1. appels en français du Canada

Appel — Exposition internationale d’estampe numérique miniature 12

Titre/Thème: Je m’épanche, donc je suis
Walter Benjamin l’a annoncé il y a 80 ans. Andy Warhol l’a mis en pratique il y a 50 ans. Et le philosophe de l’art contemporain Yves Michaud l’a récemment proclamé en ces termes : « Du côté des producteurs, des artistes, des fabricants et de ceux qui montrent, il ne s’agit pas de présenter des chefs-d’œuvre mais de marquer sa place, de se signaler et d’exister, y compris, comme souvent, dans la fiction d’une identité reconstruite et inventée. »

C’est le triomphe de l’esthétisme.

La 12e exposition internationale d’estampe numérique miniature invite les artistes à manifester leur vie intime et ordinaire, à jouer à Instagram en images numériques, à rendre la beauté étourdissante des choses vides de sens. Les thèmes abondent : égoportrait, quotidienneté dans sa plus grande banalité, superficialité des vécus, épatement des odyssées spectaculaires et kitch des objets familiers. Le point de vue sera sérieux ou ironique, léché ou brouillon, platement factuel ou étrangement imaginaire. L’important, partout et toujours, est de se mettre en scène et de se faire valoir.

Raymond Aubin, commissaire

Triennale Banlieue / Maison des arts de Laval
4 septembre 2017
Laval (Québec)

UN TRIO DE COMMISSAIRES POUR UNE BANLIEUE EN DÉPLACEMENT
JULIE ALARY LAVALLÉE, JASMINE COLIZZA, NICOLE THIBAULT
ART ACTUEL, THÉÂTRE DE CRÉATION ET DIASPORA SUBURBAINE

Date de tombée : lundi 4 septembre 2017
Dates de l’exposition : été-automne 2018

Après le succès de Banlieue! ordre et désordre présenté lors des célébrations du 50e anniversaire de la Ville de Laval à l’été 2015, le projet Banlieue revient en 2018 sous la forme d’une triennale. Pour cette deuxième édition, il s’agit d’aborder la banlieue nord-américaine comme un lieu d’arrivée, un territoire de projections de tous les désirs.

Comme cette idée de mobilité trouve son prolongement dans l’expérience migratoire, la triennale propose d’aborder la banlieue comme un espace non homogène constitué de communautés multiples. Au Québec, les banlieues, longtemps considérées comme « cités-dortoirs », prennent de l’expansion au point de faire de l’ombre aux villes dont elles n’étaient au départ qu’une extension domiciliaire. Dorénavant, les gens s’y installent, s’y éduquent, s’y distraient ou y travaillent. Le tissu social se transforme depuis déjà quelques décennies. Des membres de communautés culturelles y prennent domicile, des jeunes professionnels fuient la grande ville afin d’esquiver la folie du marché de l’immobilier ou pour bénéficier d’occasions de travail inespérées. On s’expatrie des grandes villes, de la région, d’autres pays. La banlieue incite ainsi au déplacement, à la distance à parcourir. La banlieue n’est pas close sur elle-même, elle est connectée au monde grâce aux technologies tout en étant le reflet de diverses réalités sociales.

L’émancipation suburbaine annonce une souveraineté grandissante bien que dans l’imaginaire collectif, la banlieue symbolise des carences à bien des égards. Or, ces lacunes appellent à la transformation des espaces et à l’émergence d’une offre culturelle sans précédent. La banlieue est un matériau de tous les fantasmes. Elle est le réceptacle de projets imaginaires et critiques, ainsi que d’actions en vue d’en dynamiser son territoire et le rendre plus convivial et humain.

La triennale Banlieue en est une d’arts visuels, mais à l’instar de l’édition de 2015, une seconde discipline est invitée à prendre part à la réflexion. En 2018, la discipline théâtrale est à l’honneur. Défiant les conventions, l’espace et le temps, le théâtre est une forme d’expression de plus en plus poreuse aux autres disciplines artistiques. Le théâtre est un art vivant qui se renouvelle constamment, tout en demeurant particulièrement sensible aux mouvances culturelles et sociales. C’est avec cette envie d’entrer en dialogue que les arts visuels convient le théâtre.

