Contemporary art practices in the rural community.

Nepal is the Best Value Destination to travel to. Nepal’s cultural landscape is every bit as diverse as its physical one. The spectacular Himalayas comprise the highest mountains on earth and boast a surreal landscape of snow-covered peaks sure to leave a powerful impression. The Himalayan country of Nepal, situated between India and China, offers some of the best access to these mountain peaks, where landscapes vary from subtropical valleys (complete with banana trees) to alpine forests (home to grazing yaks). Customs and traditions differ from one part of Nepal to another. A conglomeration lies in the capital city Kathmandu where cultures are blending to form a national identity. Kathmandu Valley has served as the country’s cultural metropolis since the unification of Nepal in the 18th Century. A prominent factor in a Nepali’s everyday life is religion. Adding color to the lives of Nepalese are festivals year-round which they celebrate with much pomp and joy. Food plays an important role in the celebration of these festivals. The capital is surrounded by a valley full of historic sites, ancient temples, shrines, and fascinating villages. Kathmandu is an incredibly diverse historic city with breathtaking Newari architecture, centuries-old Hindu and Buddhist religious sites. […]

Curated by Mana Pinto April 19th – May 31st, opening on Friday April 19th from 19h. In June 2019 Tangent Projects gallery opened its doors with its first exhibition, ELÁSTICO by Marina Rubio. Five years later, we are excited for Marina to return to the gallery with new work and a new exhibition, Hurgar hogar, curated by Mana Pinto. In this exhibition, Marina Rubio encourages us to connect with the past by introducing a practice where she collects and restores found ceramic fragments from her maternal grandmother’s house in Cabolafuente, Aragon. Her practice challenges the common belief that suggests that the lifespan of objects concludes when they break, and instead focuses on documenting these ruptures not as the end but as a starting point for a new narrative, generating new versions of objects capable of retaining memories beyond their utility. Images, videos, found fragments and altered objects become a link to the past, fusing stories and shared experiences between generations.

DUPLEX | Artists in Residence it’s an artist-run space, bringing together studios, a residency program and an independent art gallery, located in the center of Lisbon (Portugal), in Graça neighborhood.

Artist John van Oers redefines the concept of a ‘solo exhibition’ with the two-, three- and four-dimensional rearrangement of his own life. Personal anecdotes are often the reason for the sculptural interventions of John van Oers (Antwerp-BE, 1967). In the meantime, he has already redesigned so many memories in various exhibitions that he is also paying attention to the continuous line in his existence. In …ism project space he focuses on the ordering of his personal history, which is unique and universal at the same time. What remains of our historiography? And where does the science of the individual begin? Van Oers uses the different spaces within …ism to structure his vision in different dimensions and installations.

WITH CARE by Marija Brasnic   Vernissage: 05.05.2023 19-23h Opening times: 05.-14.05. 2023 Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday 14-19h 14-19h   Marija Brasnic explores the concept of calmness through a layered art process in the solo exhibition ‘With Care’ hosted by Studio Baustelle. A series of mixed media art objects created from 2021 to 2023 are exhibited. The primary material is the reflective surface of a mirror used as a base for acrylic paint. The idea of painting on mirrors started with the intention of giving another dimension to the work while keeping the same painting process on a two-dimensional surface. A mirror is a fragile material that needs to be treated with care. That has influenced the artist’s expression to slow down her process, making it more attentive and meditative.  The visitors are invited to merge with the reflective objects to slow down and possibly reflect on their experience. ​ Studio Baustelle, Berthelsdorfer Str. 11, 12043 Berlin www.marijabrasnic.com

Taking over the baton from Luxembourg and considering how to formulate the next part of the project, Sternberg focused on the strategies of […]

Production residency and artist retreat in Blanca, a small town in southern Spain. Duration: 2 weeks – 2 months. Open application process.

Kallirroi Ioannidou Markus Jäntti-Tuominen Oscar Veyrunes Carolin Bernhofer   12.08 – 21.08.2022 Opening: Friday, 12.08.2022, 6-10pm   To take reference, to offer, to deny. To play with references, to lay tracks or to solve traps. Four artistic positions gather around something that could be described as a sounding out of referencing, as a permanent locating in the change of being and world. The individual artistic positions do not correspond to each other in approach, materiality or narrative. Nevertheless, they create a multi-layered network of relationships and references, of mutual questioning and reinforcement. Ultimately, it is a dynamic that emerges from the compilation of these four positions. All artists live and work mainly in Berlin. Partly they are also active and at home in other European countries. The HilbertRaum as an open space, expecting the unexpected, is ideal to give this dynamic and the resulting exhibition Vague a new home. A general reference can arise through materiality, given locality, or familiar narratives. Things picked up from the street and other found objects enable a transition from the outside to the inside, from the general to the particular. Lines also transition, from one thing to another, from black to white. Colors mix […]

I thought of artist Neals Niat’s Mapanes Love series and lost myself in his use of pastel colours, banana trees, and words that are so familiar to me that they sound as if someone who knows me well is whispering them in my ear. I had created my own mapane.” Agnes Essonti Luque’s first solo exhibition in l’Hospitalet de Llobregat offers an intimate space for debate stemming from her ongoing research into the concepts of identity, representation and belonging. Her work connects us and yet at the same time returns us to a reality in which self-representation and the body are at the centre. For this project, Agnes has chosen to work with images, texts and objects charged with symbolism, thereby immersing us in a sensitive ritual that delves into her memory and at the same time draws on history to deconstruct the narrative of identity. Agnes Essonti Luque […]

Come explore the beauty and the techniques of raga in this nurturing environment, and learn how these rich traditions can illuminate your own musical voice.

Colors have their own symbolism in cultures, religions, politics, and history. Black and white are, strictly speaking, not colors. However, light and dark play a major role in art and design and have various symbolic meanings. Colors are wavelengths reflected by objects to the human eye. White is pure light and black is the absence of light. One of the reasons we are attracted to black is indeed its dichotomies. It is sophisticated and primitive, emotional and intellectual, it is a color that everyone responds strongly to, in one way or another. To further explore this characteristic of the color black — the fact that no two black colors are alike — Reinhardt said, “There is a black which is old and a black which is fresh. Lustrous black and dull black, black in sunlight and black in shadow.” In 2016, the Indian-born British artist Anish Kapoor provoked the fury of artists by securing the exclusive rights to use the blackest black color, known as Vantablack. Kapoor has been experimenting with the “super black” paint since 2014 and recently announced he will unveil a series of his first Vantablack sculptures during the Venice Biennale. Liberal and the radical idea of […]

Nepal is the Best Value Destination to travel to. Nepal’s cultural landscape is every bit as diverse as its physical one. The spectacular Himalayas comprise the highest mountains on earth and boast a surreal landscape of snow-covered peaks sure to leave a powerful impression. The Himalayan country of Nepal, situated between India and China, offers some of the best access to these mountain peaks, where landscapes vary from subtropical valleys (complete with banana trees) to alpine forests (home to grazing yaks). Customs and traditions differ from one part of Nepal to another. A conglomeration lies in the capital city,  Kathmandu, where cultures are blending to form a national identity. Kathmandu Valley has served as the country’s cultural metropolis since the unification of Nepal in the 18th Century. A prominent factor in Nepali’s everyday life is religion. Adding color to the lives of Nepalese are festivals the year round which they celebrate with much pomp and joy. Food plays an important role in the celebration of these festivals. Capital is surrounded by a valley full of historic sites, ancient temples, shrines, and fascinating villages. Kathmandu is an incredibly diverse historic city with breathtaking Newari architecture, centuries-old Hindu and Buddhist religious sites. […]

Keloid – Thelma Vanahí Curated by Paloma Chavez Muente April 8th – May 27th, opening Friday, April 8th, 6:30 – 8:30 pm, performance at 7 pm A Keloid evokes the scarring of a wound. The thickened scar tissue leads to the question of how the wound occurred and provokes lifting the layers to remember what happened.

The exhibition brings together a variety of works that include photography, collage, audiovisual installation and textile. Thelma Vanahí is a Dominican-Spanish visual artist and photographer based in Barcelona. Since 2010, she has developed extensive multidisciplinary projects with a participatory methodology about Dominican culture and its imaginaries, providing an insight into identity and life in the Caribbean country.

