SHORTCUTS - Una Tittel: online exhibition project
•Application Deadline
01.03.2011
Una Tittel, a network of multi-disciplinary artists based in Berlin, London and Glasgow, is now accepting artworks for consideration in an upcoming online exhibition project. This online, multi-media "space" will be a platform for young curators and artists to collaborate at great speeds, and a place to display art in new ways not possible in the real world. Every month there will be a different guest curator.
The exhibition concept: SHORTCUTS
The best ice skaters conceal grueling physical exertion behind a mask of effortlessness. But is there a fast track to appearing as though one has labored intensely? Can a successful formula be appropriated in order to skip the hard work that goes into making art? Can we cheat at art?
If you have works that you think could fit this concept, please submit no more than 4 images / websites / films / to unatittelshortcuts@gmail.com. The project SHORTCUTS will be displayed entirely online, so all media are welcome, as well as internet-based work.
For more information about Una Tittel, please visit http://unatittel.ryanhays.co.uk/

Mostyn Open, 2011
•Application Deadline
07.03.2011
Carrying a prize of GB £10,000 and open to artists working in all media, of any age and with no geographical limits, Mostyn 2011, the Mostyn Open exhibition, returns in 2011 following the reopening of the Mostyn gallery with major new exhibition spaces. Started in 1989, the Mostyn Open grew quickly to become a major exhibition in the UK art calendar, before developing into an international event from around 2000. With Mostyn’s award-winning new building now open, the Open is back on a biennial basis, in a much greater exhibition area and with a bigger prize than previously, and with a worldwide submission welcomed.
http://www.mostyn.org/whats_on/event_detail/mostyn_open_20
This year’s selectors are the renowned artist Richard Wentworth, international curator Karen Mackinnon and Mostyn’s Head of Exhibition Anders Pleass. The selectors choose the works for the exhibition from the images submitted only, without seeing the artists’ names or CVs, so selection is based entirely on their judgement of the works. Over 500 artists have been shown in the sixteen Mostyn Open exhibitions to date. With all artists looked at on an equal basis, without reference to name or track record, it is an opportunity for emerging artists to be considered alongside established ones, and many artists have exhibited in the Mostyn Open early one in their careers, for example Ryan Gander, Rosalind Nashashibi, David Blandy, Elizabeth Price and Camilla Løw.
The closing date for submissions is 7 March 2011 and the exhibition will take place from 21 May to 9 July 2011. Please either download the application form or, if you prefer, email open@mostyn.org

Wysing Arts Centre Citizen power Peterborough, UK
•Application Deadline

It is a new breed of innovative cross-organisational partnership and is jointly funded by Peterborough City Council, Arts Council England East (ACEE) and the Royal Society of Arts, Manufacture and Commerce (RSA).
Six strands of projects comprise Citizen Power Peterborough, providing opportunities for citizens to build attachment to their surroundings forming the basis for a more sustainable future.
The Arts and Social Change strand is exploring the role of arts and imagination in building a renewed sense of belonging in Peterborough, leading to stronger levels of civic activism in the future.

Artists’ Residencies: Context Matters
Two artists’ residencies, entitled Context Matters, are being planned to run for one year from spring 2011 (anticipated from May). The two residencies will run concurrently and it is planned that both will work closely with self-organised community and voluntary groups in order to make creative responses to the groups and their work. One residency is aimed at an artist – working in any art form – with substantial experience of working within socially engaged and participatory settings, the second is aimed at an artist – again working in any media – with less experience but with a strong commitment to socially engaged and participatory practice. This second artist will receive ongoing mentoring from the first.

Citizen Power Peterborough was set up in 2010 to explore the link between place and identity and develop new ways for people to influence and participate in civic life. It is a new breed of innovative cross-organisational partnership and is jointly funded by Peterborough City Council, Arts Council England East (ACEE) and the Royal Society of Arts, Manufacture and Commerce (RSA).
Six strands of projects comprise Citizen Power Peterborough, providing opportunities for citizens to build attachment to their surroundings forming the basis for a more sustainable future.
The Arts and Social Change strand is exploring the role of arts and imagination in building a renewed sense of belonging in Peterborough, leading to stronger levels of civic activism in the future. Creative and arts based approaches underpin engagement for the entire programme of Citizen Power through a wide range of programmes that place artists at the centre of re-imagining social change within communities.

Artists’ Residencies: Context Matters
Two artists’ residencies, entitled Context Matters, are being planned to run for one year from spring 2011 (anticipated from May). The two residencies will run concurrently and it is planned that both will work closely with self-organised community and voluntary groups in order to make creative responses to the groups and their work. One residency is aimed at an artist – working in any art form – with substantial experience of working within socially engaged and participatory settings, the second is aimed at an artist – again working in any media – with less experience but with a strong commitment to socially engaged and participatory practice. This second artist will receive ongoing mentoring from the first.

Noorderlicht Photofestival 2011, The Netherlands
•Application Deadline
31.03.2011
Noorderlicht calls on photographers, curators and photo agencies to submit work or proposals for METROPOLIS, City Life in the Urban Age.
Deadline for submitting is 31 March, 2011. Please read our conditions and technical details first.- http://www.noorderlicht.com/en/photofestival/submitting-for-the-2011-photofestival/
pandora@noorderlicht.com
We are looking for photo series that present a distinctive, even idiosyncratic vision on the character of the modern city. Economic, social or urban planning aspects can each play a role; the series may be literal or metaphorical. We are striving for a global picture; the group exhibition as a whole will be a journey through cities in all parts of the world.
The precise sub-themes will be set out in a following stage of the project. We list several possibilities as examples:
Symphony: The city as the effervescent economic and social nerve centre of modern society, a place for progress, interaction and infinite possibilities;
Mutability: Space that is the product of urban planning, with architectonic dreams of the good life for all the city's inhabitants; from old ideals of equality to modern technology and sustainability;
Expansion: The urge for unbridled expansion in the name of progress, creating new chances but also pushing the old into oblivion; a place of migration, on the way to a better future, even if that means a life in the chaos of the slums;
Seduction: Where massive economic differences exist and everyone is seduced by a mass media landscape to seek greater wealth, where millionaires live next to the homeless;
Fear: Places where the individual can be swamped in a mass of strangers; where the demands of the rat race for success stand in the way of authentic living.
