“This is the only retreat where people actually have to reflect. Where the main activity is to look at the work they are making and have made, and think about what it actually means. What’s good about it, and what’s most important, what’s them about it?" Lyle Rexer, TPMR mentor.

“It felt like time stood still here in Esparon. I could explore the depths of my work in ways that I have not experienced before. I expanded my photographic community with wonderful mentors and photographers. Doing this workshop is a reminder that we are not alone as photographers and that our work can only improve and grow if we open it up for others to see and respond to.” Peggy, alumni 2017

Arm Candy

The Art of Wearable Food
Deadline - April 30, 2019
Application fee - $25

ACCI Gallery is pleased to accept submissions of food-based jewelry, couture, and other forms of edible bodily adornment for “Arm Candy” an exhibition of edible ornamentation. Food has been used as a physical medium for the creation of art throughout history; from the use of egg as a binder in tempera paint to Ed Ruscha's Chocolate Room, first presented at the Venice Biennale in the 1970s. In the world of fine jewelry, when a particularly large gemstone is worn, phrases like, 'that is so beautiful, I could eat it up' are often used. There is a great similarity in discussing food and art as the adjectives used to describe them are easily interchangeable: heavenly, enticing, disgusting, beautiful, tender, dazzling, dull, fragile, weak, strong, elegant, harsh, and delicious. The language of one is the language of the other. This exhibit seeks to challenge artists to work outside their norm or comfort zone in the creation of jewelry, couture, or bodily adornment that utilizes actual food.

Representations *of* food will not be considered. Work must have been conceived with or include actual foodstuffs.

A catalogue of the exhibition will be prepared with a complimentary copy available to all accepted artists and additional copies available for purchase.

Categories Accepted: Jewelry, Body Sculpture or Garment

Submission Fee:
$25 per entry, with up to three pieces per entry

Venue: ACCI Gallery, 1652 Shattuck Avenue Berkeley, California, 94709

Juror: Carolyn Tillie is a freelance writer and exhibiting artist and curator. Having obtained an MFA in jewelry and metalsmithing from CSULB in 1998, she immediately thereafter worked in obtaining a Certified Master Chef certificate from Epicurean school in Los Angeles and Level Two certification from the Wine Spirit Education Trust. She has written for a number of wine industry magazines, the Napa Register, and Metalsmith magazine. As a culinary historian, her first book, Oysters, A Global History was released in 2017. Her food-themed jewelry has been sold in dozens of galleries all over the world and this exhibit will coincide with the release of her second book, A Feast for the Eyes – Food Art from Apple to Zucchini, published by Reaktion Press.

CAMP - 2019 Program

Live, work and study with Laure Prouvost, Adbusters, Bill Drummond, Laurel Halo, Center for Political Beauty & more.
Deadline: various workshop dates
Application fee: No application fee, courses cost €1299 / $1429 / £1119, grants, bursaries and discounts are available

CAMP is the first of a new breed of arts residency. We run five-day residential arts, music, writing, philosophy, environmental and arts-activist sessions. These are no ordinary courses - they are intense, artistic catalysts run by internationally acclaimed practitioners; creative flashpoints designed to change the lives of everyone involved. Our current program includes opportunities to study with Turner Prize winner Laure Prouvost, celebrated composer Gavin Bryars, Cabaret Voltaire founder and world-famous sound recordist Chris Watson, electronic producer of the moment Laurel Halo, KLF/K-Foundation co-founder Bill Drummond, NYC avant-garde composer/sound artist Eli Keszler, art-activists Adbusters, the Center for Political Beauty, and many others.

It's a place where great art is made, new movements are formed, new ideas are explored and groundbreaking people are nurtured. It's about generating revolutions, incubating creative minds and bringing the best emerging practitioners in all artistic fields to their full potential.
The focus of CAMP is to use what we have – our artistic network, our facilities, our various record labels and publishing operations, our relationships with acclaimed artists and our artist support platforms – to provide people with a catalytic, game-changing masterclass experience, in inspiring surroundings.

Local information: CAMP is located in Aulus les Bains, the last village before the France/Spain Pyrenean frontier chain. The location is spectacular - we are nestled at 750m above sea level, surrounded by snowcapped peaks over 3000m high, ancient forests and cascading waterfalls. There are eagles, lammergeiers, vultures, ibex and bears.
Walk out of the residency, and within ten minutes you are completely alone in one of the most beautiful mountain landscapes in Europe. Aulus les Bains is also a spa village - there are hot water springs, and a thermal spa in the village to take advantage of the healing and relaxing properties of the water.

CAMP provides accommodation for all participants on-site, in the form of private, peaceful rooms with mountain views. CAMP also houses advanced facilities available to all residential students - recording facilities, digital video and photography editing suites, rehearsal and performance spaces, fine art studios, a cinema, an arts library and numerous installation spaces. All food and drinks, including local specialities, wine and cheese, are included.

Artists benefit from an intense, catalytic learning experience studying their chosen discipline with one of the most celebrated artists in their field. They live, eat, study and create with their session leader(s) for a week, gaining new skills and insights, building their network, learning new techniques and approaches.

After the session, all participants benefit from our post-course support. We run an art gallery and performance venue in the UK, a publishing house, three record labels, a radio station and are part of an extensive European touring network. We provide ongoing support to all participants, offering exhibition, release, broadcast, touring and publication opportunities, as well as ongoing training and networking.
We're extremely keen that our sessions form a career-changing point in an artist's professional life.