End of the West; A Live Art Building Workshop August 20 – 27 , 2022 Onsite Workshop Imagination has been one of the saddest casualties of the 21’st century (along with Opacity, a Sense of Humour, etc…)  It is a collective cultural muscle that has atrophied with the over exercising of Facts,  -which have a very important places in the world at large, of course- but, in the realm of creativity to stop at the Facts is to become a reporter, not an artist. At Arts Letters and Numbers, End of the West will run a week-long workshop on Live Art Building, taught from each the basis of the three disciplines that we know best.  Together, as a cohort, we will find, embody, and place stories in a created space, to dazzle our -as yet- unknown audience.  We will resuscitate Imagination; giving it CPR by breathing into it Mystery and Wonder about this crazy planet we live on.  We’re going to make stuff, that has never existed before… End of the West is a group of artists who met around a backyard fire and came to know each other through the stories we told, and the tales we made up.  […]

In a world of increasing polarization and conflict, those who do not choose sides are left to wonder where to stand.  “Neutral Ground” seeks to create a zone of peace by displaying works of art that are free from heavy sensory output including themes and messages, whether intentional or not.

Thanks to our personal contacts we are very proud to present a program of films by Ukrainian film makers. The film program curated by Nadia Parfan shall give Ukrainians a voice through their film makers and provide insights into a war that started many years ago without being noticed by the rest of the world. VARTA1 by Yuriy Hrytsyna, 2015 (English Subtitles), 63 Min. An attempt to reconstruct the atmosphere and the reactions at the end of the Euromaidan, when activists in Lviv started to perform law enforcement functions. The film uses walkie-talkie communications of the activist patrols to ask questions about the nature of the revolution. What is self organization? How is democracy created? Who decides a punishment? Where are the center and the periphery of the revolution? Where does it start and where does it end? A brief power vacuum turns into a moment of strongest potentiality when beliefs of the past and strategies for the future are discussed. The film tries to look at the mundane spaces of the city and understand, whether historical and revolutionary uncertainty is still there.   The program was put together in collaboration with Nadia Parfan, film maker, co-founder of 86 Festival […]

Thanks to our personal contacts we are very proud to present a program of films by Ukrainian film makers. The film program curated by Nadia Parfan shall give Ukrainians a voice through their film makers and provide insights into a war that started many years ago without being noticed by the rest of the world. #WARNOTE by the ukrainian film maker Roman Lyubiy from 2021 (with English Subtitles), 70 Min. Personal videos from the phones, camcorders, cameras and GoPros of Ukrainian soldiers are woven into a surreal journey to the frontline of the war with Russia. The film shows a bizarre world whose laws are quite different from what we are used to. The behaviour is different, the relationships unfold differently and the humour takes on different notes. The heroes wake up and fall asleep, rejoice and cry, always feeling that the recording may end at any moment.

We want to hear what artists are concerned with in the world today, and how your artistic response is a call to arms, a healing process, or a road map to a different, better future. For the first time, the Fringe will not provide a curatorial theme to determine our programming. Instead, we want artists to tell your stories with authenticity, and in doing so, shape the conversations that the Fringe offers to the public. Our focus on presenting work fuelled by socially engaged practice remains. That means we are looking for robust artistic processes and accessible presentations that are centred on responding to gaps in communities, collaborative, and tackling current issues of the day. We are looking for contemporary, cutting edge and socially engaged works that can be presented as live or digital performances and participatory events. We welcome proposals that use alternative models of presentations to include the disabled and immunocompromised, to encourage environmental sustainability, and/or to reduce air travel.

Exhibition 1 April – 20 May, 2022; Application deadline 15 February, 2022 In 2022, Group Global 3000 is starting the exhibition Transformation. We are calling for applications from artists in our international call. This is the first part of a vision in our back-to-back exhibitions Transformation and The Good Life. The euphoria of technological progress is over. We can see that unlimited growth does not fit to a limited earth. We are already experiencing the first answers from the natural world. The dream of endless growth is coming to an end and at best leads to transformation. By transformation, we mean the process that leads globally to a good life for people and sustainable use of natural resources. We see social and cultural change as feasible, because we have the economic, technical, and scientific prerequisites. Yet this life is difficult to imagine for most people. Convention stands in the way of transformation. We want to show the picture of the good life in the future. A framework has been sketched out by economists and natural scientists: Sufficiency reduces production and consumption, efficiency uses material and energy more productively, and consistency includes nature-friendly material cycles, recycling and waste avoidance. The value […]

Tangent Projects studios are now accepting applications for their studio residency programme for 2022/23.

The project consists of installations located in three rooms in the building of the Kyiv Institute of Automation. The project was based on the text generated by the algorithm from the explanations to the works of the Future Generation Art Prize (PinchukArtCentre) in Kyiv. The explications were downloaded to the InferKit computer program. (This text generation tool takes the text you provide and generates what you think will be next using a state-of-the-art neural network. It can be configured and create text of any length on virtually any topic). The result proposed by the program is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye from the usual texts-concepts that have to be read at exhibitions of contemporary art. The Future Generation Art Prize was chosen as the most appropriate generalized model, as it presents the ideas of artists from many countries around the world. The coincidence with the word “generation”, which translates from English as “generation” and as “generation”, in this context not only emphasizes the limitations of language tools, but also refers to the prospect of generating ideas with artificial intelligence and competing with people in the arts. in future. Each of the participants worked on the organization of space […]

STAY SILENT DRIFT DEEP  is a meditation on how one navigates through times of trauma. Each of the four artists sift the ark well of their internal structures, probing for a way to examine and resolve their individual dilemmas. Is there peace in solitude? Can my mental health be mapped? Where are the spaces for self-discovery? How deep does this grace go? The exhibition asks viewers to untether their expectations and fall into the turbulence of contemporary lived experience.  STAY SILENT DRIFT DEEP is the culmination of a 6 month artist residency at The SPAO Centre, where each artist worked on personal passion projects. The artists negotiated between the challenges of ongoing pandemic restrictions, and staying true to their artistic pursuits. The result is a timely and thoughtful experience that pursues authenticity despite external pressures. Hours of operation The Gallery is open Wednesday to Sunday from 12PM to 5PM. Holiday exceptions apply. The gallery is free and open to the public, as well as wheelchair accessible. For more information, contact [email protected] The SPAO Centre is home to the Ottawa region’s only independent and critical gallery space dedicated to lens-based art.

This exhibition suggests a subjective cutting through time and space of the work of three Argentine artists, whose paths intersect at the city of Berlin. Here they find and observe each other, they study their ways,techniques and their relationship. As a result they offer us a universe of reinterpretations. Their work accounts for the forces of the collective, for the importance of one Other, who would help us rediscover and thus resignify ourselves. Always. Because there are no isolated points in space, but an infinite network of relationships. And from each encounter results a possibility of new hybrids that refuse to be crystalized in a permanent form. This dialogue is ephemeral. It […]

Regart, centre d’artistes en art actuel, présente Télé-Chevreuil, une œuvre numérique de Boris Dumesnil-Poulin. L’œuvre évolutive sera logée sur le site de Regart pour un an à partir de la mise en ligne le 15 octobre, où le public pourra observer les développements de Télé-Chevreuil. Une diffusion en galerie aura lieu du 5 novembre au 3 décembre. Télé-Chevreuil présentera une série de vidéos qui mettent en scène des images animées, ralenties ou immobiles.

We are inviting visual and new media artists to submit their artwork for the exhibition program of the 8th Student International Film Festival. For the last seven years, STIFF Festival has produced a rich accompanying program that elaborates and complements the thematic focus of its film program. With the emphasis on contemporary art practices, STIFF’s exhibition program gathers artists from all over the globe, dealing with relevant social, political, as well as intimate aspects of everyday life.  This year the festival is giving attention to the Body, and the exhibition program aims to explore socially relevant ways of interpreting the body in a contemporary environment saturated with images.  What is the relationship between a body and the moving image? Are we our bodies or is the body just merchandise we trade on the labor market and offer in intimate relationships? How to position ourselves in a world where objects move more freely than people? When is our body an instrument of knowledge, interaction, and intimacy with the world, and when is it a space of discomfort and restriction? Do we allow our bodies to be playful? We encourage a view of the body as productive and creative, the body as a process that […]

For Full Details and To Apply:  https://vestigegallery.com/index.php/clockwork/ Like Clockwork seeks to showcase works of art that address the nature of time. From birth, our daily routines, anxieties on aging, death, rebirth, to creation and destruction, the forms of time give shape to human experience. Traditional thought, from China to ancient Greece, embodies time not only in gods and goddesses but also in the various devices which measure and grasp it. Time as a flux is apparent in the flow of grains in an hourglass; time as eternal return, in the circling aeons of the Indian and Maya calendars or the tail-eating serpent Ouroboros; time as a universal pattern of synchronous events, in the I-Ching or the astrologers’ intricate figure-work. The paradoxes inherent in these parallel ways of conceiving time reveal the mysterious Coincidence of Opposites which underlies the cosmos. It’s as the old adage says.. all “like clockwork”… We are accepting works from emerging, mid-career, and/or professional artists. Work should somehow relate to the theme of the show. “Like Clockwork” In-Person opening reception party will be held Saturday, January 8th, 2022 at 6 PM.   ELIGIBILITY “Like Clockwork” is open to any artists over age 18, within the United States and Canada.

