Programmation 2021 / PANACHE art actuel
19 février 2021
 
/ Sept-Îles (Québec)
 
PANACHE art actuel invite les artistes et les collectifs à soumettre un projet de résidence de recherche/création et diffusion pour sa programmation 2021. Depuis 2014, PANACHE est fier de soutenir les démarches artistiques d’artistes d’ici et d’ailleurs en offrant le territoire nord-côtier aux créateurs. Le mandat de nos résidences est de permettre un moment d’exploration et de création afin de produire une exposition nomade qui pourra être présentée dans notre réseau à travers le projet de diffusion La Virée de la culture.​

Direction artistique

PANACHE art actuel s’intéresse à la mise en valeur des singularités nord-côtières telles que les notions de rapprochement/éloignement et d’espace/temps. Il soutient la recherche reliée à des thématiques qui découlent directement des caractéristiques particulières de la région (distance, éloignement, environnement, espace, territoire, ressources, isolement, etc.).

PANACHE art actuel se définit également, dans ses activités, comme une plate-forme de dialogue entre l’artiste et la population. Lors de votre résidence, une conférence, un atelier ou une performance en lien avec votre travail sera initié par le centre pour atteindre cet objectif.​

Le territoire

L’immense territoire de la Côte-Nord, allant de Tadoussac à Blanc-Sablon, en passant par Fermont et l’île d’Anticosti est un territoire grandiose bordé par le fleuve et le golfe Saint-Laurent. Que ce soit pour le dépaysement ou pour découvrir sa diversité, la Côte-Nord est une destination unique pour la recherche et la création artistique.

Comme un grand terrain de jeux créatif, nous vous offrons la Côte-Nord et ses ressources comme lieu de création flexible. Nous recherchons des projets originaux en pertinence avec la destination que vous choisirez dans la région.

Projets de résidences

Description de la démarche artistique (250 mots);
Description du projet de résidence, des besoins spécifiques et du choix de la destination sur le territoire* (650 mots);
Curriculum vitae (3 pages max.)
Dossier visuel comprenant 10 images et liste descriptive des œuvres;
S’il y a lieu, document de presse (3 pages) et vidéographie (5 minutes);
Échéancier (2 semaines de résidence minimum);
Budget (PANACHE offre un cachet de résidence, détails sur demande).

Nous offrons deux plages horaires, soit à l’été 2021 ou à l’automne 2021. Merci de préciser quelles seraient vos dates de préférence.

Date limite : 19 février 2021

Envoi des dossiers par courriel uniquement à :  info [arobas] panacheartactuel [point] com

Les dossiers doivent être compressés lors de l’envoi (fichier ZIP, WeTransfer, Dropbox). La sélection des projets se fera par un jury de pairs et nous ferons parvenir un accusé de réception et l’avis du jury à chaque personne nous ayant envoyé un dossier.

Le centre respecte la loi sur le statut de l’artiste et verse des droits d’exposition aux artistes en plus d’assumer la promotion, les frais de transport, ainsi qu’une aide aux déplacements sur le territoire de la Côte-Nord.

*PANACHE n’a pas de lieu fixe pour l’accueil en résidence, notre équipe offre un soutien pour les différents aspects liés à la réalisation de la résidence (lieu de production, hébergement, équipement de production, etc.). Nous pourrons vous guider en fonction de vos besoins.

Call for Proposals: Blue
Koffler.Digital Online Exhibition
Submission Deadline: February 21, 2021, 11:59 PM
Full details here

Koffler.Digital invites artists and collectives to submit proposals for the creation of digital works that examine the colour Blue and its evocations. Selected works will be presented in an online exhibition curated by Letticia Cosbert Miller, Director of Koffler.Digital.

Much has been said about the absence of the colour Blue from the earliest Western cultural records, being the last colour to emerge in many languages and, thus, the visual imagination. But what of Blue’s contemporary exploitation? What has this particular colour, filtered through innumerable cultures and collective experiences, come to signify psychologically, emotionally, spiritually, politically?

