Ephemereye Call for Artists - Video Art & Moving Image
Deadline - 06.06.2019
Application fee - FREE
In collaboration with The Cambridge Shahnameh Centre for Persian Studies, Ephemereye announces an Open Call for Artists.
The theme is Interpretation and appropriation of images and stories of Shahnameh. How do Persian classics influence or inspire visual culture in the 21st Century? What is changing in fashion, performance, or the art of moving image itself when it absorbs and appropriates ancient traditions? How does visual intertextuality enrich contemporary discourse?
Whether you have some work related to the subject or feel inspired to make one, this is the chance to have it shown during the event.
Artists are invited to submit their moving image work. Selected works will be included in the exhibition reel for the duration of the show, as well as featured on the official websites of The Cambridge Shahnameh Centre for Persian Studies and the Ephemereye, a video art platform and gallery.
