Call for video/filmworks

Video Art- and Shortfilmfest in Halle (Saale) Germany, 09. - 12. June 2011
Application deadline: 18th March 2011

Within the Project Facing the artwork – the viewer in moving images we call for artists to submit video/filmworks which deal with the topic of the perception and/or the perceiver of art. Our aim is to explore through the variety of artistic approaches the role and significance of the audience and the single viewer in relation to the artwork, to the artist and to the art system. We focus on the spectator as observed by the artist - and reflected by the medium of the moving images.

The Getty Foundation is pleased to announce that applications for 2011 Multicultural Undergraduate Internship (MUI) grants to museums and visual arts organizations are available. Since its inception in 1993, the MUI program has supported more than 2,200 internships in Los Angeles-area museums and visual arts organizations. The program aims to increase diversity in the professions related to the visual arts, and to provide programmatic support for local organizations.

The internships are intended specifically for outstanding students who are members of groups currently underrepresented in the museum and visual arts professions: individuals of African American, Asian, Latino/Hispanic, Native American and Pacific Islander descent.

Call for works: 14th Media Art Biennale WRO 2011 Alternative Now

The WRO Media Art Biennale is the leading international forum for new media art in Poland and Central Europe. Since its inception in 1989, WRO has been presenting art forms created using new media for artistic expression and communication, exploring current creative territories and building a critical perspective toward emerging issues in art and society.

Over the years, the WRO Biennales have raised a variety of questions about creative approaches to new technologies and the expanding technosphere of social media—about the creative crossover realms that arise where art and science, economics and social activism intersect.

How does art define your community? Students between the ages of 16 and
24, who live or attend school in Glendale, Eagle Rock, Burbank, La
Crescenta, La Canada or Atwater Village, are invited to answer that
question through a short 2-minute film contest!

Sponsored by the Glendale Arts
, Glendale Friday Afternoon Kiwanis ,
Sedna Solutions , and It Factory Media
, the goal of this project is to use
filmmaking and new media channels to give students a forum to express
their ideas, perspectives and talents while at the same time provide a
much needed commentary on the role the arts play in shaping the
identity of a community.
