Ugly People Literary Magazine is a new literary venture whose first volume will include a dedicated art and photography section. The editors have issued an open call for work that engages the theme of BODY, interpreted at the artist's discretion. The magazine's name signals an interest in work that resists conventional ideals of beauty or polish; the call itself is deliberately capacious, welcoming collages, photography, paintings, and drawings without prescribing a single medium or approach. Because this is Volume One, accepted artists will be part of the magazine's founding visual roster. The call does not specify honoraria, print run, or distribution details, and no prize is attached. What is offered is publication in a literary magazine whose editorial identity is still being defined—an opportunity for artists whose work contends with the body as subject, material, or site of meaning. The curatorial vision is intentionally open-ended: the editors state only that they want to see art dealing with BODY, however the artist interprets that theme. That openness places the burden of argument on the submitted work itself. Artists should consider how their images will read alongside writing in a literary context, and how a single image or small group of images can hold its own within a volume rather than a gallery wall. The editors also note a specific interest in cover art proposals, which suggests that one submitted image may be considered for a more prominent placement.