In her sculptural work Antonia Breme deals with display elements in the context of store window displays. She examines the artistic practice of designing window displays as an alternative means of income and, in this context, addresses the question of the so-called “money job“, that many artists perform in addition to their artistic work. In this way, she reflects on her own position in the tension between artistic autonomy and economic necessity. The exhibited sculptures and objects were originally designed for a window display of the fashion label Weather Underground to present its biodegradable rain capes. In the context of the exhibition V (Virtus), they obtain independence and at the same time refer to their original function. The installative setting makes Antonia Breme’s artistic process visible as well as her handling of different materials and surfaces. At the same time, the work on display remains flexible and expandable and exists in this form only for the duration of the exhibition. www.antoniabreme.com   HilbertRaum Reuterstraße 31 12047 Berlin 22.10.-31.10.2021 Soft Opening 22.10.2021, 6-10 pm Opening hours: Opening Fridays 6-10 pm Other Fridays 4-7 pm Saturday + Sunday 2-7 pm Curated by: Hannah van Ginkel

An exhibition of solo and collaborative work from members of Global Art Project, an international collaborative collective with 60 members from 17 countries

October 14th – November 5th 2021, Tangent Projects gallery. Opening reception Thursday October 14th, 5 – 8:30pm. The “map of books” that we have read, come from, at most, ten countries in the world. Almost all of these books are concentrated in the US, Canada, and some parts of Europe. These books, and countries, are full of institutions, fraternities of science and knowledge, and Nobel laureates. These spaces are inhabited by white cis-gender men whose names are constantly repeated which, in turn, builds a litany of word power, speech power, and publishing power. These men tend to write a lot, but its difficult to imagine them cooking, cleaning, or caring. These White men who write, think, define and translate, ultimately dictate how the world ‘is’. Lucia Egañas Rojas has a degree in art and has completed a Diploma in Aesthetics and Contemporary Thought, a Master in Creative Documentary and a PHD in Audiovisual Communication. As an artist, she works on collaborative projects, problematising the construction of social imaginary and sources of knowledge. Her projects have been exhibited in many different spaces, museums and institutions. Her creative practices overflow, permeating many different territories such as technology, pedagogy, writing and sexuality. In […]

The Program will be directed by writers Ginger Teppner and Andrew Helton. Fall 2021 | October 11 – November 20 (tbd) 2021 | Virtual Program The Earth Of: Ruptures and Reckonings is a collective virtual space of inquiry. Through writing and discourse we investigate how to manifest and inhabit the fractures that pervade our lives, allowing for the creative space to grow organically through digressions, tangents, musings, and synchronistic linkages. What does it mean when humanity crosses a threshold of such significance it manifests as a rupture, when the world is on the cusp? The brain wants to organize, filter, and separate out. Yet, beyond the confusion perpetrated by language that fails to adequately define, are spaces. We find meaning when we implicitly inhabit these spaces—gestures that guide the cracks to spread toward shattering. These moments of rupture burst forth from gesture into reckoning, exposing us to what is real and true and essential. https://www.artslettersandnumbers.com/the-earth-of-3

David Gersten & Homa Shojaie October 9th – November 20th, 2021 | Virtual Program Arts Letters & Numbers is pleased to announce “SunShip: Thesis II at Arts Letters & Numbers”, a six-week immersive virtual studio program led by David Gersten and Homa Shojaie. The Studio program is being held as part of “SunShip: The Arc That Makes The Flood Possible,” Arts Letters & Numbers’ exhibition in the CITYX Venice Italian Virtual Pavilion of the 17th Venice Architecture Biennale. SunShip: The Arc That Makes the Flood Possible Tens of centuries ago, trees of enormous scale were cut, trimmed, skinned of their bark, and bound together using a particularly robust fibrous rope for the construction of rafts that anticipated the crossing of the great raging seas. Although strong, this rope was not often used near the sea; salt broke down its fiber, sea salt ate away its strength. The trees were bound in such a way that the rolling motion of the sea dug the rope into the soft wood of the trees; the particular knot and binding allowed the push and pull of the sea to work the rope into deep grooves in the wood. In time, as the wood swelled […]

DIGITAL DIVIDE II Die Atomisierung der Welt NICK FUDGE | ANDREAS LAU | ENDA O´DONOGHUE | RÖMER + RÖMER | SANDRA SCHLIPKOETER   08.10-17.10.2021 SOFT OPENING 08.10.2021, 18 – 22 UHR SOFT FINISSAGE 17.10.2021, UM 15 UHR EINGELADEN VON SANDRA SCHLIPKOETER   Die Ausstellung DIGITAL DIVIDE, die Atomisierung der Welt, ist die zweite gemeinsame Ausstellung vonAndreas Lau, Römer + Römer und Nick Fudge. Im Hilbertraum erweitern Sie die gezeigten Künstler mit Arbeiten von Enda o`Donoghue und Sandra Schlipkoeter. Alle Positionen gehen der Frage nach, wie Malerei heutzutage noch zeitgemäß funktionieren kann. Gibt es noch einen Platz für das analoge Medium, für die Malerei? Die Bejahung dieser Frage fällt leicht, wenn man das malerische Werk dieser Künstler betrachtet. Die Fotografie mit deren Folgemedien Film und Fernsehen, bis hin zu Computerbildschirmen und Smartphone-Displays beherrschen heute unsere visuelle Kultur. Das sich die Malerei dennoch als starkes künstlerisches Medium behaupten konnte, liegt nicht zuletzt an genau dieser kreativen Auseinandersetzung und Abarbeitung mit der neuen Technik. Durch Codierung von Motiven, Wiederholung serieller Zeichen, Zerlegung in Pixel oder der Nutzung digitaler Möglichkeiten ergeben sich vollig neue optische Möglichkeiten. Mit der Aneignung dieser optischer Einflüsse und Reize entstehen völlig neue, eigenständige Malereien. Das braucht Zeit uns Disziplin. […]

We are pleased to announce the soft opening of our upcoming exhibition at DAS ESSZIMMER. We present a duo exhibition by Dutch artists Jolijn van den Heuvel and Bas de Weerd. For the last three weeks, both artists have been working in an open studio at KAISERPASSAGE. Their works will now be exhibited in the ESSZIMMER. The soft opening is going to be in presence of the artists and goes from 5 to 9pm.

We are very pleased to announce the start of our exhibition project with the two Dutch artists Jolijn van den Heuvel and Bas de Weerd, which is a continuation of our cooperation with SEA Foundation in Tilburg/NL. Come and talk with the artists in their temporary studio in the Kaiserpassage and enjoy an edible and drinkable pretaste of sprinkle never-in-a-rush essence, in collaboration with Marcia Spinelli (Cologne/DE). To kick off the exhibition project, the two artists, van den Heuvel and de Weerd, will move into a vacant store in the Kaiserpassage in the center of Bonn for 2.5 weeks. This store will mutate into a laboratory, a visible workshop and will be the starting point for their exploration tours into the urban space of Bonn. Here, direct contacts with citizens can arise en passant. – Art production is made tangible and demystified; here it is in direct dialogue with the copy store, the optician or the children’s shoe store, in other words, it is in the midst of life. – This has been a central concern of the exhibition space DAS ESSZIMMER since its founding. During this time, the two artists develop/produce what will later be present in their exhibition […]