ARTISTE(S) RECHERCHÉ-E(S)
Appel à projets : Vitrine d’été 2017
Date de tombée : le lundi 19 juin 2017 à 23h59
articule invite les artistes et les collectifs d’artistes à soumettre leurs propositions pour un projet de vitrine devant être présenté pendant la période de fermeture estivale de la galerie (juillet 2017). Cette initiative vise à solliciter l’attention des voisin.e.s et passant.e.s en investissant l’espace intérieur et/ou extérieur de la vitrine. Les projets de tous médias sont éligibles ; il n’est pas nécessaire d’avoir présenté en galerie au préalable. articule offre un cachet d’artiste de 1000$. Une fois mis en place, le projet doit être autonome et ne pas requérir le travail des employées du centre pendant toute la durée de l’exposition. Pour plus de renseignements, visitez notre site internet www.articule.org

En ces temps de réflexion sur l’histoire et la mémoire du pays et de notre civilisation occidentale, articule voudrait porter l’appel de cette année sur le thème Invisibilité / présence. Le projet de vitrine pourrait prendre la forme d’une affirmation de voix et de présences trop souvent mises sous silence et effacées de manière insidieuse. Le projet retenu pourrait exprimer des formes de résistance face à l’effacement réalisé par le discours officiel de l’histoire.

Emerging Digital Artists Award (EDAA) 2017

The Emerging Digital Artists Award (EDAA) is currently accepting applications for its 2017 award program. Founded on a desire to support and celebrate digital innovation in the arts, the EDAA caters to early-career artists who are working on-screen, and experimenting with the possibilities of digitally rendered imagery. Applicants are encouraged to play with moving image formats such as video, animation, and GIF art. Get inspired by visiting our website, which features various animations by Toronto-based Niki Sehmbi—our 2017 artist partner, whose eye-catching works can be seen across EDAA 2017 advertising.

This year, our feature artist is not the EDAA’s only exciting collaboration. For the first time, Equitable Bank and their digital banking operation, EQ Bank, are presenting the EDAA in partnership with a local arts organization. Trinity Square Video is Canada’s oldest media arts centre, and an ideal partner for the EDAA given their ongoing commitment to fostering the development of media arts in Canada through their exhibitions and other community programming. A space in Trinity Square Video’s annual Themed Commission program will be reserved for the EDAA 2017 winner, and all finalists will receive a year-long membership to the centre.

If you’re an emerging digital artist based in Canada, apply to the EDAA by completing an online application. The call will remain open until July 10, 2017.

What happens after I apply?

Applications will be juried by this year’s digital-savvy judging panel, including artists Erin Gee and Jennifer Chan, a representative of Trinity Square Video, and Equitable Bank’s resident art curator. Works will be considered against four main criteria:

• relevance, defined by the ways the work engages digital media in its process, presentation, and content;
• technique and demonstrated familiarity with the media;
• aesthetics, or the stylistic choices made by the artist in the work; and
• the 250-word written statement submitted with the application.

Based on their excellence in all areas, five finalists will be selected and invited to show their work in an exhibition at Trinity Square Video in Toronto from September 28 – October 12, 2017. All will be paid for their participation in the exhibition, in addition to the monetary prizes offered. Finalists will be contacted in August 2017.

The award winner will be announced at the EDAA’s closing event on October 5, and offered a $5,000 monetary award. The award includes Equitable Bank’s acquisition of the winning artwork, which will be displayed on-screen in our company’s head office in Toronto. The remaining four finalists each receive a $1,000 award.

Learn more about the EDAA and eligibility by visiting our website, following us on Twitter @edaa_eqb, or sending a line to edaa [arobas] eqbank [point] ca.

Art Gallery of Burlington – Ceramic Courtyard Exhibition Call for Proposals

The Art Gallery of Burlington is welcoming proposals from professional ceramists for its annual ceramic exhibition in the Dan Lawrie Family Courtyard for the summer of 2018.

The Annual Courtyard Installation at the AGB is a site specific installation of ceramic work (some mixed media is permitted as long as the work is primarily ceramic), that reflects some aspect of the space, ranging from the architecture, to the plantings, to the social interaction contained within the space. The artist is encouraged to engage with the water feature and is asked that much of the work is installed on the ground cover and the walls. This exhibition space is used as a public area within the building, including a space for people to eat lunch, private receptions and weddings; the artist is asked to consider that the installation does not interfere with these other uses. This exhibition is open to mid or late career artists with a proven exhibition record.

