The climate crisis is an urgent global concern. Self as Universe: Mending Our Collective Ecosystem Residencies at A Studio in the Woods invite artists to explore the connections within our collective ecosystems and use the power of imagination to heal the wounds in the relationship between ourselves and our communities. Southeast Louisiana’s land and inhabitants are continually scarred by the effects of environmental degradation. These injuries – the historical to the present – affect our bodies, families, communities, and cultures, as well as the land and its other creatures.  We encourage artists to guide our collective response as the caretakers and caregivers to our universe while bringing wisdom, integrity, optimism, and even humor to intentional and timely projects seeking transformation for our species and planet. This new call reflects a desire to repair the disconnection and alienation between humankind and the planet that is hindering the climate movement.

We are open to artists of all disciplines who have demonstrated an established dialogue with environmental and cultural issues. We ask artists to describe in detail how our unique region will affect their work, propose a public component to their residency, and suggest ways how they will engage with the local community.

The history of photography has a long tradition of representing women as subjects but has less to say about women as artists. Today, the roles of women in photography are both behind the camera and in front of it. Who understands women better than women? The female perspective offers an important view of the many facets of womanhood and women’s role in society. This exhibition seeks women photographers who explore and celebrate the myriad ways that they render female-identifying subjects.

After working for almost a decade in the auction and blue-chip gallery world, Erin Schuppert became the Director of Affordable Art Fair NYC in January 2022. With a mission to spread the joy of collecting art in an accessible and welcoming way, the fair holds two editions annually, in March and September. Each fair hosts over 75 galleries from around the world showcasing over 400 artists. Inspired by her vision to make a positive contribution to the vibrant NYC arts ecosystem, Erin began the Fellowship Program shortly after joining the fair. The Program invests in the long-term growth and success of local emerging galleries, inviting them to exhibit at the fair free of charge over three editions. Erin is also proud to work with local organizations such as Arts Gowanus, Materials for the Arts, FIT, and The Art Therapy Project to create joyful, engaging, and welcoming arts experiences.

Project Description

The new UNMC CORE Building (Campus Operations and Research Excellence) – is located in the new EDGE District at the corner of Saddle Creek Road and Farnam Street in Omaha. The EDGE District is anticipated to a hub for health-focused scientific discovery, entrepreneurship and commercialization. The CORE Building will be frequented by UNMC faculty, staff, students, researchers, and more.

The CORE building will enhance existing UNMC research environments with computer-based research and wet lab-based research for drug discovery, oncology research and other strategic research areas at UNMC. The shelled research floors are designed to provide essential lab and office environments, promoting collaboration among startup founders, industry leaders, scientists and inventors. In addition, the incubator lab space – tailored for startups – is outfitted with features and shared equipment to facilitate safe experimentation and expedite research endeavors. For more information about the UNMC research work: https://www.unmc.edu/vcr/about/fast-facts.html

The Edge District will also house other facilities, making it a live/work campus. The Catalyst building combines UNMC’s UNeMed and UNeTech branches with biotech and technology startups to facilitate the growth of research and innovation and allow entrepreneurs, investors and businesses to collaborate in the renovated 1906 Omaha Steel Castings industrial tract. The building will also include space for businesses, a food hall, and more. For more information about the EDGE District, please view this link: https://www.edgeomaha.com

Site and Artwork Overview

This UNMC CORE building (Campus Operations and Research Excellence) is located on the UNMC Saddlecreek Campus in Omaha, Nebraska, and is a hub for cutting edge medical technology and research. The Committee envisions artwork that is striking and bold, and exemplifies the cutting edge nature of the work being done on this campus.

A work that combines concepts about both art and science is preferred. The artwork should add to the inspirational goals of the CORE building, seeking to cultivate collaboration, innovation and discovery, and elevate the university’s role as a leader in innovation and research.

The artwork should also enhance UNMC’s reputation as a center of excellence and opportunity. The artwork can include light and technology, and should be durable and easy to clean. Additional details about potential artwork sites are on the following pages. Artists can use more than one site. Quality over quantity and the adherence to the budget, will be considered.

The Westbrook Music Building is a facility within the Glenn Korff School of Music in the Hixson-Lied College of Fine & Performing Arts at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, which is Nebraska’s only land-grant university. The Glenn Korff School of Music is a professional, comprehensive arts institution devoted to the advancement of music and dance, the preparation of the next generation of arts professionals, and service to the arts professions/institutions. It holds the following key values: collaborative, inclusive, and creative.

The Glenn Korff School of Music brings the world to Nebraska, and represents Nebraska to the world, by bringing together students from a wide diversity of backgrounds to develop their excitement, knowledge, expertise, and practice of music and dance. There are currently more than 400 students enrolled, with areas of study ranging from composition/history/theory, conducting, dance, jazz studies, music education, performance, and more. The Music/Dance Faculty consists of an outstanding array of internationally acclaimed artists and scholars who care deeply about their students and who work in close collaboration to serve the mission of the Glenn Korff School of Music. For more information about the Glenn Korff School of Music: https://arts.unl.edu/music

The new Westbrook Music Building will house an array of rehearsal rooms, practice rooms, the library, a performance space, classrooms, and faculty offices/studios. It is also located in close proximity to the Lied Center for Performing Arts, The Sheldon Museum of Art and its noteworthy outdoor sculpture garden.