As a guide, we are interested in proposals that use the colour Blue as a lens to critically engage with the following indications:

rest, sleep, quiet, peace, tranquility, respite, leisure; divinity, spirituality, piety, reverence, devotion, care, deference; otherness, incorporeality, that which is misunderstood, that which is unknowable, the metaphysical, aerial, spectral, transcendental; mourning, loss, sorrow, melancholia, grief, desolation; militarism, colonialism, conquest, surveillance, policing, compliance, subjugation

We are seeking proposals for the creation of original artwork with the ability to be presented online, such as video, sound, animation, illustration, photography, integrative media, etc. We are especially interested in proposed works that incorporate interactive elements, [to be implemented in collaboration with Koffler.Digital’s production team]. Artists living and working across Canada, at all levels of their career, are welcome to apply. Please note that we will not accept proposals for work that has already been produced and publicly exhibited.

The deadline for submissions is February 21, 11:59 PM. Production of successful proposals will take place over the remainder of winter and spring, with final completed works due June 2021.

All successful applicants will receive the following compensation for their work:

$1,250 artist fee
$750 production fee (up to)
Submission Guidelines

Please email your submission as a single ZIP attachment to lcosbertmiller [arobas] kofflerarts [point] org with ‘Blue Proposal’ as the email subject line.

Proposal Description: 500 words max.
CV, Artist Bio, Links to online portfolio: 2 pages max.
Production Budget: $750 maximum
Support Materials: up to 5 sketches or time-based media materials that support your proposal and/or examples of relevant previous work

submissions from Canadian clay, glass and copper enamel artists for Confined, a national group exhibition.

In March 2020, Covid-19 brought all of us to a standstill. Many artists didn’t even have access to their studios. As Covid-19 continues to affect us all in our daily life, we invite clay, glass, and copper enamel artists to express in their art what the imposed confinement meant for them.

Mental health issues, anxiety, financial burden for some, but also time to reflect, conceptualise, create for others, the conflict and diversification of personal and professional life are possible themes…and more.

Multi-media works and those that incorporate new media within the use of clay, glass, and copper enamelling will be considered.

The selected works will be presented in the exhibition starting in January 2022. A publication will also be produced. The Gallery will provide an artist fee (as set out by CARFAC) to the selected artists and cover the costs of shipping and insurance for the duration of the exhibition.

We welcome submissions from all qualified applicants and encourage submissions from groups that are typically underrepresented in institutional spaces, including racialized and Indigenous individuals, LGBTQ2S+ identifying individuals, francophone individuals, Deaf persons, and persons with disabilities. If you require any accommodations during the submissions process, please contact assistant [arobas] theclayandglass [point] ca or 519-746-1882 ext: 235.

SUBMISSION DEADLINE
All materials must be emailed to assistant [arobas] theclayandglass [point] ca with the subject line “Confined” by Friday April 2, 2021. Notification of the results will be sent by June 2021.

SUBMISSION MATERIALS
In a single document, emailed to assistant [arobas] theclayandglass [point] ca, with the subject line “Confined”, please submit:

A written statement describing the work that you propose for the exhibition as well as its significance to the theme (50-100 words). Works in-progress and concepts for works to be completed will also be considered.
Up to 5 images of your work, including titles and dimensions of works. Provide sketches for works that have not yet been completed.
An artist statement describing your practice, interests, and what the concept of confinement means to you (up to 250 words).
A CV that includes, at minimum, your education as well as any relevant exhibition, publication, and installation history (maximum 3 pages).

ABOUT THE GALLERY
Located in Waterloo, Ontario, the Canadian Clay & Glass Gallery is Canada’s only gallery dedicated to the exhibition and collecting of contemporary Canadian clay, glass, and copper enamelling. Through exhibition programs, publications, clay and glass studios, and an archival centre and library, the Gallery supports research and creation by emerging, mid-career, and established artists. The Gallery is accessible, with the exception of exhibitions and events held in the John A. Pollock Family Courtyard, which is not fully accessible to visitors with particular mobility aids at this time.

We acknowledge that we live and work on the traditional territory of the Attawandaron, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples. The Canadian Clay & Glass Gallery is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land promised to the Six Nations that includes ten kilometers on each side of the Grand River.

VIFF ANNOUNCES 2021 FESTIVAL DATES & CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

The Vancouver International Film Festival (VIFF) announced today that its 40th edition
will take place from September 30 – October 10, 2021. The landmark edition will
feature both in-cinema and online screenings, with approximately 100
features and 100
shorts to be screened in a showcase of exceptional films from around
the world. The scope of VIFF’s brick-and-mortar events will be determined in the
coming months as the organization continues to closely monitor the COVID-19
situation.

