Looking for Site-specific Installation Artists
Submission deadline April 15, 2009
Hera Gallery in Wakefield in collaboration with Independent Curator, Viera Levitt, is preparing the 'Mobile Art Project' as a pilot project for this June and is currently fundraising for its continuation.
The Mobile Art Project will bring contemporary art to communities in Southern Rhode Island where few or no formal art institutions currently exist. The art will be contained in a mobile home, panel truck or another vehicle. We are looking for artists to propose group or solo shows in various media, including video art. We would prefer site-specific installations created directly for the vehicle. We are considering organizing our first show around the topic of 'Goddess' but we welcome other suggestions. Preference will be given to local artists, however proposals from all of New England are also welcome. A small honorarium and budget will be provided.
The shows will include a leaflet and website with photographs from the exhibition, curatorial texts and comments from the public including excerpts from a questionnaire. At each stop on the truck/mobile home's tour, Mobile Art Project staff will be present to speak with visitors.
Please send your proposals by April 15, 2009 and be sure to include: some visuals of the proposal (drawings or collage), a complete image list, a brief artist's statement, resume, an estimated budget as well as a short description of the proposed show and why you think it will fit the 'Mobile Art Project'. Digital entries should be standard JPEG (.jpg) format. The label for each image should include your name. Please also include links to your online portfolio or other supporting materials. For the return of any supplemental materials please include a SASE. We don't accept slides.
Send applications by April 15, 2009 to: Hera Gallery Attn: Mobile Art Project PO Box 336 Wakefield, RI 02880