 Max Sandred & Örjan Sandred  Sonic Trails is an immersive multimedia polyphony, layering sights, sounds, echoes and rhythms of a city in lockdown. Though seemingly devoid of people, this world is not without pulse. This immersive installation awakens an ambient social imaginary within the persistent sensorium of music and architecture. Lockdown live streams for 101 hours from September 7, 12:00 PM to September 11, 5:00 PM EDT. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/sonic-trails-tickets-168112156987?aff=ebdsoporgprofile What is the pulse of a city when citizens go silent? What are the scenes of a city when society recedes? What qualities and processes remain when everyday activities are abandoned? As the city enters a state of “Lockdown,” the urban environment loses its most distinctive element: human presence. Nonetheless, it would be a mistake to consider the city abandoned. As human activity withdraws, other processes and activities come into focus. Cars pass through empty streets, trees sway in deserted parks, birds roam uninhabited spaces. In Sonic Trails: Lockdown, visitors are immersed in various events of a lockdown city occurring regardless of their presence. Using multiple audio-visual samples of these urban phenomena, the installation creates a new inhabitable place using layered projections and four loudspeakers. Artificial intelligence algorithms determine the composition of this […]

Forats is a videoperformnace piece resulting from a process of research work, carried out for a year by five artists. From a proposal to stage, each artist recreates the piece. The music chosen accompanies each’s vivence, allowing us to go into the individual experiences, which are included in group choreography. The audio consists of five different sounds that are part of a group choreography, and at the same time correspond to each individual experience. Les Performers is an artist group; Victoria Garcia Masdeu, Marga Rotger Llompart, Letitia María Muñoz, Olga Manzanaro Rodrigo, and Marta Font Genovart. This video shows a coast scene, where five silhouettes can be seen in front of the sea: people dressed in black with five white sticks, drawing the line of a path over the sand. Each player makes their own line, path, drawing with the stick or pinning holes, hence the name of the piece. They will accompany the video five headphones with different sounds, which in some way allow a dive into the individual of each of the participants. The piece will be presented to the framework of the Sineu Ciclop Performing Arts Festival and projected in loop for all the time of the […]

Masdeu, Marga Rotger, Leticia María, Olga García, and Marta Font join this performance research group. Forats is the name of this video performance that they will show at Espai sant Marc on Friday 10th (18-20 h) and Saturday 11th (18-21h) of September. In a coastal scene, you can see 5 silhouettes in front of the sea: people dressed in black with 5 white sticks, drawing lines in a path over the sand. Each player makes their own line, path, drawing with the stick or pinning holes, hence the name of the piece. The video will be accompany with 5 headphones with different sounds, which in some way allow a dive into the individual vivinity of each of the performers.

“Pequeñas Extrañezas de Cuentos Sin Contar” (ENG – Little Oddities of Untold Stories) is an installation work that seeks – through the use of materials such as steel, concrete and ceramics – to place the viewer in dialogue with the subjective and metaphorical possibilities of the elements arranged within the exhibition space. The work explores the limits of the room and conditions the visitor’s journey, generating spaces for stillness and thought that complement the very nature of the work. Felipe García Salazar is a visual artist and cultural manager. He graduated from the School of Visual Arts in New York, with a Master in Production and Artistic Research from the University of Barcelona. His work explores, in an autobiographical way, his relationship with time, history and his own identity. Through installation work Felipe seeks to create spaces for thought and dialogue with the viewer, and invites us to reflect on the contemporary status quo and what we understand as reality.

On the historical reality and artistic representation of Lynchings Ken Gonzales-Day & Lawrence Weschler “Most of all, beware, even in thought, of assuming the sterile attitude of the spectator, for life is not a spectacle, a sea of grief is not a proscenium, and a man who wails is not a dancing bear.” –Aime Cesare Over the past several decades, Los Angeles based photographer Ken Gonzales-Day has been engaged in one of the most trenchant and consequential explorations both of the historical reality of lynching and of the aesthetic and ethical complications involved in blithe latter day cultural appropriations of incidents which from the very start had been cast as prurient spectacles.  Several years of archival research culminated, in 2006, with his publication of Lynching in the West (1850-1935), which revealed the shocking and long-occluded extent of extralegal executions not only of blacks but of Latinos and others as well, particularly in California.  This research in turn informed several subsequent projects, including one in which he compiled often hand-tinted vintage postcards celebrating local lynchings and then proceeded to honor the victims by airbrushing them out of the image entirely, inviting viewers to focus instead on the obscenely gawking spectators, and […]

An Architectonic Technological Sublimity  Michael Benson and James Green In the last few decades, US Space Agency NASA has constructed an astonishingly vast, kinetic, architectonic structure, one spanning the entire Solar System. This ever-evolving edifice comprises recognizably architectural forms: the buildings of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California; NASA HQ in Washington and various mission control centers; a global network of giant dish antennae; and rocket assembly, testing and launching facilities. But these would be meaningless without another principal component: the intricate spacecraft it has sent vaulting to all the major worlds of our planetary system, and the football-field sized International Space Station. Some of these extraordinarily advanced interplanetary robots are no bigger than a grand piano, and the largest is a bit smaller than a city bus. A cat’s-cradle webwork of signals connects them to Earth, its chains of zeroes and ones slinging across the void and returning images and data. Together this system—conceptual structure and carefully designed complex of inquisitive, communicative, propulsive, semi-autonomous technologies, with brick-and-mortar terrestrial elements and titanium-and-radionuclide spacefaring ones, with organic human parts and emerging AI control systems, all dedicated to expanding the frontier between what we know and what we don’t—constitutes perhaps the single […]

Exist, Resist, Repeat Ahmet Talha Gürol El3o Gil Moualem Doron Marouane Joubba Tilawin Project Yazan Aboushi Venetia Menzies Exhibtion duration 09.09.-19.9.2021 Soft Opening Thursday 09.09.2021, 18 – 22 Uhr curated by Toufik Douib This exhibition was imagined as a visual diary that pays tribute to some of the artists, initiatives or collaborations I have worked or connected with since the ‘Covid Era’. While each of the selected photo/ digital work highlights crucial moments that inspired or affected me, both on a personal level and as a curator, this collective show reflects on the act of creative resistance that many art practitioners addressed to tackle the current global issue. Ultimately ‘Exist, Resist, Repeat’ aspires to bring a nuanced vision to the quest for art in resistance, celebrated through this first in-person exhibition made possible in 2 years!

We say goodbye to our solo exhibition “to the other side” by Jonas Hohnke (Wuppertal/GER). Take your chance to experience it (again). In his solo show “to the other side”, Jonas Hohnke poetically connects the exhibition venue in Bonn with a location in Castlemaine/Victoria/AUS. Both places are marked by a cloud flag. The connection is created virtually, on the surface of a monitor, where both flags can be seen, as well as in our imagination. Discover even more exciting connections on our last exhibition day. Jonas Hohnke (Wuppertal/GER) concentrates in his work of the everyday and the supposedly inconspicuous. He also likes to be seduced by architectural conditions, their banality and even their invisibility. In the resulting works, both the work and its surroundings sometimes merge together, letting the unrecognisability and visibility only gradually appear in the course of perception. Thanks to the artist Michael Graeve, who made the flag installation on an artist studio in Castelmaine/Victoria/AUS possible.

The SPAO Centre Gallery is thrilled to present Intimate Textures of the Digital World featuring the work of Gatineau-based artist AM Dumouchel, Montreal-based artist Gilles Tarabiscuité and Vancouver-based Haida artist Jaad Kuujus (Meghann O’brien). The artists in this exhibition negotiate between digital and physical spaces, continually asking viewers to orient themselves between physicality and abstraction. The artworks capture a tactile and sensory subject matter, despite the mediation of the lens in two-dimensions. Viewers are encouraged to explore intimate conversations of metamorphosis, belonging and manual labour while also discovering their place between virtuality and reality. 

On the occasion of our current exhibition “to the other side” by Jonas Hohnke (Wuppertal/GER), presented by DAS ESSZIMMER, we’re holding an Artist Talk on 02 September 2021, 7pm, in our art gallery at Mechenstraße 25/BONN. Artist Jonas Hohnke will give us exciting exclusive insights into his artistic work in conversation with artist friend Till-Martin Koester (Wuppertal/GER), who both know each other from their time together at the art academy in Münster (GER). Jonas Hohnke (Wuppertal/GER) concentrates in his work of the everyday and the supposedly inconspicuous. He also likes to be seduced by architectural conditions, their banality and even their invisibility.

