      RU Evolved? Artists Reflect on Darwin @ 200
      January 11 - February 27, 2009

      February 12, 2009 will mark Charles Darwin's 200th birthday. The year 2009 also marks the 150th anniversary of the publication of his seminal work, On the Origin of Species (1859). Anticipating an outpouring of worldwide Darwin observances, we ask artists to consider the meaning of his life and work and reveal to us any suitable historical or contemporary insights. Deadline for submissions is October 24, 2008.
      Full details and prospectus on our website.
