We welcome submissions from artists who broadly identify with the theme of Diversity and Inclusion in their artistic practices and experiences including, but not limited to, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, religion, and mental or physical abilities.

Eyelevel supports the mounting of our major projects through successful project grant applications, and endeavors to cover materials, travel and production costs in addition to paying CARFAC project and presentation artist fees. Major projects are often paired with an artist talk or small publication and can take the form of exhibitions, research residencies, and/or performances.

Eyelevel does not operate a formal gallery space, applications for Major Projects should consider our model of programming from an artistic and logistical standpoint. Eyelevel will work with selected artists to secure appropriate venues for their project, and programs 1-2 years in advance, with all major projects occurring between June and November.

If you would like to pitch your idea to Eyelevel in person or over the phone, please contact Sally Wolchyn-Raab, the Artistic Director (director [arobas] eyelevel [point] art) to arrange a meeting which will be recorded for the jury.

Applications for Major Projects are accepted from artists and groups at all stages of their careers who meet Canada Council’s definition of a professional artist – joint/group applications or guest curatorial applications will also be considered.

Canada Council defines a professional artist as someone who:has specialized training in the artistic field (not necessarily in academic institutions)
is recognized as a professional by his or her peers (artists working in the same artistic tradition)
is committed to devoting more time to artistic activity, if possible financially
has a history of public presentation or publication.

NEED SOME IDEAS? CONSIDER…
•    How is your project compatible with Eyelevel’s roaming programming approach?
•    How do you see your work being supported by the alternative space it may be presented in?
•    How does your project impact the place in which it is presented? How might its location inform and impact your work?
•    How adaptable and flexible is your project?
•    When will your project take place?
•    Where does it take place, what borders does it cross, whose territory does it occupy?
•    Does it rely on research—formal or experiential—conducted on-site?
•    Does it require public or private space?
•    Who is the intended audience for your project?
•    Who is included or excluded in your project? Will your project include populations not usually reached by artist run centres?
•    As an artist, are you a host or guest?
•    How does your project reach your audience—in person, online, in text, by oral transmission?
•    Why are you working in this way?
•    Does your work disrupt, question, or reimagine the perceived neutrality of the traditional “white cube” gallery?
•    Does your project create “space” in other non-physical terms—space for discussion, space for emotions to be experienced, space for voices to be heard, or perspectives to be seen?
•    What structures does your project build, rely on, perpetuate, need, etc.?

We welcome questions! Reach out to Eyelevel’s Artistic Director, Sally Wolchyn-Raab at director [arobas] eyelevel [point] art or call us at 902-425-6412

Video Out Call for Submissions: What is (a) Punk?
This call-for-submissions starts off with a transcription of a conversation between artist, director of Metro Media art centre, and punk documentarian, Lenore Herb, and her then collaborator/partner Dermot Foley. Late one night, near the end of the ’70s, the two are deep in a discussion on what they call ‘The Psycho-Sexual Power Game’ and the problems—

L: With avant-garde art!
D: Living on the edge, working on the edge, dealing with everyone else who is on the edge—
L: —yeah—
D: —making it back to the mainstream as a product—
L: —so that people who live on the edge can survive.

These lines stick with me: “Living on the edge, working on the edge, dealing with everyone else who is on the edge—so that people who live on the edge can survive.”

What is (a) Punk? And are you one? Video Out invites works that address, identify, engage with, and challenge this defiant, idealistic, and problematic label. History influences aesthetics, and aesthetics represent an ideology.  What does it mean to be punk today?

To submit, please send a weblink of the work (Wetransfers not accepted), a short synopsis, and an artist bio to distribution [arobas] vivomediaarts [point] com. Digital (including digitized film) submissions only, maximum two submissions per artist.

Send your submission with the subject: WhatisPunk_LastName by Nov 1st 2019.