The Dan Lawrie Family Courtyard at the Art Gallery of Burlington is an enclosed open space measuring approximately 49.6 x 59 feet (16 x 17 metres) with a total area of 2907 square feet, divided between 1406 square feet of hard surface and 1501 square feet of plantings. A water feature with a fountain with three jets flows into a pool with a stone slab bridge. There are three entrances to the courtyard which is on two levels. There is a broad set of three stairs and a wheel chair accessible ramp connecting the different levels. Three walls of the courtyard are one story tall with textured concrete walls and windows (making the installation viewable from inside the building), and the fourth wall is two and a half stories tall with textured concrete and is suitable for a wall mounted installation. There are four trees in the plantings and various low growing ground cover.

Interested applicants should submit the following by June 30, 2017:

• One page presenting the theme of the proposed exhibition
• List of all works proposed, and drawings and/or descriptions
• CV of artist(s)

About UrbanScreen :
UrbanScreen uses high-powered data projectors to illuminate the entire west wall of the Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre with imagery generated by computers. Since its launch in 2010 as the Public Art feature of this recreation facility in Surrey’s City Centre, the Surrey Art Gallery has curated and partnered with artists and organizations to present a rotating program of exhibitions and events at UrbanScreen during an annual season that runs from September to May.

Artworks shown have been created using technology as diverse as the virtual piano, gaming engines, unmanned aerial video copters, and generative image and video databases, with interactive works using text messages to change content, the gyroscope and accelerometer of mobile devices to create movement, and the motion of SkyTrains and the tidal levels of the Fraser River to trigger the presentation and performance of the artworks. To find out more about past exhibitions, visit surrey.ca/urbanscreen.

Beginning 30 minutes after sunset and ending at midnight, UrbanScreen is seen by visitors to the Recreation Centre and adjacent Youth Park, as well as SkyTrain passengers travelling between Gateway and Surrey Central stations (30,000+ people daily).

NAISA is pleased to launch its
2017 Call For Submissions SONIC REFLECTIONS
Deadline June 30, 2017
www.naisa.ca

Categories: Transmission Art/Radio Art, Electroacoustic Music/Sound Art, Interactive Installation Art, and Other

New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) invites artists of all ages and nationalities to submit works on the theme Sonic Reflections for consideration in New Adventures in Sound Art’s 2018 programming.

Sound by its nature reflects in different ways depending on the environment in which it is experienced. These reflections help to give a place its character but they also can obscure elements of an environment. NAISA would like to celebrate the opening of its new facility – NAISA North Media Arts Centre – in South River Ontario with programming that is reflective of the past as well as using that reflection to inform future possibilities. For its 2018 programming, NAISA is interested in submissions that address the notion of Sonic Reflections and creative ways that this can be shared.

Preference in programming will be given to works that respond in some way to the theme Sonic Reflections. Individual interpretations or variations on the theme are encouraged, but should be realized with sound as the primary component. NAISA would also like to encourage artists to submit works on the theme for performance, interactive installation exhibit, audio-visual screening, radio or internet broadcast, telematics, VR/gaming, mobile experiences and any other emerging or alternative formats that include sound as a primary element. Please complete in full the online submission form and upload your audio by midnight on June 30, 2017. Note: there is a $5 submission fee in order to defray the cost of processing the submissions. All works chosen for presentation will receive an artist fee. Only those artists being considered for presentation will be contacted.

Southern Alberta Art Gallery (SAAG) Submission Guidelines
Exhibition proposals are accepted throughout the year and reviews are ongoing.  Selection is carried out over a period of time through studio visits and correspondence with artists and curators in whom the gallery has an interest.  Those interested in proposing their work to SAAG are asked to include with their submission: a curriculum vitae, an artist statement and/or letter of intent, a wide selection of images, and other relevant support material. Submissions should be mailed to:

Southern Alberta Art Gallery
601 3rd Ave. S.

The gallery will not return your submission – please do not send original artworks or valuable materials.   Given the large number of submissions received by the gallery, formal letters of reply will only be issued to proposals of immediate interest.

Exhibitions are generally six weeks in length.  An opening is held to introduce the work to the public.  Artists are also invited to give an illustrated lecture on their work in conjunction with the University of Lethbridge Faculty of Fine Art during the academic year.  Other special events (workshops, panel discussions, etc.) are considered on a case-by-case basis.

The Southern Alberta Art Gallery pays CARFAC fees, shipping and insurance, and often seeks funding to produce catalogues for the exhibition.  All publications, including our quarterly newsletter GALLERY (which discusses and reproduces work by exhibiting artists along with other programming), are exchanged with other institutions in Canada and abroad.

The Southern Alberta Art Gallery fosters the work of contemporary artists who challenge boundaries, encourages broad public engagement and promotes awareness and exploration of artistic expression.  Our work extends to local, national and international communities.
