To clarify: content on Rhizome Rare is taken from Raw and published to
Rare by Superusers, volunteer editors who index (attach keywords) and
select images to accompany texts. There is a list of all of our
Superusers here and what they do:
http://rhizome.org/community/superusers.rhiz(I don't think this page is totally up to date.)
Exhibition opportunities are among the most desirable kinds of
opportunities posted to Rhizome, and while we don't fact-check or
endorse what comes through the lists, Superusers do their best to
select texts and announcements they think will be of use or interest.