Bob Garfield & Lawrence Weschler Someday, decades and decades hence, following some sort of terrible ecological collapse, all mankind has been reduced to living underground, in hexagonal rooms “like the cells of a bee” with no apertures and throbbing ventilation, each cell containing a single individual, though everyone is connected to everyone else by way of a vast hive of intermeshed video screens.  Zoom, as it were, avant la lettre.   For this is how the great E. M. Forster’s visionary 1909 story “The Machine Stops” begins, with a son calling out to videoconference with his mother on the other side of the globe, to chat and to complain, “The Machine is much, but it is not everything. I see something like you in this plate, but I do not see you. I hear something like you through this telephone, but I do not hear you.” https://www.eventbrite.com/e/weschler-bob-garfield-consider-e-m-forsters-story-the-machine-stops-tickets-167490086357

Live conversation between Lawrence Weschler and Rhoda Rosen Rhoda Rosen with members of Chicago’s Red Line Service community discuss Grappling with and engaging the cultural implications of homelessness In the brutal winter of 2013, curator Rhoda Rosen and artist Billy McGuiness, living at opposite ends of the 26-mile-long north-south Red Line of Chicago’s metro service, launched a practice of preparing home cooked meals every Saturday night and going out to the blustery platforms at one end of the line or the other to share them (with proper tablecloths, plates and silverware) with some of the people experiencing homelessness who had taken to living out their nights on the metro trains and were being forced to disembark between rides. From that initial action grew a widening community and the insight that on top of being houseless, people experiencing homelessness were living out a sort of exile from the city’s vital cultural life. The community themselves set out to remedy that situation, systematically challenging Chicago’s cultural institutions to make room and provision for them. In addition, several of the community members turned out to be artists, poets and other sorts of cultural workers, or else began seeing such possibilities in themselves, and […]

This two-part experimental workshop will examine the poetics of Line and Stitch and the ways in which drawing may be used in our everyday practices. We will explore the relationship between drawing and the architecture of the everyday: from the ways a line may be employed as a divider that separates the self from (an)other; to drawing as a form of embodied meaning-making and storytelling across time and space. Reflecting on the inner geography of the pandemic, unpacking placeness and memory through observation of texture and surface, tracing, mark making, frottage, collage, decollage, we will look at the ways the line can become a form of stitching or mending and other kinds of meaning making. We will also examine ways of recording and translating our body, our pulse, breath, blood pressure, gestures and movements in our surroundings as a kind of translation project. Participants are encouraged to bring to the workshop a few images or objects from one’s past and present everyday surrounding. http://www.artslettersandnumbers.com/sunship-thesis-3 

Concert of the group “Ambrozia” in the garden of the Kyiv Institute of Automation as part of the “day of open studios”. Ambrozia is an indie-electronic band created by Igor Kanivets and Margarita Sherstyuk in 2018, transformed into a multimedia art project. Their style is called “romantic electronics”. The food of the gods – “ragweed” – in Greek mythology gave the Olympic gods eternal youth and immortality. The weed genus, which is widespread in a large area of ​​Ukraine, has the same name. All this is symbolic of our “wild” music, which appeared suddenly, in conditions not adapted to this kind of activity, but like the “food of the gods”, gave us a new breath – new creative energy and inspiration” – Igor Kanivets and Margarita Sherstyuk.

Armin Rohr is a painter and draughtsman. For his work he uses different, traditional media such as paper or canvas. In cycles, he repeatedly changes his pictorial language by switching from abstraction to figurative or combining both forms. His best-known works are characterised above all by a combination of extensive wall installations consisting of murals, paintings and drawings, autonomous oil paintings and monotypes. In the PASSAGE art project in the Kaiserpassage in Bonn, we are showing three of his large abstract works on canvas that are similar to his murals. In the individual works, round, organic forms alternate with graphic structures. The interplay of amorphous, abstract bodies, surfaces, dots and lines creates the illusion of spatiality. They form their own effective space of figures and structures. In the mostly colour-intensive arrangements, Armin Rohr combines organically proliferating forms, remnants and ciphers of figurativeness and abstract colour surfaces in his abstract phase to create an associative but alien cosmos.

EYES ONLY is pleased to present: Joseph Constable, Associate Curator at the Serpentine Galleries in London and Mark Corfield-Moore, born 1988 in Bangkok, lives and works in London. In Mark´s painting practice, the act of weaving on a loom becomes a meditation on the idiosyncrasies of past events and experiences. Memories, be they historical or personal, are re-performed through a hybrid process incorporating painting and ikat, in which the artist paints images with dye directly onto strands of loose cotton threads before they are woven permanent. This ikat technique was vicariously adopted by Corfield-Moore from his maternal grandmother, who had a similar practice many years ago in North East Thailand. Although the artist never met his relative, this biographical discovery enabled him to process and rediscover his heritage by incorporating weaving into his practice. The works presented in the exhibition draw upon a series of intimate thought patterns that trace Corfield-Moore’s experience as part of the Thai-British diaspora. Phrases such ‘auto gate’ suggest certain architectural structures and psychological spaces, which are then combined with each woven image to engender ambiguous and transitory associations: an automatic gate that acts as a protective threshold. Rendered with what the artist describes as a […]

BAMBI WOODS PRESENTS is an on-going collective enunciation initiated in Autumn 2019 which exhibition will be hosted in two mirroring spaces: ERGO Collective and Space 52, Athens. This collective practice deals with the historical trope of the individualisation of an author and architectonic forms of authorship engaging in creating modes of practice that reverse this traditional status. To develop into anonymity of a murmur, BAMBI WOODS PRESENTS attempts to re-codes and reverses these architectonic forms of authorship, where power play, proliferation of meaning and the ideological figure of a ‘present author’ shapeshift into nameless entities. This suggested new state of equilibrium, no longer refers to a singular subject but is rather designated to the subject’s cumulative space of vocation. B.W as a host, is a hybridised figure, scripted under the form of an inhabited dwelling where authorship is delegated into chains of commands and mechanical processes. Setting forward the blueprint of a show, B.W as a narrator – now evacuated by the author – is hosted throughout a constellation of ready-mades, performance, a radio station, an internet portal and photographic slides. It is no longer a manipulation of the real but a simulated situation, a potential/hypothetical scenario. Dealing with the phantom of […]

Hot Summer City: Street Photography Exhibition will be held in the cultural heart of Pittsburgh, PA: Lawrenceville. Home to celebrated artists, most notably Andy Warhol, the former steel making capital is now referred to as “The Paris of Appalachia” due to its deep connections to the arts and world-class museums. Vestige Concept Gallery is seeking street photography that captures the essence of urban life in the summertime. Summer is an intense and multifaceted season that brings joy, freedom, and social opportunities. When we think of representing the season through photography we envision intense warmth, deep shadows, and/or depictions of late nights, summer fun, and being outdoors. We are also interested in work that captures the dark side of summer: oppressive heat; urban blight; and the struggle to keep cool, hustle, and survive. The show will be Special Guest Curated by Rafael Fuchs. About the Curator: Rafael Fuchs is a Brooklyn-based artist, photographer, director, curator and producer. He has earned his place as one of the most important photographers of his generation. A recipient of many awards, Rafael has captured portraits and images of some of the most influential figures of the past 30 years. His images have fronted magazine covers, and have become part of distinctive private collections and […]

The Medialab Prado cultural center joins MMMAD Festival with a new edition of ‘Programa la Plaza’, an open call that invites the entire digital art community to submit their proposals to exhibit visual ‘sketches’, programmed for the digital façade of Medialab Prado. With the collaboration of Creative Coding Madrid. Theme: Glitches and Alterations The glitch and error are part of digital creation. From programming errors to visual artifacts generated during image transmission, thee glitch constitutes a digital aesthetic that tries to generate tension on the clean image. The Medialab screen has physical glitches. Like any architectural element, it is affected by the passage of time. Many of its LED bulbs have died, and thus remain off or showing fixed or random colors. This call seeks pieces of digital art that work from glitch as aesthetics and concept. Taking advantage of the fact that the support itself generates a first approach towards error in the image, we invite artists to program the square with pieces that radicalize and dialogue with these new digital natures. How does it work? – Design and program your project on the programalaplaza platform (http://programalaplaza.medialab-prado.es/) – When ready, send it before May 23, 2021 – The creations […]

Curated by Tsering Frykman-Glen April 24th – June 4th 2021, Tangent Projects gallery. Opening Saturday 24th April, 12 – 2:30pm & 4:30 – 7:30pm. Everything we make to survive, including our bodies, comes under the label “low tech”. Bastard mortar is a traditional recipe that consists of mixing and reducing mortar with clay to improve its plasticity. In the world of ceramics, as in all things, there are purist beliefs regarding degrees of whiteness and a globalisation of accepted forms of construction. Within the context of “Construcción Bastarda”, we are following Mercè on a journey, an exploration of technological sovereignty. https://bit.ly/TP21CBMJM