Site and Artwork Overview

This newly constructed Westbrook Music Building is located on the corner of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln city campus. The main entrance to the building is located at the corner of the campus that opens to downtown Lincoln. That entrance opens to four-story, light-filled hallway that leads into a lobby with an atrium. That Hallway and Lobby are the artwork site for this project and can be viewed from many different vantage points within the building.

The Committee would consider work that creates a cohesive experience by using the volume and span of the artwork site. The Committee envisions artwork that is striking and bold, and exemplifies the inherent nature, scholarship and/or curiosity of the research, studies, and creativity occurring in the Westbrook Music Building. In the submission, artists should include in the artist statement how they intend to use the artwork site.

The committee would consider many different types of public art interventions, including but not limited to installations and technological works. However, the ceiling in this space was not built to support artwork hanging from the ceiling. For artwork within 8 feet from the ground, the artwork can not extend past 4” to be ADA compliant. Artwork should use materials that are long lasting, and require simple cleaning/maintenance management.

Given the values of the Glenn Korff’s School Music, and in recognition of its status as a land-grant university, the Committee would like to invite students and faculty of the Glenn Korff School of Music to interact with the three finalists twice during the projected timeline. Applicants to this project must acknowledge and consent to the interactivity requested. The first interaction would be an informational meeting, which would take place in the time allotted for finalists to create their proposals, and would be a session where artists can interact with the people using the space for information about what they do and how they envision the space. The second interaction, which would take place during the proposal presentation meeting, would involve students and faculty listening to the finalist’s presentations to the Committee. The final deliberation and decision would be made by the Selection Committee, alone.

The first photographs to be part of the world of art were monochrome prints. The images were captured by large format cameras, developed into negatives and printed in the darkroom. The world of photography has come a long way since then with color dominating so much of what we shoot these days, and cameras now an integral part of our very portable phones.

With so many color images around us there is still something special about a monochrome print, whether it be black and white, sepia or even shades of a single color.  These are the images where all the emotion, texture and beauty are expressed in gradations from light to dark. No matter if your original image was shot with tri x film, a digital SLR, or your phone, if the end product is a terrific monochrome image, it fits the call. 

This large-scale participatory media project will utilize the concept of a traditional quilt through submissions and the lens of current video technology. 

Through this OPEN CALL, (for Baltimore City and Baltimore County residents) Media Artist Mandy Morrison with Curator Aleem Allison, will select a collection of uploaded short videos that explore themes commonly portrayed in traditional quilts, such as comfort, friendship, love, gratitude, history, family, inequality, emotional and physical scarring, and loss. Using video mapping, these individual short videos will be organized into a larger projected time-based "Media Quilt” to be projected in Gallery 410, a downtown (Bromo Arts District) gallery space with large street-facing windows.

The installation is set to run from January 30-March 25, 2025, and the opening on January 30 will coincide with an exhibition opening at Maryland Art Place. The gallery’s location on the corner of Mulberry and Eutaw Streets, is an area with significant car and foot traffic. The all-glass windows of the gallery will create an immersive and dynamic display, especially during the dark evening winter months (January-March) when the projection will be most striking.

This is a project that portends to bring a wide range of individual art and arts-adjacent communities into dialogue that will consist of one singular and evolving piece. 

Along with the exhibition and opening, there will be community engagement initiatives involving both contributing artists and local communities with a primary focus on those who live in or have businesses in the Bromo-Arts District. 

Planned engagement activities include:Intermittent Friday and Saturday night media-jam sessions with refreshments during the exhibition of "A Media Quilt Project" and an Artist Talk and Roundtable with participants hosted by Allison and Morrison. 

All selected artists will receive a modest honorarium, and be listed in publicity/promotional materials.

DEADLINE  for submissions be on Dec. 15 (11:29PM) 

This project is administered by Maryland Art Place with the support of the Robert W. Deutsch Foundation and the Maryland State Council on the Arts

Bios

Mandy Morrison: Having a practice that spans over three decades, Morrison has lived, worked and traveled to many parts of the globe. With experiences that have provided a lens into varied occupations, her work has been influenced by how divisions of labor reinforce class and social order.  With an interest in the meaning of physical as well as digital spaces she views varying structures as conferring distinct forms of entitlement on different populations.  Her interdisciplinary practice spans performance, video, writing and photography and her singular and participatory projects have included dancers, youth groups, and community stakeholders.  Her work has been performed, exhibited and screened internationally at festivals, galleries and museums, including the Peale Museum, Whitney Museum of American Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the Queens Museum, Kunstlerhaus e.V., Hamburg, and CINESONIKA in Vancouver. Grants, fellowships and residencies include Tree of Life Foundation, the Puffin Foundation, Maryland State Arts Council, the Robert W. Deutsch Foundation, Illinois Arts Council, the New York State Council on the Arts, Wexner Center for the Arts, Foundation B.a.d. and the Sacatar Institute in Bahia, Brazil.

