We at the 22 are taking a year-end break (Dec 19th-29th) to give everyone who works and helps out at The 22 time to spend with their loved ones and reconnect to the world, without a mouse at hand. It’s a time of rest and refreshment. That being said, we will be doing some pick up work including reading and reviewing the many submissions we’ve received for the collage volume.We will be accepting submissions until January 30th, and highly encourage you to send them in during the next 2 weeks if you can!
Thank you again, for all the amazing support and kindness you have shown this project. We couldn’t have done it without you, each and every one. We are truly looking forward to what the New Year brings and are wishing love, happiness, and the ability to listen and understand compassionately for everyone this holiday season.
And now, The 22 Blog, 2012, in review…
One
Who wants for nothing
Whose life was spent
As a shadow
Doesn’t wish
To hear
The rebukes
Of the wise,
Only the songs
Of fools

Things are slowly starting to repair in NY after a week of dealing with Hurricane Sandy. Many things are back to normal, many are not. Trains are still out, people’s homes are still destroyed and it’s getting cold out. The resolve and strength of New Yorker’s in numbers is amazing and the efforts from the past week are humbling. We ask you to please take a moment to remember those that are still in need. Click here to view large list of resources and outlets that have listed ways to volunteer, donate, and help. The 22 will be donating all profits made from sales of the print magazines in November and December to the Red Cross relief efforts for Sandy. Please consider buying a copy HERE. Editor Cat Gilbert has also donated artwork to Greenpointers charity raffle. Tickets are $10 and 100% of all ticket sales will go to NY Cares. You can see all prizes and purchase tickets HERE.

I’m so pleased to introduce you to two excellent interns who are helping make the magnificence of Volume 3 possible. I’m completely honored to have the brains of these talented folks contributing to the magazine. We’ve had a lot of help over the years but the interns are often in the thick of it, helping to put the behemoth that is the magazine itself together. I cannot thank everyone enough who contributes to this project and particularly these worker bees. Give them a round of applause and if you are interested in jumping into the fray of Volume 3/III/Three check out our intern/volunteer guidelines here.
Bradley Tsalyuk was born in L.A. He attended L.A. County High School for the Arts with a focus on visual arts. He now studies at the Musem of Fine Arts in Boston where he focuses on interdisciplinary art making employing performance, sculpture, installation, and photography.

A little update on Volume 3 of The 22 Magazine, we are currently still in the process on deciding on contributors for Volume 3/III/Three. As always the decision has proven to be twice as hard as more and more talented folk submit. That being said, we are still looking for the perfect pieces of written word (particularly fiction or nonfiction pieces) to accompany most of this beautiful art and music. We will be extending the deadline for writing submissions only to June 12th. Included below is a list of “inspiration” or ideas about what we are looking for in a story. Good luck and thank you for all the amazing submissions so far. Truly an honor to review them all!
Inspiration list:
Geometries
Car Crash
Math
Numbers
Arctic or “Hidden” worlds
Plants
Monsters
Birds
Evolution

In celebration of the impending Vol. 3/III/Three, we’re launching our first chapbook edition this month! The Rule of Three is a new section where we post three photos or artwork and ask writers to write a short work responding to or narrating the images, or musicians or sound artists to respond with music to accompany the images and words (performance work is also welcome.) Chosen submissions will be posted on the 22 blog and considered for a future small book documenting each session. Only three participants, one writer, one musician and the original artist will be asked to participate in the printed book. We ask that written submissions are kept to around 1000 words and music submissions kept to under 15 minutes.
RULE OF THREE #1:
The first participant for the project is Eleanor Leonne Bennett. Eleanor is a 16 year old internationally award winning photographer and artist who has won first places with National Geographic,The World Photography Organisation, Nature’s Best Photography.

Her art is globally exhibited , having shown work in London, Paris, Indonesia, Los Angeles,Florida, Washington, Scotland,Wales, Ireland,Canada,Spain,Germany, Japan, Australia, and The Environmental Photographer of the year Exhibition (2011) amongst many other locations.
