visual arts to Call visual artists from the region of Bío Bío


GALLERY FOR EMERGING ART

Cultural Balmaceda 1215 The Corporation invites visual artists of the Bío Bío region to submit proposals for exhibitions and artistic events for the program 2008 (second half) of the gallery is located at the headquarters of Concepción. The invitation is to present a building project without technical limitations, which brings about consistency or common concept that considers the room conditions and its location.

Balmaceda 1215 is today an effective platform for positioning the local contemporary art and artists selected in the middle of the national arts.
This call is open to the request and initiative of the visual artists of the region and raises the interest of providing a space for the link between artistic practice and the context of relationships (social, cultural, urban, political, etc. .) articulate and conflicted now our living. We encourage those proposals "in context", which, beyond the effective reach a formal use of art resources, include the expectation of openness and interaction that goes beyond the merely aesthetic.

This proposal, which suggests as a matter of developing the relationship with the context (in its broadest understanding), try to accommodate that part of visual art practice develops a lively discussion and experimentation with regard to its resources, its production methods, alternatives and possibilities of reception. Moreover, the stimulation of an artistic practice on the context expresses the expectation that with the production of work generated situations leading to new perspectives on the environment, and offers new opportunities to live and own the neighborhood or city. On a practical level, we believe that an explicit invitation to do work according to the aforementioned guidance, biased conditions for establishing an enclosed area of \u200b\u200bwork involved in the management of exhibition space dedicated to the development of teaching strategies aimed at the socialization of production displayed.

Projects can be individual or collective. O Applicants should submit the draft work for Balmaceda 1215 room next to a folder on paper and other digital photographs of previous work and the curriculum he or participants.
