The New England Journal of Aesthetic Research seeks nominations for the best art of the last year in the New England region.
"The aim of the awards, which are organized by The New England Journal of Aesthetic Research, is to promote a more exciting local art scene by honoring the best art made here and exhibits organized here in 2008. And anyone can make nominations, which The Journal will compile into a ballot. Then winners will be chosen by votes of (1) local active art journalists and (2) anyone else who wants to vote - and will be announced in terms of these two categories of voters."
Some broad categories to consider: favorite local artist, local curator, local show, new media, photography, conceptually-driven installation/performance (including video thereof), favorite gallery show, favorite school show, favorite museum show, favorite historical show, favorite contemporary show, best survey/retrospective, favorite solo show, favorite group show, favorite public art (or best non-exhibition space project), favorite on-line project, favorite outdoors project, favorite art book/publication.