Like in a perfect circle, I do return to the place where my first exhibition took place, Sineu. One of the many perceptible differences between those two biographical moments lies in the fact that I actually understand the role of the spectator as a participant in the work’s process. In a sort of symbiotic relationship, visitors will enjoy with the different works exhibited in Espai Sant Marc while they reinforce them with their experience. An appropiate way to understand my work is noticing the importance of code in it. I talk about code not only as technological scripting but as a meaning that is not going to be understood without taking in account the required elements. I believe spectators have a work to do putting together the different pieces that an artwork places in front of them. If not, they would only achieve an incomplete, although valid, experience, because that’s what we find day after day: multitude of codes that we use to replicate without understanding them, as the one singing the Quran phonetically. Even that, with the increase of technical complexity in my latests years’ projects, my opacity towards the spectators has lowered, as the enjoyment of them would return the efforts invested. Anyway, there are […]

DUPLEX | Artists in Residence is an artist-run space, housing several studios, a residency program and a gallery, located in the center of Lisbon, in Graça neighborhood. Seeking to stimulate creative processes, experimentation and plastic production as well as the discourse that these dynamics originate, Duplex presents itself as a privileged territory for the coexistence of different artists, different ways of creating and different ways of thinking about the work of art and its context. Valuing advances and setbacks, valuing error, failure, and disruption as participants in contemporary praxis, the entire structure and functioning of the Duplex seeks, in addition to celebrating the final results, to bring the public closer to the conceptual and procedural richness of artistic creation. For resident artists and curators, Duplex residency program allows a quick insertion in the artistic community of Lisbon, offering the possibility, time and space to develop and show their work. With conversations, visits, discussions and monitoring of projects developed in residence, Duplex seeks to adapt to the interests and needs of each group of residents, working through open calls, but also accepting self-proposals. The residencies for curators are usually coordinated with the artistic residencies. ​ Location: Lisbon city center – between Bairro […]

“Walking backwards” Two funded exhibition opportunities at SNEHTA – June & October 2021 The calls aim is to bring artists attention to past ideas and juxtapose those with our present condition. “Walking Backwards” was inspired by the Greek figure of the soothsayer Tiresias, appearing in Dante’s Divine Comedy. Soothsayers are fortune tellers, or people who claim to be able to predict the future. In Canto XX, Dante and Vergil encounter these souls, forced to walk with their heads for ever facing backwards.

15 March – 18 April The term “liminal” comes from the Latin word līmen, meaning “a threshold” and it stands for something relating to a transitional stage of a process. Because of the current world situation, we are experiencing liminality as a collective, but also as individuals facing our private challenges and transformations. This constant need for adaptation creates opportunities for growth that could have never been imagined before. Once the threshold is crossed, there is no way back. Marija Brasnic is using the gallery window as a liminal space to show her mixed media installation, made of a mirror and plexiglass panels. The whole surface, including the window, is covered with an abstract drawing that is ever-changing, depending on the viewer’s perspective. The viewer is invited to constantly reexamine and adapt to what they see, including their reflection in the mirror.

with Andrew Helton Spring 2021 | Virtual Program | 3/15/2021 – 4/24/2021 http://www.artslettersandnumbers.com/the-earth-of-part-two-a-moment-is-a-reckoning Why reelaborate today a concept of the archive? In a single configuration, equally technical and political, ethical and juridical?…No one ever renounces—and this is the unconscious itself—the appropriation of power over the document, over its detention, retention or its interpretation. -Jacques Derrida Reports that say something hasn’t happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don’t know we don’t know. -Donald Rumsfeld (on alleged weapons of mass destruction in Iraq) A moment is a rupture. It is a point at which the machinery (whether it’s time, domestic life, politics, civil obedience, work, health, etc.) we are all a part of breaks. Something becomes an object at the moment of rupture, when it is no longer (however briefly) a part of the machine. This is why moments become so important to us. It is a kind of freedom. A moment is a chance to feel as […]

BEST PRACTICE is pleased to announce a new show of works by Tecate-based artist Chantal Peñalosa. The exhibition will bring together current and past works in photography, painting, and video that broadly address the sociopolitical tensions that pervade the U.S./Mexico border through investigations of the mutual clime, shared firmament, and bifurcated landscape of this charged region. The camera is aimed at the sky to create photo diptychs that record the subtle shifts in cloud formations that happen in the time it takes to cross the U.S/Mexico border. A video records a performance work made on Avenida México, a street in Tecate, Baja California, that runs along the border between Mexico and the United States in which the artist assumed eye-level height with a USA border patrol truck parked on a small hill to survey the border by sitting atop the roof of a house. She first sits with her back to the truck and describes the scenery to it; she then turns to face the truck creating a one-sided dialogue with her action. Another video work reconciles a childhood memory of a colloquialism that explains, through myth, the phenomenon of condensation trails formed by the engines of aircraft “crossing the […]

Condemned to canvas, pencils, wood and words Lilo C. Karsten Rahulla Torabi Paul Hirsch Daniel Scheffel Four artists work with juvenile delinquents In September and October 2020, four artists from the Frankfurt artists’ association EULENGASSE worked with young offenders, a project developed in cooperation with the Jugend-Kultur-Werkstatt Falkenheim Gallus e.V. (JKWF). The art projects were carried out one after the other in their sculpture workshop in Frankfurt’s Gutleutviertel. Each artist worked with young people for up to six afternoons and was therefore available for the young people in addition to the artistic media of the sculpture workshop. The artistic works that the young people produced in the four sub-projects are presented and offered for sale in this exhibition in the EULENGASSE exhibition space in Frankfurt/Germany. A publication and a podcast series will accompany the exhibition. The project is part of »Participate NOW!«, the 2020 annual theme of the art association and exhibition space EULENGASSE.

March 8, 2021 (Intl Womens Day) 2pm PST Archival Content Report Instagram videochat shares archival content from past exhibiting artists of the PKULTRA franchise.  Examples of archival types include this Visual Art Source article: Rumi Koshino, “Some Songs Have No Words,” 2011, archival inkjet print on paper, installation view, dimensions variable Continuing through December 31, 2011 Rumi Koshino’s site-specific installation, Some Songs Have No Words, muses on the most salient features of Form/Space Atelier. Koshino’s paper pyramids echo the watery patterns of the gallery’s linoleum floor and its well-aged wooden steps. Form/Space Atelier is an odd venue: it’s dominated by a central staircase that quickly descends to a small, dead-end landing. Koshino’s series of small paper sculptures are constructed from digital photographs of the 1960s-era flooring and the shabby stairs. Turquoise pyramids sit on the floor, echoing and blending into the pattern of the linoleum. Rows of pyramids trail up the stairs, and as they do their pattern and coloring changes to match the color and texture of the stairs themselves. This quiet, well conceived installation uses transparent technique and execution to highlight the unusual architecture of the gallery. Step carefully, however, as the pyramids are not fixed to the […]

After a very successful first season, we are pleased to announce the second round of the Pilot Light Residency at Arts Letters & Numbers that will run until the end of May. The Pilot Light Residency was initially conceived as an antidote to the many restrictions that prevented us from running our usual programs as well as from the recognition that after many months in isolation, artists were in need of a change in context to connect to their creative endeavors. Today, we continue our efforts to provide creators with a space to work in while abstaining from scheduled programs, community events, communal dinners etc. Given our expansive quarantine procedure upon arrival, as well as, protocols for social distancing during the stay we are extending the residency program so as to accommodate as many artists as possible in the safest way possible. Participating artists in this program will be offered private accommodation and studio space for a reduced price of $250 a week. During this time each person will be fully independent, yet co-exist in shared spaces. PRIORITY At the moment, this program will only be offered to artists currently located within the US, who can arrive to ALN without […]

THIRD SHIFT is an annual festival of public contemporary artworks that takes place in Saint John, New Brunswick and online. THIRD SHIFT 2021 will take place from August 19 – 22, 2021. Theme: TRAVERSE When we are having these calls it is important that all applicants think about their relationship to the land; THIRD SHIFT offers an opportunity to re-imagine and engage with the natural and built environment in what we now know as Saint John. The land on which THIRD SHIFT takes place is the unceded and unsurrendered territory of the Wolastoqiyik and Mi’kmaq Peoples. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Wolastoqiyik and Mi’kmaq Peoples first signed with the British crown in 1725. The treaties did not deal with the surrender of lands and resources but, in fact, recognized Indigenous sovereign title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing, equitable, reciprocal, and respectful relationship between nations—a relationship that Third Space strives to uphold. We have an ongoing commitment to center Indigenous leadership and artistic expertise and we aim to foster meaningful relationships with Indigenous-led community groups through our festival. To learn more about Indigenous territories, treaties, and languages, the […]

PHOTO IS:RAEL invites artists to take part in a unique 24 hour online Photomarathon. The works of 20 winners will be featured in a travelling exhibition during 2021. Additional prizes will be awarded to the top 3 artists. For over 40 years, photomarathons have seen great success in cities all over the world, although they are usually limited to a single municipal area. The limitations of the current times have inspired us to develop an online, international photomarathon which is open to participants from all around the globe.