Additionally, attendees can take part in optional activities to make the most of their stay in this incredible place - mountain expeditions, wildlife walks and visits to some of the most beautiful spots in the area.

Grants, bursaries and educational discounts are available - see campfr.com/funding for more details.

• public art, monuments and memorial sites
• public debate
• public broadcasting
• public interest
• public threat/security
• and other whatchamacallits with public dimension.

47 years of poking fun at issues of utmost social significance give us the confidence that it is time to call on humour in order to deconstruct and redefine whatever is left nowadays of the concept of publicness.

The 24th Gabrovo Biennial of Humour and Satire in Art is comprised of a competition and a curated exhibition. The competition is held in two sections: cartoons and contemporary art.

The Biennial is organized by the Museum of Humour and Satire, Gabrovo Municipality and the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Bulgaria. The Organizing Committee is chaired by the Mayor of Gabrovo.

The Biennial will open on 17th May 2019 at the Museum of Humour and Satire in Gabrovo. The exhibitions continue until 30th September 2019.

Eligible for the contemporary art section of the competition are works of art executed in any technique and media.

Prizes:

• Golden Aesop Grand Prix in section contemporary art – a statuette and 2 500 euro (5 000 BGN)
• Prize of the town of Gabrovo awarded to a promising young artist – a statuette and 1 500 euro (3 000 BGN)

The cartoons competition section includes the following categories:

• Cartoons – original works signed by the artists, up to A3 size, digital works, including animated cartoons (gif, flash and video)
• Artist cartoon or comic strip books

Prizes :

• Golden Aesop Grand Prix in section cartoons – 1 500 euro (3 000 BGN)
• Prize for cartoon – 1 000 euro (2 000 BGN)
• Prize for artist cartoon or comic strip book – 500 euro (1 000 BGN)

The prizewinning works remain in the collection of the Museum of Humour and Satire. When preparing your application, keep in mind that the jury will judge your work by:

• its artistic merit,
• engagement with the biennial theme Dimensions of Publicness
• and humour.

All three are criteria are essential!

ArtEZ Master of Theatre Practices

Call for Applications 2019
Deadline: March 11, 2019

Anything Whatsoever by Katie Ward, photo Marije van den Berg

The Master of Theatre Practices is a two years intensive master’s degree programme in contemporary performance, theatre, dance, live art and performance art making.
The programme is specifically tailored and designed for performance practitioners, and professionals with experience and knowledge of performance practice, theatre, choreography, live art, somatic or body practices.

Apply until March 11th, for a limited number of places available.

-

The ArtEZ Master of Theatre Practices aims at challenging and expanding the notion of performance and interrogating how embodied actions create social meanings. It offers a rigorous, partly taught, partly research driven study, dedicated to developing de-disciplined, diverse, equitable and resilient performance artists and practitioners. Participants design the trajectory of research in close dialogue with a team of experienced tutors and inspiring guests from an international network in the performing arts.

At the heart of the programme lies the unique combination of contemporary performance studies and cutting-edge practice-as-research investigations. Informed by critical theory and the latest developments within artistic practice, this course locates performance into its socio-political dimensions and aims to interrogating the precarious and urgent role of art in society.

The programme’s vision is to create a de-disciplined, diverse thinking programme that promotes performance making as a strategy for equitable societies and resilience, investing in the empowerment and continuity of the artistic practices of practitioners. By the end of their course, students will have developed a portfolio of projects that advance notions and practices on the making of artistic work, as well as a critical self-positioning in the professional field of the performing arts.

Discover more about the programme in our Brochure for 2019:
https://www.artez.nl/media/open_dagen/a5_performance_practices_brochure_nov__2018.pdf

-

Are you interested in empowering your artistic practice through discourse, experimentation and feedback?
Do you see research as a practice that enriches and sharpens your art making?
Do you wish being part of an international group of artists in dialogue with the contemporary field of the performing arts?

We welcome applications from:
- Practitioners who hold a BA in Theatre or Dance, or associated fields, and aim at developing their artistic experience and professional expertise.
- Artists with a curiosity for learning, a spirit of experimentation, and an ambition to grow, who are committed to art-making as a life-long practice in dialogue with peers and audiences.
- Students who are able to self-organize and sustain autonomous periods of work as well as welcome collaboration, being open to work with and learn from peers.
- Learners who envision their research question as a question which is not only their own but a contribution to the field of performing arts and to contemporary society.

Canvia: A new way to promote and earn from art. Open call for artists

Deadline: March 31st 2019
Application fee: None

We're an arts and technology startup seeking artist contributions for our first project Canvia, a new way of experiencing, promoting and earning from art.

Canvia is a digital hardware display that uses smart technology to look like an actual painting or print. It connects to an online library of art and photography, enabling users to choose and explore works to suit changing moods, occasions and contexts - all while providing an authentic art viewing experience.

Following a successful crowdfunding campaign ($283K device pre-sales and international customer base including 35 offices), we are now expanding our library. We're interested in licensing the works of artists of all types and backgrounds as digital reproductions for use on the Canvia network; these would only be accessible to our users and the license would not impact any physical sales or prints, or displaying your work elsewhere online.

As well as a great way of promoting your work to a global audience and driving traffic to your portfolio, all contributors will receive a share of our subscription revenues.

For more information, please send a portfolio link or sample thumbnails of your work to [email protected].
