Upcoming Exhibition Deadlines - Oct 26, 2014 - Nov 1, 2014

[suekaylee]

I have been made aware that several of you are annoyed by my negligence in sending these out. Totally warranted.  Feel free to focus such frustrations directly at me personally.  Of the three main sites I was given to cull from, one is no longer operational, one I exhausted in terms of next week's dates. I did not, however, exhaust http://www.collegeart.org/opportunities/ nor did I include the deadlines which come via Ellen and Figure One in other emails.  Feel free to send me anger emails, or helpful suggestions, or desires for how to make these more useful to us.  suek...@gmail.com  702.686.7026  Until next week, ciao.

Call for Artists: Hidden Rooms - Identities . Cities . Memories

Deadline: October 31, 2014

 

Artists, photographers, architects, performers, dancers and video makers are invited to submit video art works, experimental films, performances art and dance pieces.

 

Venice International video art, experimental dance and performance festival

International ArtExpo,in collaboration with Ca’ Zanardi, is selecting all interesting video art works, experimental films, installations, performance art and experimental dance works to include in the next 2014 exhibition:

The exhibition, under the patronage of the city of Venice, will be held in Venice at Palazzo Ca’ Zanardi, on November 11, 12 and 13, 2014. The event will be part of the festival “Venezia Misteriosa” organized by Ca’ Zanardi in collaboration with Regione Veneto.

HIDDEN ROOMS – IDENTITIES . CITIES . MEMORIES festival is focused on the revelation of the inner facets of our identities, on the disclosure of the hidden shapes of our being. The concept is divided into 3 sections:

HIDDEN IDENTITIES is focused on the closed rooms we have inside. We usually wear temporary identities that reflect environment, societies, places. The exhibition aims to enlighten these rooms, to describe them, to create a new catalogue of human hidden identities.

HIDDEN CITIES is about the underground lifestyles that run on a parallel level of our ordinary life. Everyday behaviours are the actual reflection of cities we have created and that have developed a personal identity. This new city character becomes the new order that modifies our everyday life.

HIDDEN MEMORIES talks about the invisible common ground that unifies all humans. The event wants to represent through video art and performance this hidden line that connects all peoples, religions and cultures.

All artists are invited to reflect on the theme and present works related to the main concept or to one of the three sections.

For the first time International ArtExpo opens a new division dedicated to the Experimental Dance to include in its international exhibitions. Dancers, groups and schools are invited to submit their works and choreographies focused on the festival’s theme.

The event will be curated by Arch. Luca Curci (Founder of LUCA CURCI ARCHITECTS, International ArtExpo and It’s LIQUID Group). The festival’s program will include video art screenings, movies’ projections, live performances and meetings with artists involved.

Hidden Rooms - Identities . Cities . Memorieswill be part of MORPHOS program (Venice, June - November 2014).If you want to have a solo exhibition inside MORPHOS program send us your proposal and we will get in touch with you as soon as we can.
