Philip Brookman, Senior Curator of Photography and

will be the juror for the 2006 Photo Review
Photography Competition. The Photo Review, a highly
acclaimed critical journal of photography, is
sponsoring its 22nd annual photography competition
with a difference. Instead of only installing an exhibit
that would be seen by a limited number of people,
The Photo Review will reproduce accepted entries in
its 2006 competition issue. Thus, the accepted
photographs will be seen by thousands of people all
across the country and entrants will have a tangible
benefit from the competition.
Also, the prize-winning photographers will be chosen
for an exhibition at the photography gallery of The
University of the Arts, Philadelphia, and will be
exhibited on The Photo Review’s website.

EXHIBTIONS
International Noise, Sydney Australia
Deadline : 28th April 2006
New Artist run initiative in Sydney Australia seeking
international artists.
A 9" x 5" Show debuts on 13th May outside
International Noise's favourite Sydney art gallery.
Following the precedent set by the First
Impressionist exhibition in Australia, which challenged
established perceptions of art and its presentation,
we will be paying homage to the nine by five inch
format. This time, International Noise is bringing art
to the doorstep of the community in a white-walled,
moving, high-torque, eight wheelin', free dealin'
gallery: a truck.
A 9" x 5" Show comes hot off the back of
International Noise's inaugural event, Copy Cat,
which saw over 40 local and international artists take
on the photocopier and show their work in
Paddington's Burton Street Bridge, Sydney.
This show is all about format. Be it painting, drawing,
photography, sculpture, moving image, or a sound
piece; as long as the size is right, send your entry
in. Maximum (and minimum) external dimensions for
work (including framing if desired) are restricted to
nine inches by five inches in any orientation and with
a maximum depth of three inches (228mm x 127mm x
76mm). All technology-based entries are to have a
self-contained
power source. (Eg. Batteries.) All works are to be
ready for hanging, fitted with 'D' rings. A 9" x 5"
Show is a curated exhibition as space will be
limited.
Deadline for delivery of works is the 28th of April
2006 and should be sent to:
68 Goodhope Street, Paddington, New South
Wales, 2021, Australia.
Please include stamped, self-addressed return
packaging.
All works are for sale (unless otherwise specified), so
please include a sale price in AUD. International
Noise will retain a 20% commission in the event of
sales.

'Works on Paper' - Flux Factory, New York,
USA
Deadline : 28 April 2006
Flux Factory is putting out a call to artists to submit
works for a benefit exhibition titled 'Works on Paper'.
The exhibition will run for one week from 20-27 May
2006 and will feature works on paper by emerging and
established artists and sell them to a wide audience
of dealers, collectors, gallery owners, artists and
people who want art at extremely reasonable
prices.
Flux Factory is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit arts
organization housed in Long Island City, Queens, NY.
We are having this exhibition to raise money for our
2006 exhibition budget. As an all-volunteer not-for-
profit, we understand the difficulties of exhibiting art
in today's commercially saturated market. In a
climate where galleries often lean towards strictly
commercially viable work, we are turning to the
artists we yearn to support to now help us by
donating work to fund our 2006 season.

MAGAZINE
Shifter #8 “Rules and Representations
Deadline : May 1st 2006
4) Can rules that have been formulated for a specific
purpose be appropriated, salvaged and put to
unforeseen uses? What happens to this appropriated
structure/ language? What is its relationship to the
source structure/ language?
1) (How) Does the represented Subject use the rules
of their given symbolic space to find and articulate
their subjectivity within the rules of that space.
Raising the question of where within the homogenized
spheres of production and consumption in this
globalizing society, are there spaces for subjective
articulation? In the performance of everyday life? In
revolt?
2) If the Subject is (I)tself constituted as a
representation of these rules, are its articulations
also a representation of the same rules? If so, must
we remove the term “Subject” from the previous
sentence?
3) If the Subject is amputated from language, who
speaks? And who is spoken to?
SHIFTER is also currently accepting submissions for a
web-based project titled "The Museum of Contextual
Amputations"

PROPOSALS
Arts Catalyst and SCAN, UK : Dark Places
Deadline : 14 April 2006
The Arts Catalyst and SCAN wish to commission a
number of projects by artists or scientists that
culturally and/or politically interrogate a scientific site
or body of ideas in the UK.
Dotted around the UK, often in improbable settings –
underground or in unremarkable rural settings – and
unseen by the public, are scientific research
institutions that are pushing the frontiers of
investigation.
Dark Places will result in a series of artists’ or
scientists’ projects – which could be film, installation,
exhibition, talks, guided tours, publications, etc –
that take the lid off sites or ideas on the cutting
edge of science.
We are looking initially for proposals for research
projects. Arts Catalyst and SCAN will select 3 or 4
proposals, which will be awarded budgets of £500 –
£1000 for an initial research phase. Should Arts
Catalyst and SCAN then decide to proceed with the
proposals, they will fund-raise for, produce and
promote the resulting projects.