Towner International: Open Call
Open call for British and International artists for major UK exhibition

Application deadline: January 17, 2020, 3:15pm

www.townereastbourne.org.uk
Instagram

Towner International is a major new biennial exhibition of contemporary art that will take place in 2020, featuring British and International artists at Towner Art Gallery, Eastbourne, UK. Artists can submit works for consideration to Towner International through an online Open Call process. An esteemed panel of guest judges including Polly Staple (Director, Chisenhale Gallery) and Noelle Collins, (Curator, Towner Art Gallery) will select artists for the inaugural Towner International exhibition. The Brewers Prize of GBP 10,000 will be awarded to an overall winner chosen from the exhibiting artists.

The institution welcomes submissions from professional artists working in all media, including but not restricted to painting, drawing, print, sculpture, sound, performance, photography, film and installation.

Submissions can be made by artists working across the UK and internationally, at least one third of exhibiting artists will be selected from Towner’s coastal region – being born or based in Sussex, Kent and Hampshire.

While this is primarily an opportunity to present work within Towner’s gallery spaces, site specific and off-site installations in the Eastbourne area will also be considered. All works submitted must be available for exhibition from June 13 to September 6, 2020.

Towner’s location on England’s South Coast has been at the core of the gallery’s identity for almost a century and Towner welcomes submissions from artists with a connection to this unique coastal region. For almost 100 years, landscape and location have shaped key concerns within Towner’s programme and defined the gallery’s Collection. As Towner launches this open call, the United Kingdom is undergoing the monumental and arduous transition of leaving the European Union. Considerations of place, identity, landscape and environment have become increasingly significant as we anticipate the consequences of this action, and now more than ever it is important to open opportunities for an international conversation. The exhibition hopes to address how the artistic community is recording and responding to economic, political, cultural, and environmental changes that are unfolding across the World today.

Vous êtes un artiste ou un professionnel étranger de la culture et séjournez à Paris dans le cadre de votre travail ? Vous pouvez déposer une demande de logement à la Cité internationale universitaire de Paris en ligne : http://workflow.ciup.fr/citeu/site/login.php

Certains logements sont spécifiquement adaptés à l’activité artistique : la Cité internationale dispose de deux ateliers-logements pour artistes plasticiens et six studios avec cabine insonorisée pour les musiciens. Les différentes maisons de la Cité internationale peuvent également accueillir des artistes et professionnels de la culture en fonction de la disponibilité de leurs logements (sans espace de travail). Le tarif des logements varient selon le type, le confort et la durée du séjour.

Si votre nationalité est représentée par une maison de la Cité internationale, renseignez-vous auprès d’elle pour connaître la démarche à suivre. Cf. http://www.ciup.fr “les maisons”.

Si cette maison représentant votre nationalité n’a pas de disponibilité, votre demande pourra être transmise aux autres maisons de la CIUP, sous réserve de la validation de la demande par la CIUP.

Les statuts de la cité prévoient en effet que pour y être admis, la venue de l’artiste doit s’inscrire dans le cadre d’un projet précis soutenu institutionnellement (venue sur invitation d’une structure culturelle française, ou sur envoi d’une structure culturelle du pays de résidence de l’artiste, pour une réalisation spécifique). Cette institution doit soutenir financièrement le projet, et donc le séjour de l’artiste à Paris.

D’autre part, la cité prévoit dans ses statuts que les artistes soient étrangers ou en mobilité internationale.

Review Series Call for Papers
CMA Journal // SFU School for Contemporary Arts

The Comparative Media Arts Journal is pleased to invite individuals to submit to an ongoing
call for re-views. Supplementary to CMAs semi-annual themed issues, the review series is a
continuous academic platform that asks scholars, artists, curators, writers, and post-
secondary students of all levels to engage in critical contemplation and reviews of
exhibitions, art events, and
publications.

