International call for artists to start a drawn 'relay travelogue'
•Application Deadline

International call for artists to start a drawn 'relay travelogue'
Play the Panorama - Panographia.com

This is an open call for artists all over the world to begin a 'relay travelogue'.

Participants who use this special panorama drawing instrument continue to draw a moving landscape. Artists are called upon to contribute their interpretation of the world that surrounds them. When the artist completes his/her drawing, the instrument and the panorama must be passed to a next participant who is geographically nearby and whose work is somehow artistically related to that of the previous participant. This next person will continue the former drawing, blending the new landscape into one continuous panorama.

Five special panorama drawing instruments will be given to five artists. The artists will be selected based on their:
-Unique artistic perspective on this project
-Interesting geographic or cultural position
-Personal motivation

habitus in habitat I - Emotion and Motion
•Application Deadline

09.07.2009

Conference
July 9-12, 2009

Emotions are central to human experience and behavior. They condition our
actions and are inherent in all forms of communication. It has also become
widely accepted that there is no cognition without emotion, suggesting that
every formation of cognitive skills and epistemological faculties, every
cultural practice and any form of human communication is accompanied by specific
emotional habitualizations and the formation of anemotional habitus- a set of
habits involved in emotional communication.

An International Competitive Exhibit Exploring the Uncovered Human Form in Current Art
•Application Deadline

17.07.2009

The subject of the nude is ubiquitous in the study and practice of art. Some may think that it is merely nostalgic, sentimental, or in some way lacking in relevant content - that it is passe. However, at Manifest we take a stand for the validity of the practice of what may have once been 'traditional' disciplines, and for the idea that these can also be part of leading contemporary thinking and activity in the visual arts. With N U D E we are asking, "Where is it now?"
