CreArt Vallodolid, Spain have an artist call for a dual exhibition ‘Event Horizon/Experiences on Time and Space’. The event is curated by Juan Carlos Quindos and held in Patio Herreriano Museum.
CreArt is a network of cities for artistic creation, through the Municipal Culture Foundation of the Valladolid City Council, open a new call to invite both artists from Valladolid and the rest of the cities ( artists must be born or resident in Valladolid – ES, Genoa and Lecce – IT, Liverpool – UK, Clermont – Ferrand and Rouen FR, Zagreb – HR (member of HDLU), Kaunas – LT, Lublin and Katowice – PL, Aveiro – PT; Skopje – MK) to participate in this dual exhibition.
‘Event horizon / Experiences on time and space’ is curated by Juan Carlos Quindós and selected by CreArt, who will be in charge of curating the second exhibition on the 31st. October in “Sala 0” of the Patio Herreriano Museum.
The call – open until July 14 – is available in the Open Calls section of the CreArt website. In the final exhibition, the proposals of an artist from Valladolid and another from the CreArt network, selected by the curator and the organisation, will dialogue together.
‘Event horizon’ proposes to artists an exploration about the limits of the artistic language (visual, sound, performance, etc) that extends our way of understanding and perceiving Time and Space, and their intimate and relative relationships.
Its infinity, its inappreciability. The visual, sound and experience in short, as a hybrid and contemporary way of recognising the increasingly diffuse physical and cultural environment in which we are, and as a privileged and direct way of noticing the liquid and unstable time in which we live, where we transform every day.
This dual exhibition is considered as an exploration whose purpose is to bring closer the horizon of hidden meanings, mediating its decoding and possible dynamic dialogues:
– Among the selected works, leaving a space of relationship and uncertainty that rethinks the perceptive “tempo” of them.
– Between the spaces (and times) that the works of art generate and the exhibition space of the Sala Cero itself through possible specific spatial devices.
– Between the exhibition and a possible collective “space” of public debate through parallel activities that generate theoretical reflection and new readings of the project.
The organisation will cover: the production expenses of the works of the selected artists; the installation, transport and insurance costs of the works; the costs of dissemination and publicity of the exhibition, including a catalog; travel expenses, accommodation and subsistence costs for the artist of the selected CreArt network, on the occasion of the installation and opening of the exhibition (maximum 3 days).
Each selected artist will receive € 500 (including taxes) for fees and up to € 1,500 (including taxes) for work production expenses and transport costs, with prior approval of the organisation. In the case of the local artist, work transport will be covered only within the city of Valladolid.
