Give Us Some Good Face!
By Rizzuto

Thu Aug 07, 2008 - Conservative Punk is teaming up with S.E. Cupp and Brett Joshpe, authors of Why You're Wrong About the Right, to produce a virtual portrait exhibit. The show will feature photographs of conservatives and Republicans who don’t fit the common stereotypes, and will run on our websites for a limited time.

Tentatively titled "Giving Good Face," the project will bring together anthropology and politics, and will look to refute the well-worn narrative that conservatives can accurately be summed up in sound bites and stereotypes. This sociological experiment is a commentary on the reassuring qualities of photo-journalism and the breaking down of characterological, generation and identity politics. It should also provide a witty and provocative look at political caricature.

To submit a portrait for consideration, please adhere to these guidelines, which are intended to provide uniformity in the presentation:

-Please only include self-portraits.

-Please submit as color digital photographs (jpegs, at least 300 pixels/inch) without enhancements or alterations.

-Please use clean, white back drops in photos.

-Please submit by August 15 and include your full name, age, and city and state where you reside. Your last name will not be used.

-Please submit photos to wrongaboutright@yahoo.com.
