born in community and has a longstanding and intertwined history within print media. The ability to proliferate printed information has naturally gone hand in hand with community centered spaces, shared needs, and desire for change. This tradition continues into contemporary practice, even while technology and the ability to reach many is far exceeded through digital platforms.
For the upcoming edition of SNAPline, we are engaging with the theme ‘revolt.’ Send us your pitches that engage with this edition’s theme. As always, we are interested in connections to print and print culture.
We welcome a broad range of contributions- Articles, Interviews, Visual Essays, Illustration & Comics- which are all celebrated and welcomed.