Reviewed monthly by the managing editors of the CMA board, the submissions must
demonstrate a clear, conceptual, and insightful understanding of their source material. In
addition, all reviewers should author a critical and comparative position of the exhibition,
event, or book that they are reviewing. Exhibitions reviews should carefully consider the
character, practice, and concept of exhibited artists

as well as artworks while also critiquing the curatorial methodologies behind the exhibition.
Do the curatorial intentions as outlined by texts and the structure of the exhibition support
the artistic content? Does

the artistic content support the exhibition/institutions intentions? Is the relationship between
the artworks and curation dynamic and innovative? In what ways are the exhibitions
successful at harbouring conversations, considerations, and possibilities for the future? In
what ways is the exhibition lacking at making an affective and effective experience
for
diverse audiences? Reviews of art events ” which can include exhibition programming
such as artist talks, curatorial tours, workshops, and so on” should summarize the scope of
the event and its intentions while also

analyzing its success as a tool for public engagement and learning. In what ways did the
event succeed in engaging a deeper understanding of a practice, institution, or stream of
thought? As a participant and active member of the audience, how could the event have
been improved to engage a deep and contemplative understanding of its material? In what
ways did the curator or artist administering a talk, tour, or workshop engage an
understanding of their curatorial or artistic process? As a knowledgeable reviewer, what is
your critical opinion of their positions, ideas, and methods?

Similarly, book or article reviews require a developed summary and analysis of the authors
positions and arguments. Who does the publication serve? What kind of researcher would
benefit
from engaging

with it? Additionally, publication reviewers should demonstrate a comparative analysis
between the content of the reviewed subject and their own developed research interests.
Using their own knowledge of

particular subjects, what sorts of ideas regarded in the publication can be expanded on or
are innovative approaches to considering particular concepts?

The content of reviews are not limited to these suggestions. Other formats of creative
practice can be analyzed such as films, concerts, theatre and so on. However, it is
imperative that all reviews demonstrate a position of critique and an understanding of
contemporary curating, artistic practice, or arts programming.

As a platform the review series works to bring awareness to the diverse and creative
happenings in Canadian and international art communities. The review series also provides
an opportunity for individuals to develop and articulate critical points of view in relation to
diverse art practices as an
open-access platform for publication.

Accepted reviews can range from 500-1500 words in length. All submissions should follow
the Chicago Manual of Style and utilize in-text citations.

Reviews will be accepted and considered on the last day of each month and published
shortly there after. The next deadline for submissions will be November 30th 2019. Any
review submitted after the deadline will be considered for publication the following month.

Please submit all formatted and properly edited reviews to Mallory Gemmel at
cma_journal [arobas] sfu [point] ca including ATTN REVIEW SERIES in the subject line.

Should your review be accepted for publication the journal will reach out to provide a writers
contract and CMA formatting guidelines. We thank you for your interest and encourage all to
submit work. On occasion, rejected submissions may be considered for publication should
editing suggestions and requirements be met.

Date de tombée : le lundi 16 décembre 2019, 23 h 59

La mission du Centre

CIRCA art actuel est un centre d’artistes autogéré qui soutient l’expérimentation et l’innovation. Sa mission consiste à diffuser les œuvres d’artistes en art actuel, toutes générations confondues, qui placent l’objet sculptural au cœur de leur démarche. Le Centre soutient les projets qui s’inscrivent autant dans l’esprit d’une pratique traditionnelle de la sculpture que ceux qui développent des formes sculpturales et installatives hybrides, naissant du contact avec d’autres médiums (dessin, imprimé, photographie, numérique ou peinture). Le tout témoigne d’une volonté affirmée de participer au soutien et au développement des pratiques sculpturales et installatives, dans un esprit d’ouverture et de renouvellement.

Les critères de représentativité extraits de la politique de programmation

Les expositions du CIRCA art actuel sont sélectionnées par le comité de programmation formé de membres actifs, de membres du conseil d’administration, de la directrice et d’un membre invité. La programmation vise à représenter une variété de générations, de provenances et un nombre équitable d’artistes hommes et femmes. Nous accordons une grande valeur à la diversité culturelle et à l’autochtonie et nous encourageons les artistes et commissaires membres de ces communautés à soumettre un dossier.

Les critères de sélection des dossiers sont les suivants :

– la pertinence du projet en regard des pratiques sculpturales et installatives hybrides;

– la singularité de la proposition artistique par rapport aux autres pratiques en art actuel;

– la variété des projets sélectionnés en fonction du type de pratiques.