Submissions for the 2021 Festival are now open via FilmFreeway
www.filmfreeway.com/VIFF – for features, documentaries and short films, as well as
narrative-lead virtual and immersive content.

Featuring an extensive and diverse collection of contemporary Canadian cinema, VIFF
invites exciting new voices to share the spotlight with national treasures and fosters
enlightening dialogue. VIFF’s 2020 edition featured 65 Canadian features and shorts
playing in competition. 52% of those selections were by female filmmakers and 45%
were by BIPOC filmmakers. Likewise, it included international work from 65 countries,
including narratives that demonstrate originality, documentaries that change the way
we see the world, and short films that push
the form to its limits.

« The adversity presented by the pandemic hasnt just forced us to adapt our approach
to programming and presentation, its demanded that we re-envision how we
meaningfully engage with creators and connect audiences with vital work, » said Curtis
Woloschuk, VIFFs Associate Director of Programming. « We cant wait to bring our
collective inspiration to bear as we once again reinvent ourselves for our 40th edition. »

The 2021 VIFF will once again expand the frame to include conferences, talks,
workshops and other unique events that celebrate innovations in cinematic storytelling.
At VIFFs 2020 edition, these events included talks with the likes of Charlie Kaufman
(Im Thinking of Ending Things), Garrett Bradley (Time) and Eliza Hittman (Never
Rarely Sometimes Always), the VIFF Immersed Exhibition of narrative-driven VR
experiences, VIFF Labs, the VIFF AMP Music in Film Summit, and an evening of music
and conversation with Beverly Glenn-Copeland (Keyboard Fantasies).

Furthermore, VIFF is inviting immersive storytellers from British Columbia and around
the world to submit their narrative-driven Virtual and Augmented Reality (XR) content
to the International VIFF Immersed Competition. Finalists will be showcased at the
VIFF Immersed Exhibition during this year’s Festival. In 2020, the VIFF Immersed
Exhibition was hosted across six online channels  » making it the most widely
accessible festival platform for story-driven XR content.

Submissions are now open for all sections of the Festival:
features, documentaries, short films, and VIFF Immersed. More info can be found at
http://goviff.org/submissions. Projects can be submitted via FilmFreeway at

Physical/Material: What Labs Arts & Archival Residency Program

What Lab is now taking applications for its revised residency program.

Resisting the global push to digital performance spheres, What Lab is instead offering
time and resources for artists to look inward, to consider the analog, and to expand
documentation and archival practices.
Physical/Material provides opportunities for local creators to experiment with new forms,
ideas, and challenges. In response to COVID-19, the residency will focus on
documentation of the creative process and archival practices, as opposed to
performance. The physical materials created throughout these
residencies will become
the inaugural records of the What Lab Archive.

Application Deadline: Wed, March 3rd, 2021

and encourage you to connect and share your practices with each
other. In
conversation with the participants, we will produce a digital
exhibition/archive of your residency activities. Residencies will take
place between May and October 2021.

We will provide:
an artist fee of $1500;
a CARFAC rate fee of $322 for an online public talk or presentation of
your research from the residency;

Onassis AiR 2021/22 open call

Onassis AiR, the (inter)national artistic research residency program in Athens (Greece), invites artists, curators, designers, activists, collectives, educators, legal advocates, performance makers, economists, architects, filmmakers and other practitioners from any medium of expression or discipline to apply for the second iteration of The School of Infinite Rehearsals: Movements V–VIII, running between September 2021 and June 2022.

Governance: On Self-Organization & Institutions
Movement V: Self-Organization
September 6–October 24, 2021

Movement VI: Institutions
November 1–December 19, 2021

Economies: On Community Economies & Philanthropy
Movement VII: Community Economies
February 28–April 17, 2022

Movement VIII: Philanthropy
May 2–June 19, 2022

Conceived as a collective research program, The School of Infinite Rehearsals brings together an interdisciplinary group of participants to exchange knowledges and practices around two research topics that we find urgent to address today.

For our second year, we will look inwardly and also outwardly, for the spatial and temporal structures that affect the ways we live, act and come together. How do we relate to others and how do we organize our decisions? What modes of governance do we adhere to and how do we shape them? What economic systems do we choose to be complicit in and how much agency do we claim to implement radical alternatives? How do we institute our knowledge(s) and acknowledge our institutional complacency or complicity?