We invite photographers, designers, artists and creators from all fields which use the language of photography as their tool, to engage in a creative and inspiring 24-hour exploration of various aspects of the “Chaos” theme.  CHAOS  “Chaos” represents opportunity, a way of contending with the uncertainty and ambiguity of a time and a world that is constantly changing.

What is the relationship of a body with the moving image? How does culture inscribe meaning into bodies? Does our body connect us to the world or separates us from it? Have we overcome the body taboos? When is our body an instrument of knowledge, […]

DISTANCE – Lacuna Festivals 2021 Deadline for applications: 31 March 2021 For this year’s Lacuna Festivals the theme is ‘Distance’, a suggestion from our creative community and one that feels globally appropriate for the current context of the year – DISTANCE The International Contemporary Art Festivals for Fuerteventura and Lanzarote will again (as in 2020) take place as LACUNA FESTIVALS, but over distance (due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic), using a range of online platforms including YouTube, ArtSteps, Flickr, Facebook and Instagram.

In 2020, reality shook. Opposing forces of slowing and momentum work simultaneously and warp the senses of time and space. As a result of our inability to perceive the present and plan the future, we are expected to adapt, to develop coping mechanisms, to break habits and paradigms – to a constant movement in a continuous present. For the 2021 exhibition season, we invite creators to submit proposals dealing with the idea of “Present Continuous” as an artistic interpretation or as an actual action resonating to the future. We want to present artistic trials centering on uncertainty as a guiding principle: Ideas that facilitate a system of internal rules and logic and that may influence the exhibition’s duration and meaning; proposals dealing with uncertainty in the exhibition’s space and duration context, encouraging live simultaneous occurrences both in the exhibition and in the virtual space. Recommended reading Proposals should be sent as 1 PDF file to [email protected] before February 20th, 2021. For more details and gallery space layout   The proposal should include: Project description and demonstration mean. Preferrable display period: (April-June / July-September / October-December) How the element of time will be manifested in the exhibition. How the gallery space […]

The ‘Post Box’  long term exhibition project creates international visibility and interaction between artists during the traveling restrictions of the Covid-19 pandemic. Artworks sent to the postbox of the Hypercube Space will be exhibited in a 105cm (W) x 170cm (H) x 33cm (D) public display window located next to the postbox itself. By hacking this advertisement display window, this idea engages with the art audience in the heart of central Lisbon, now home to a growing international community who have chosen the city as their home. This is in keeping with Hypercube’s manifesto to expand the notion of the artspace. Every month another international artist’s work will be selected and presented for a 4 week period as part of a rolling open call for submissions.   The Theme – “Connections”: The main theme of the Post box exhibition series is “connections”.

Submitted work is required to be in an appropriate format for the display window such as fine-art print, photograph, painting, mixed media, intervention, and installation. Please ensure the work can be easily posted (e.g. foldable, rolled, boxed, etc.) Expensive shipment […]

It is a project of pieces that aim to evoke the moment of despair that any person suffers when faced with a horrible situation. Reducing the drawing to the minimum expression, we approach a logo or an emoticon, the emoticon is a form of global communication designed to be understood by everyone, because this anguish is a universal feeling and thus the message is shared. It is not about sharing suffering or empathizing, but the theme of the exhibition is to translate a universal human feeling into an artistic work. These pieces work like a commercial sticker, they transmit all the information with the minimum resources. Please see Facebook event for more details.

Sjimmie Veenhuis (1984) creates transformative installations in which he uses everyday materials in their original form. At …ism project space, Veenhuis created a spatial installation in which he tests his work against the current reality. The installation ‘SPATIUM’ is directive, monumental, safe, formal and it makes optimal use of the given space and in-between space of …ism. Without denying his own language, material and art practice, Veenhuis investigates what exhibition-wise is still possible in a one-and-a-half-meter society.

Eye’s Walk Digital Festival is happy to announce an Open-Call for our upcoming project: Project Lazaretta: Digital Stories from the Old and New World.

We visit places that have been quarantine stations for travelers, prisons, places of execution or asylums and aim to explore the search for a better life and hope, which can flourish in the most adverse conditions.

An interdisciplinary artist residency in suburban upstate of İstanbul.

AADK Spain invites all artists and researchers who wish to work on the topics of body, territory and spatiality to participate in its Artist Residency Program. For this call, priority (not exclusive) will be given to intervention proposals developed in the landscape, conceived from any creative discipline (sound, performance, visual arts, architecture, agriculture or any other approach that is linked to the theme). Such interventions may be carried out in the natural or semi-urban area of Blanca. For those interested in working with the community of Blanca, please bear in mind that projects of less than two months will not be accepted. The ability of artists to establish respectful relationships with the inhabitants and to be willing to engage in trial-error processes will be fundamental for these proposals. Theoretical research projects of any scientific or humanistic discipline may be applied to this call, provided that they have the artistic practice as their object of study. The Artist Residency Program is carried out in Centro Negra, the current headquarters of AADK Spain located in the town of Blanca, Murcia. This program is a space for reflection and artistic research that encourages linking research with the historical, cultural and geographical context of […]

Scarecrow is a solo exhibition by Korhan Erel, originally to be viewed at TOP Transdisciplinary Project Space in Berlin, but now lives online due to the recent Covid lockdown in Germany. A scarecrow is a humanoid object that is placed in open fields to scare off birds or other animals to protect seeds and crops. It is a mute object, which stands alone in the middle of a field, to protect the land and crops. The project appropriates and reverses the mute scarecrow object into a sound sculpture, which speculates their presence in the borders of countries or private lands to question two main themes: neglecting of nature and non-human beings as well as centralizing human presence over nature; and migration politics and their unwelcoming strategies. Erel’s sound installation explores ‘the fear from the other’, both human and non-human, using sound emanating from an amorphic, absurd sound-sculpture built using ready-made objects that one can easily procure. This speculative approach is a critique of both conventional methods of scaring animals, positioning humankind over nature and hate speech toward migrants and the other. The three-channel sound composition is based on field recordings, designed sounds and an unknown language consisting of made-up words […]

Exhibition dates: 15.1.2021 – 12.3.2021 https://gg3.eu/en/1-5-degrees/ The 1.5-degree target is understood to mean the goal of limiting the man-made global temperature increase due to the greenhouse effect to 1.5 degrees Celsius by 2100 from the level before the start of industrialization. Almost all the states of the world have signed a treaty with the Paris Convention, according to which they intend to make efforts to achieve the 1.5 degree target. Climate researchers doubt that we will reach this goal, we would already be at 2 degrees. There is a lack of political will. Fridays for Future are fighting to keep the contract. What has to change to reach the goal? Researchers have developed scenarios that show ways. For example, the price of CO2 increases to 100€/ton. Renewable energies like wind power, solar energy are used instead of fossil fuels. We humans live well and in a climate-friendly way. Which pictures do artists create on this topic? We are looking forward to your exciting submissions! Open-call In a public call for entries, we invite artists to submit contributions for the above described theme for a group exhibition in our exhibition spaces. Disciplines: object, sculpture, installation, photo, painting, drawing, printmaking, video with […]

ADAPTATION, RETELLING: Walter Benjamin claimed that “story telling is always the art of repeating stories”. Stories repeated around the fire, passed on and amended through generations. Stories made into other stories, plays, poems, films. Adaptation as repetition or retelling; as translation or interpretation; as remaking for changed circumstances; as context shifting. Linda Hutcheon writes against negative conceptions of adaptation in A Theory of Adaptation. For her, adaptation is “repetition, but repetition without replication”, and “always involves both (re)interpretation and then (re)creation”. We invite submissions that consider ideas of adaptation for our Issue 8, Please submit via our email address [email protected] with ‘Submission, [your name, work title]’ as the subject heading, and use WeTransfer for large files. If you have a question, include ‘QUERY’ in the subject heading. Include a brief description of the submission (no more than 100 words). Limits: 1000 words for text 40 lines for poetry 5 images (unless part of an image series with minimal text) Audio-visual submissions (including music and film) are recommended up to 4 minutes, but may be accepted up to 10 minutes.

