OBJECTIVE
BLUE COLLAR CRIME, as a show, produces work that highlights working class solidarity and seeks out humor, invention, pleasure, and irreverence in the instability of our current moment. The exhibition is borne out of a recognition that corporate interests operate by a different set of rules and profits at the expense of our collective well being. Private industry’s failure to contribute their share of taxes, destruction of the environment, stagnation of wages, monopolization of industry, and so forth. In short, their white collar crime has produced an increasingly precarious world with which our only response can be blue collar crime.

The exhibition BLUE COLLAR CRIME distinguishes itself from the existing connotations of blue-collar crime as less sophisticated or more violent than white collar crime. BLUE COLLAR CRIME learns its lessons as the bastard step-sibling to white collar crime; it is subversive, furtive, unpredictable, conspiratorial, and fugitive. It delights, confuses, and surprises; it is the absurd born from the absurd. Through the exhibition, we define BLUE COLLAR CRIME and a language of possibility from a place of uncertainty.

GUIDELINES
Artists may submit works of any medium that:

-Reimagines blue collar crime (for example, defying hostile architecture, starting an illegal garden in an abandoned plot, disrupting ATM’s, or even memes that uses humor to encourage dissent)

-Represents blue collar joy, and/or class solidarity

-Responds to white collar crime, or the history of white/blue collar crime

-Responds to the categorization of different colored, collared crimes

-Responds to any part of the objective

Artists may submit multiple works of any medium.
All artwork submitted must be ready to hang or install.
Artists outside of Los Angeles should be prepared to cover the cost of shipping.
Artists working in new media, film, or video may be required to use your own equipment for the exhibition.
Extra consideration will be given to pieces that are mischievous, fun, critical.

Salary: Not applicable 

Benefits: Selected artists will be included in a group exhibition titled BLUE COLLAR CRIME debuting in December 2025, presented by a gallery in Los Angeles (details will be provided for artists who are invited to participate in the show).

Education requirements: None 

Deadline to apply: November 15, 2025