In fall 2021, Movement V & VI will collectively explore issues of governance, delving into self-organization (Movement V) and institutions (Movement VI).

In spring 2022, Movement VII & VIII will tackle areas of economies, with a focus on community economies (Movement VII) and philanthropy (Movement VIII).

Onassis AiR is not looking for answers, but rather for questions, intricacies, aspirations, intuitive strategies that need to be tested, and for ways to imagine other modes of functioning as societies. In conversation with our current participants, we are transforming to further expand and foster our collective and horizontal ways of thinking and practicing together. For this reason, there will be no conveners or mentors. The 2021/22 Movement Groups (V-VIII) will be convened by the participants themselves, who will co-shape the curriculum according to their proposed individual research interests.

The selection for the Onassis AiR 2021/22 open call will be done in two phases. Phase I follows a peer-to-peer blind-selection method by the current participants of Onassis AiR 2020/21. During Phase II the selected applications will be reviewed by the Onassis AiR team together with an advisory board consisting of Grégory Castéra, Binna Choi & Marianna Takou (Casco Art Institute), Ilaria Conti, Karthik Pandian, and Piergiorgio Pepe.

The working language of fall 2021 & spring 2022 Movement Groups is English.

All accepted participants will receive a research fee, housing, travel to/from Athens, a collective research budget, and other resources.

Our past present
Driven by its founding principles that are based upon collective artistic research and a self-organized and process-oriented ethos, Onassis AiR, the (inter)national artistic research residency program in Athens, continues to evolve as a growing community of peers from Greece and abroad. Like any living organism that continually grows based on information extracted from its surrounding environment, Onassis AiR transforms and adapts its programs with characteristics that are passed from one movement to the next. From individual research needs to fostering a collective research study, the experiential and the tactile have become core components of how we think and practice together. Over the past 18 months, we have experienced different ways of “cohabitation” in the AiR house, that now belongs to more than 50 artists, curators and art practitioners, who between September 2019 and January 2021, have taken part in programs developed by Onassis AiR in collaboration with our participants, colleagues, and guests.

Onassis AiR was established by the Onassis Foundation in September 2019. Onassis AiR team: Ash Bulayev, Nefeli Myrodia, Georgia Giannakea and Myrto Katsimicha.

CALL TO ARTISTS FOR EXPRESSION OF INTEREST (EOI) PUBLIC ARTWORK FOR EGLINTON WAY BIA IN TORONTO
Value of the Awarded Commission: Approximately $50,000 CAD (inclusive) per artwork
Deadline for Submissions: March 17, 2021 by 11:59 pm EST.

STEPS Public Art, the Eglinton Way Business Improvement Area (BIA) and the City of Toronto invite Ontario-based professional artists (including artist teams) to submit their Expression of Interest to the first stage of a competition for public artwork(s) that will be installed at one (1) of five (5) locations along Eglinton Avenue West in 2021 and 2022.

The sculptures will be selected through an open, two-stage competition, with a total budget of approximately $50,000 (inclusive) per artwork. The project budget includes all costs directly associated with the artwork: including fees for design, fabrication, installation, engineering and professional services, insurance, travel and other incidental expenses.

For the full details regarding this opportunity please click here.

COMMUNITY BACKGROUND
Situated at a nine-block stretch at the north end of Toronto’s Forest Hill neighbourhood, the Eglinton Way BIA is a picturesque and pedestrian-friendly area that is considered to be one of Toronto’s most fashionable shopping districts.

Like many other BIAs along Eglinton Avenue West, the BIA has been impacted over the years by the construction of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT. By partnering with the City of Toronto to commission these public artworks, the Eglinton Way BIA hopes to create a truly unique art and shopping experience outdoors, unlike anything the city has ever seen.

The BIA’s goal over the next five (5) years is to bring twenty-five (25) of these sculptures into the neighbourhood.

PROJECT DETAILS
Following a competitive Selection Panel process, shortlisted artists will be asked to develop a design concept for one (1) site. The sites will be assigned to each of the shortlisted artists. The five (5) sites within the Eglinton Way BIA catchment area will be described in detail in the Terms of Reference (TOR) for the short-listed artists.

TWO-STAGE COMPETITION
This is a two-stage, open, Ontario-wide competition for professional artists.