Aleem Allison’s journey into museums began with an interest in exploring cultural heritage across all walks of life. From an early age, his path through museums started in his hometown of Detroit, Michigan, expanded to museums in Germany and Japan. Building his practice through Morgan State University’s Museum Studies graduate program, he has participated in various initiatives aimed at bridging the gaps between museums and a variety of cultural communities. As a cohort in 2023-24 Elizabeth Talford Scott Community Initiative - “No Stone Left Unturned,” he helped to lead a series of exhibitions that expanded the recognition of Talford Scott’s quilt oeuvre with presentations of her work alongside collaborative projects in the Baltimore museum area. He has also been able to develop his practice through his life experiences as a veteran of the US Air Force, classroom educator, and world traveler.

Independent & Image Art Space (Chongqing, China) is happy to announce a group exhibition open call "Natural Wonders".

Humans are but small beings in the vast natural world, while nature possesses truly extraordinary power, whose magnificence and grandeur have always commanded awe. This exhibition focuses on natural wonders from across the globe, inviting photographers to explore and showcase these breathtaking phenomena. What kind of natural wonders have you captured through your lens? Is it the traces left by billions of years of geological activity, the majestic sight of waterfalls cascading from the sky, or the rare spectacle of meteors streaking across the heavens and falling to Earth? Perhaps it's the stark contrast between snow-covered expanses and volcanic eruptions, the boundless yet stunningly beautiful depths of deserts, or unique landscapes where ancient human traces have merged seamlessly with nature. 

We welcome photographic works that capture the diversity of natural wonders around the world. Through your lens, let us together experience the power, subtlety, and extraordinary beauty of nature.

Established in 1977, PhotoSpiva is the longest-running competition of its kind.

PhotoSpiva is a national competition hosted annually by Spiva Center for the Arts. Founded in 1977, PhotoSpiva has become the longest-running photographic competition of its kind in the U.S. As stated by the founders, the objective of PhotoSpiva is to “present an exhibition of excellence in photography, celebrating the scope and vigorous activity of today’s contemporary photographers.”

Co-Founder Jim Mueller stated, “We have intentionally avoided any categorization of either photographers or their work in setting forth the criteria for this competitive.” PhotoSpiva welcomes any photographic process as long as it is original artwork and has not been previously exhibited at Spiva Center for the Arts. This philosophy has created an unbiased forum for exhibiting and educating photographers. The PhotoSpiva prospectus, promotional materials and exhibition brochures are distributed to professional photographers, emerging artists, educators, students, and amateur photography enthusiasts throughout the United States.

Eligibility

PhotoSpiva is open to any amateur or professional photographer in the United States or its territories. Submitted images must be the photographer’s own work, and it is the sole responsibility of the photographer to obtain written releases from any recognizable person(s) depicted. Two-dimensional work derived from any photographic process — traditional, digital, or photo-based mixed media — is eligible as long as the work is original and has never been exhibited at George A. Spiva Center for the Arts. Three–dimensional work is not eligible for this competition and exhibition.

Call for Entry: Found Objects - Online Photography Exhibition

 We are excited to announce an open call for entries for our upcoming online exhibition, “Found Objects”. This exhibition invites photographers to explore the beauty, mystery, and narrative potential of objects found in everyday life. Whether discovered in a natural landscape, on a bustling city street, or tucked away in an overlooked corner, found objects often tell unexpected stories. Through this exhibition, we seek to showcase the creativity of photographers who find art in the ordinary.

 Theme: Found Objects  

From discarded items to organic materials, this exhibition will feature works that emphasize the transformation of forgotten or overlooked objects into compelling visual art. We encourage participants to interpret this theme broadly and present their own unique vision.

The Holy Art Gallery is excited to announce that artists now have the chance to participate in two exhibitions simultaneously at our galleries in London and Athens. This dual-location exhibition opportunity is open to creatives of all backgrounds, mediums, and styles—whether your work is in painting, photography, printmaking, video art, poetry, or sculpture.

Submissions are now open for our innovative digital exhibits, which will be displayed on large screens, offering a dynamic, space-efficient platform for showcasing work. This approach also eliminates the need to physically transport artwork to our galleries, making it easier for artists worldwide to participate and share their creations with new audiences.

There is no fee to apply, and artists will only be required to pay a participation fee if selected for the show. For physical pieces like canvases, high-quality photos or videos of the work will be needed for display on our screens.

Submission Details:

• Theme: Open, with no restrictions on subject or size
• Exhibition Dates: December 6-14, 2024
• Submission Deadline: December 2, 2024

This is an exciting opportunity for artists to expand their visibility and be part of a prestigious international event at The Holy Art Galleries.
