Design A Cover for ISM And Get Your Art Judged By Joe

Directly from Joe Hahn and Noel A. of SURU:

ISM: a community project, a non-profit arts organization based in Long Beach but heard worldwide, is again proving that art is a democratic institution for all by launching the “Space Available Cover Contest”. Jumping off with its Summer Issue (out now at select retailers, galleries, finer boutiques and online @ www.ISMcommunity.org), this contest is giving all artists, both emerging and established alike, equal chance to be the cover artist for the Autumn 2007 Issue.

To help judge the entries, ISM: a community project has assembled a group of some of the most definitive voices in the arts world. Representing every facet of the arts, this panel of 12 judges known as the ISM Luminaries, is made up of RZA, Anthony Mandler, Kat Von D, Jeff Staple, Rickey Kim, Andrew Hosner, Joe Hahn, Jonathan Levine, Amber Tamblyn, Alix Sloan, Mark Murphy and Derrick Brown.

Guidelines for Submission of work:

+Use any medium (illustration, painting, photography, etc.)

+Include our logo (download @ www.ISMcommunity.org)

+Inspire the world

+All submissions must be in by July 21st 2007

+All submissions need to be no larger than 8.5 x 11 inches

+All submissions must be e-mailed to [email protected]

For more information on the “Space Available Cover Contest”, the ISM Luminaries, our organization, upcoming events and exhibitions, how to get involved and how you can make a donation, please visit www.ISMcommunity.org

It should be noted that this art contest is for the chance to have your own work featured on a magazine cover, and therefore is not meant to be Linkin Park influenced. All artwork should be original work by the artist and not fan art for Joe of Linkin Park as this will most likely not be chosen by the artists.

Aside from that, good luck to all who enter, and hopefully we will see one our very own LPA member's featured on the next issue of ISM magazine!

Thanks to Joe Hahn and Noel of SURU for the info!