(ESP, English below) Comisariada por Margot Cuevas & Gabriel Virgilio Luciani 16 de octubre – 11 de noviembre, Tangent Projects gallery. La segunda ley hermética de la alquimia, as above so below (tanto arriba como abajo) busca evidenciar un intercambio dialéctico, coral y polifónico entre varios estados potenciales que puede tener toda entidad. Hay semejanzas, ecos y reflejos matéricos, esotéricos y mesotéricos que resuenan justamente como las metáforas resuenan con su sujeto de interés. Entre el estrato de existencia y percepción de arriba y el de abajo residen miles de mutantes y ciborgs; productos de ficción y fusión. Este entremedio se constituye por un simulacro que parece pero no es, que desobedece un anclaje fijo en la veracidad. Either but neither (ambos pero a la vez ninguno). Este fenómeno aparentemente paradójico es lo que genera un mareo muy peculiar: un horror existencial hacia lo ambiguo, indeterminable, invertido, lo que recuerda a pero no lo es. Nos encontramos así ante lo que se llama Postmodern Vertigo, un pánico, una dislocación sensorial y de la propia estructura que sustenta nuestra realidad. No es un rechazo a la realidad o a su existencia, ni tampoco una negación de nuestra existencia como sujetos. Es […]

Werner van der Zwan, Ruben Golstein and Eva Sigurðardóttir are educated at three different academies but all work site-specific. The artists met at ..ism and will work together for a few weeks within the space to complete the exhibition. In this way they are in dialogue with each other as well as with the specific spatial possibilities of …ism. The artists are lost in a one way space…

>> Opening: Friday 18.09.2020, 6 – 9pm and Saturday 19.09.2020, 1 – 5pm presentation by Matthias Aeberli Friday, 7 pm / Saturday, 4 pm We are delighted to present the solo exhibition If Paintings were live Pets, would you buy them more readily? Oder Bilderlügen haben lange Beine by Swiss artist Matthias Aeberli (Basel) at das Esszimmer. His method of sampling – content- and formal-wise – can be viewed as a visual experimental arrangement that revolves around the one question: „How does an image become an image?“. This image survey or image research runs throughout Matthias Aeberli’s entire oeuvre. The current exhibition at Das ESSZIMMER tries to fathom whether a lie is an inherent component of every painting, or if there can exist paintings that do not lie. Thereupon the provocative and confusing exhibition title is referred to. Aeberli’s sampling method and image research is incorporated into the exhibition concept in diverse ways. Thus, during the opening days, the artist will browse through a section of his numerous sketchbooks as part of a presentation – simultaneously projected and recorded, so that the sketchbooks will also be present during the exhibition. The front, street-side exhibition room becomes a Schaulager, where every […]

https://hyperdome.xyz/opencall/ HYPER FORM International 3D Modeling Competition | Deadline 5th of November 2020 1st Prize: 500€  | 2nd Prize: 250€  | 3rd Prize: 150€ LAPSUS Art Space and Laboratory is launching an International Abstract 3D-printable Sculpture Competition for artists under 35 in order to stimulate creativity in a digitized reality. The theme is Hyper Form, alluding to nonphysical and dynamic space, based on the simultaneity of plans and events in hyperreality – a dimension where the real and the fictional blend, or, as described by Jean Baudrillard “the generation by models of a real without origin or reality”. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic the digitized world becomes the world of communication, while sculpture, one of the most earthly of the arts, has the challenge to become fluid by digitization. Our open call wants to give a chance to young artists, 3D modelers, art and design students around the world to express their visions of hyperreality, seeing it both as a means and as a space to work within. The sculpture should function both as something generated and imagined in hyperspace, between the digital and the real – an object which becomes real only by way of its contradictions. Send your sculptures as […]

This exhibition presents a reflection on the transposition of choreography in contemporary art works and methods through photography, sculpture, video, and performance. The dancing body occupies a central place in this show, where the potential of movement is explored in visual art.

The influential Viennese media artist Peter Kogler shows the installation EYES ONLY, for which he also uses a 3D LED fan for the first time. The artist, who participated in the documenta IX in Kassel in 1992, is internationally renowned for his computer animations, video projections, and illusionistic as well as real spatial labyrinths that animate and redefine architecture. Using computer-set, digitally printed paper webs and a projection generated by a 3D LED fan, Peter Kogler transforms the whole gallery space into a showcase of so much attraction. Curved lines along the walls, ceiling and floor strive towards a hologram-like, free-floating eye, which, like the human one, is constantly in slight motion. The overall picture appears like a modern icon, which triggers a wide range of associations in the viewer, ranging from the illusion of the private sphere, through the public Big Brother level to the meta-level of the divine eye.

This was a sculpture project that has been transformed into scenic action. It has as its origin the history of the spoking sculptures of Rome. Pasquino is the nickname the Romans gave to a very dilapidated sculpture from the 3rd century BC found in Rome. The inhabitants of 1501 began to use this sculpture to hang on them writings against the power that daredto say what they were silent as dangerous, from which the word “pasquín” becomes. J.Cera shows us a video of the project: “Conversations with Pasquino”, a scenic piece that will be represented by holograms where Pasquino’s character recovers his own voice to tell the artist that he is about to announce the end of the story and that she must sing the lullaby of awakening. Joana Cera is a multidisciplinary artist which hybridizes its means of production and hers methodologies with a high formal and conceptual intensity; sculpture, video, drawing and installations, are the available media for hers creativity wich is lately developed in long research periods unrelated to the combustion of the artistic scene. She has worked with art galleries as; Ana Mas projects (Barcelona-Puerto Rico), La caja blanca (Palma de Mallorca), La casa amarilla (Saragossa) […]

GAP, the international collaborative collective drawn from the culturally diverse 60 member group in 17 countries, come together in one gallery space to illustrate their individual artistic vision of what it means to Cross Borders.

This exhibition includes elements from the first installment of CrossingBorders, which took place in Ghent, Belgium in 2019 (pre-pandemic) at Campo-Santo. This is the first time this expansive show comes to the United States. Curator Heyward has added new works by new artist members to GAP.

We look forward to sharing a unique 3D Virtual Tour experience of the exhibition as well as welcoming you physically into the gallery. What Borders are YOU Willing to Cross? CrossingBorders an exhibition of works by members of Global Art Project, an international collaborative collective with over 50 members from 15 different countries. Exhibition concept: The Borders are wide, various, concrete and philosophical, offering an illusion of safety and definitive organization of reality ignoring the shifts in need and agendas at play at any given time on the international stage and the internal stage. Borders as a theme not defined, but implied. The obvious way to look at Borders is as it relates to geographic demarcation and socio-political implications, the artists in this exhibition take it one step further; Borders that confound and limit us personally; Borders to be psychologically challenged, broken through and/or accepted.

Curated by Carl Heyward at Gallerie Renee Marie, Benicia, California. On view through October 31, 2020. Despite our continuing troubles with COVID-19, artists are still working to interpret the world and their responses to it. And even through the many barriers that now, unfortunately, must exist, artists are still finding ways for the public to see their work. Once again, curator Carl Heyward has brought another excellent show to Gallerie Renee Marie. By appointment, the public is invited to visit this wonderful exhibition. The show features the photography of Oakland based multidisciplinary artist and poet Brian Auerbach. The main room of the gallery showcases Auerbach’s interpretive photographs debuting in the show. The intimate gallery is arranged in the ground floor space of one of Benicia’s historic homes, and Heyward has placed works of several Benicia based artists that compliment Auerbach’s ‘Obliterant’ theme in rooms adjacent to the main space. Auerbach captures heart grabbing images of graffiti, rust, painted marks, and advertising copy. Through digital manipulation, he alters and blends these fragments with images taken from nature. Auerbach makes powerful use of the color red in several especially effective pieces; and presents movingly mysterious images of dusk and the not-quite-seen things […]