Les cachets

Chaque artiste reçoit un cachet de 2036 $ pour une exposition solo.

Les commissaires reçoivent 1000 $ pour leur projet, qui doit investir les deux galeries du CIRCA art actuel, et les artistes du projet reçoivent le cachet CARFAC selon le nombre d’artistes de l’exposition.

The selected Emerging Curator will be responsible for all aspects of exhibition development including preparing a short-written statement, coordinating with artists, designing the exhibition, and developing content for all promotional materials. We will provide mentorship, staff support, curatorial fee, artist fees, budget for installation, installation team, promotion and documentation of the exhibition.

We are seeking ideas for exhibitions/projects that are timely, experimental, and cross disciplinary in any medium or format. Alternative design and writing methodologies are also encouraged. For the purposes of this call, emerging is defined by those practicing 5 years or less in curatorial roles.

The selected exhibition/project will be developed over time and the final installation/presentation will take place in winter 2020/21.

Cambridge Art Galleries is committed to the inclusion of diverse voices and encourages applications from emerging curators of all backgrounds.

Appel aux textes et aux visuels

Numéro 135 • Métamorphoses et fluidité

Face à la censure des Suppliantes d’Eschyle par des militants qui se revendiquent antiracistes, le metteur en scène Philippe Brunet explique : « Le théâtre est le lieu de la métamorphose, pas le refuge des identités. Le grotesque n’a pas de couleur. Les conflits n’empêchent pas l’amour. On y accueille l’Autre, on devient l’Autre parfois le temps d’une représentation. Eschyle met en scène à l’échelle du monde. » En cette époque de crispation identitaire, où l’individu est réduit à son appartenance à un groupe, à son allégeance à une idéologie, il faut envisager la métamorphose comme une fluidité entre soi et l’autre, mais aussi entre l’original et la copie, entre le vrai et le faux. À l’ère de la technologie de fabrication des images (deep fake) et de certains médias (fake news), les procédures d’authentification ne sont plus adéquates. On craint d’une part la falsification du réel, mais on peut d’autre part assister à de nouvelles fluidités : de nouveaux contenus émergent sur les réseaux, sans auteurs ou dont les auteurs sont fictifs ; ils se métamorphosent afin d’acquérir une plus grande puissance de diffusion et de contamination. Ce contenu viral connaîtra des mutations qui lui permettront de contaminer le plus grand nombre d’individus et de réquisitionner leur temps-cerveau. Ainsi, tous les contenus, signes, images, gestes, ont pour mode d’être une métamorphose sans fin, ne connaissant plus d’origine.

off centre is an online publication dedicated to writing about contemporary art and artists

outside of large metropolitan centres. We believe it is important to provide opportunities for
and highlight the practices of artists, writers, and curators who produce and exhibit in these
regions, challenging the expectation that culture emerges in the centre and works its way
beyond.

off centre is seeking submissions for critical writing about artists, exhibitions and art related
events that take place outside of large Canadian art centres such as Toronto, Vancouver
and Montral.

We are looking for:
– Critical short form reviews (500-1000 words)

– CV (2-3 pages)
– Bio (150- 250 words)
– title of show, venue name, full list of artists (and curators if applicable)
– additional contact info including: email address, website, social media handles
– Short pitch (200 words max) for a piece you are working on or would like to write, along
with a two-page writing sample, demonstrating your style and experience OR
– A completed article or review that has not previously been published (500 ” 1000 words)

Successful applicants must provide images of the exhibition, performance, or event for
reference for the published piece, with photo credit, or access to professional documentation

off centre believes that art writing should be accessible to a broad audience and not feel
exclusionary to those who do not have an academic background. Please write clearly and
provide context / definitions for any specific terminology.

Compile all submission material into a .docx or .pdf file and email your submission to
info [arobas] weareoffcentre [point] com

diverse cultural backgrounds, or otherwise underrepresented.
