Art In General Open Call
When : 2020
Where : New York
Application Deadline : rolling
Application Fee : None
Stipend : NA
Opportunity Description
International Deadline: Ongoing – Founded in 1981, Art in General facilitates the production and exhibition of new work and aims to provide artists with an optimal support structure and venue in which to realize and present their work, whether this format entails an exhibition, event, performance, location-based work in the public domain, or the very platforms of discursive space (i.e. publication, website, etc.). There are a variety of programs that support this mission, including solo commissioned exhibitions and projects, residencies, a site-specific elevator program, and off-site projects.
OPEN CALL
Responding to the current state of artistic and curatorial
practice, Art in General’s Open Call has shifted from its once-a-year
online deadline to a more fluid model of receiving and reviewing
artists’ work. Artists are encouraged to submit project proposals at any
point throughout the year–Art in General’s curatorial staff will review
submissions quarterly.
Proposals should be formatted in a PDF and emailed to opencall@artingeneral.org. Please let us know that you saw this announcement on “ArtDeadline.Com”.
ELIGIBILITY
All artists, regardless of age, gender, and nationality. Artists who are
or will be enrolled in a college or university art degree-granting
program are not eligible to apply
