200 Voices: Open Call
Deadline: December 31, 2011
200 Voices: Open Call
200 Voices will profile, spread and showcase some of the world’s most exciting artists online throughout 2012. Launching on January 1, submissions will be streamed throughout the year. On your more detailed online profile, we will upload information regarding your specific art practice, artistic portfolio and details of any upcoming exhibitions.
We are asking for submissions of an image, short film, piece of music or text which reflects on your local experience as a practising artist in your country. What is it like to be an artist working in your country? How do your local surroundings and context influence your work and your practice? Is there anything you would like to say to other artists across the world about your situation? Your submission could even be a photograph of your studio or the view from your studio window.
In 2012 the eyes of the world are on London and the UK for the world’s biggest sporting event, the London 2012 Olympics. We want to reflect this global occasion back to those people looking into the UK. We want to give artists from all over the world the opportunity to tell the world what it’s like to live and work in their country in the 21st century. To inspire and be inspired.
We are asking for submissions by the end of December. For more information and examples of submissions already received, please look on our website using the link below or contact Miriam Metliss: [email protected].