Per the Canada Council’s guidelines, a professional artist is defined as someone who:

has specialized artistic training (not necessarily in academic institutions);
is recognized as a professional by their peers (artists working in the same artistic tradition);
has a history of public exhibitions; and/ or
has produced an independent body of work
A specially convened Selection Panel, composed of practicing arts professionals, BIA and community members, will be established for this competition.

Stage 1: Request for Expression of Interest: March 17th – May 1st, 2021

The Selection Panel will review all submissions and meet in early April 2021 to identify a short-list of ten (10) artists, based on artistic excellence, relevant experience and demonstrated or perceived ability to create and execute an innovative, engaging public artwork that is complementary to the overall design scheme and community context.

Stage 2: Request for Concepts: May 3rd – June 30th, 2021

The short-listed artists will be notified after the selection panel’s first meeting and invited to participate in a four (4) week concept development period, which will result in a final concept design proposal and budget. A detailed TOR document will be provided to short-listed artists, with all of the information required to prepare and submit their full proposals. Short-listed artists will be paid a fee of $1000.00 (inclusive) for this stage.

Each proposal will first undergo a technical review by City staff, in order to assess them for safety and maintenance concerns. Each artist will receive their technical feedback notes and have time to incorporate them into their proposals, if necessary. Proposals that are deemed not technically viable will not advance to the interview stage.

Following the technical review, shortlisted artists will attend a community Open House (virtual or in-person, depending on current Public Health Recommendations) and present their proposals to the community in late-May 2021 (date TBC). The community will provide feedback that will be consolidated and shared with the shortlisted artists and the selection panel. Each artist will have time to incorporate them into their proposals.

Shortlisted artists will attend an interview (virtual or in-person) and present their proposals to the Selection Panel in June 2021 (date TBC). The panel will choose five (5) artists whose vision for the site best suits the overall scope and intent of this project, and has the ability or perceived ability to conceive and realize a public artwork on this site.

The selected artists will be notified in early July 2021. Three (3) works will be fabricated and installed by November 2021. Two (2) works to be fabricated and installed in early 2022. Artists selected to install works in 2022 will be asked to sign a Letter of Intent.

Project Timeline:

February 18, 2020: EOI issued

City of Mississauga – Expressions of Interest
Community Engaged Permanent Public Art: Mississauga’s Meadowvale Theatre
DEADLINE: Monday, March 1, 2021 by 4 p.m. EST.

The City of Mississauga’s Public Art Program invites professional artists and artist-led teams to submit expressions of interest to design a community engaged permanent public artwork integrated into glass panels located in the lobby of Mississauga’s Meadowvale Theatre (6315 Montevideo Rd, Mississauga, ON L5N 4G7), as part of the Theatre’s renovation initiative.

All costs and tasks associated with the fabrication, installation and maintenance of the artwork will be paid for and coordinated by the City of Mississauga.

The artwork will be produced onto glass panels surrounding the Theatre’s control room in the building’s lobby and will be fabricated, installed, and maintained by the City of Mississauga and its contractors. The commissioned artist(s) will be expected to complete the design of the project by October 2021.

The vision of the City’s renovation of Meadowvale Theatre is to contribute to the creation of a welcoming arts space, where residents and artists discover the possibilities for growth and development through artistic and cultural experiences.

Meadowvale Theatre acts as both a prestigious performing arts venue and an important gathering place that draws residents together and contributes to the city’s cultural, social, and economic vitality. The building is an important cultural destination and a community space and incubator for emerging artists. The artwork is to be community engaged work because the Theatre is too – this public art installation will play an important role in connecting the Theatre’s users and visitors to the space, both as a prestigious event venue and as a community arts and culture hub.

 

The selected artist(s) must be willing to work with community members to inform the design of the artwork and it is expected that the selected artist(s) will facilitate opportunities for community engagement. The artist will create a digital file of their artwork, which will be provided to the City to fabricate and install onto the glass. Artistic integrity will be respected by all project team members.

Submissions to this call are due March 1, 2021. The selected artist(s) will work with community members to develop the design of the artwork. Public art will be fabricated and installed through Q1 2022 and unveiled in Q3 2022.

Total budget for this project is $15,000 CAD + HST

To learn more about this opportunity, including eligibility criteria and submission requirements, review the full Call to Artists made available here.
