Venus febriculosa, the website devoted to contemporary literature and the art and design of books, is hosting its ninth design contest called: Visualizing Verse: The Narrative of Illustration. A particularly evocative poem has been chosen and Venus febriculosa is inviting artists from all over the world to come up with an illustration of this text — as ‘literal’ as possible, in visual terms, to the text. The top ten entries will be included in an academic publication and the winner will be awarded $500.
