COMPREHENSIVE DICTIONARY / Student�s Cultural Center Gallery
in Artists from various fields of art
are invited to submit their digitized portfolio-images (two at least) or any
other images and photo-documentation to the
new international exhibition
project. Written proposals and visual materials should be submitted
exclusively by e-mail ([email protected] or [email protected]) no
later than The theme of the
exhibition
is �Attitudes� and is meant to create an open and liberal approach towards
emerging artists in order to explain the visual world around them. The approach
connects everyday experiences with social critique and creative expression.
Artists
are fostered to examine critically visual representations and media-projected
reality by looking at and analyzing visual world through individually
constructed questioning strategy and by analyzing their own attitudes through
the visual documentation of that reality and its recontextualized
display. The
project seeks to make artists develop increased confidence and the ability to
articulate personal viewpoints in all-encompassing world of
representation-strategies. In order to encourage
DIVERSITY and COMMUNICATION in the arts, the main goal of the project is to
support and provide a virtual international exhibition
space, a sort of a digitized artists� files
directory, for
unaffiliated, emerging contemporary artists and art-students from around the
world working in the visual arts, including the media of photography, video,
performance, and design and to foster an appreciation for the role that artists
play in the global community as commentators and redesigners of the visual
conditions they live in. In
response to the confines placed upon art by established institutions and the
changing practices and demographics of artists, the need for alternative spaces,
programs and partnerships and the new organizational models that are emerging
for the non-profit artist spaces seem to be an inevitable creative strategy.
This
is the first part of an an ON-GOING project which is not conceived to deal with
an �art work� in its own right, but rather with concepts, meanings and
conclusions which are possible to be drawn from diverse perceptions,
attitudes, lifestyles, modes of behavior and
entertainment that, although constructed in different cultural,
ethnic, political and social conditions, have a common interpretative frame and
point of referrence and are seen as the platform for future projects and the
core of a continually updated artists� network.
Please
include: an artist resume
(CV / biography), artist statement, plus visual materials (we prefer digitized images) and any relevant press clippings,
web-sites, etc. PLEASE DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL ARTWORK.
