recycled. These details are important—any submissions that don't
include all requested information will not be considered.
Final decisions will be made by December 20, 2006. If your
work is selected, you will be contacted by email only. We'll need
the screening copy of your work in hand by January 12, 2007. Please

PROJECT
Holiday in, The Contemporary Art Centre (CAC),
Vilnius, / Gasworks, London / triangle france, Marseille Deadline
: 20 December 2006
Call for Proposals This unique
package includes all expenses paid travel around Britain, France or
Lithuania; and all exhibitions in each art
centre.
Now-January 2007 Artists from France,
Lithuania, and the UK are invited to propose a threemonth trip
touring one of the participating countries other than their own,
using the host organisation as a studio base while ‘touring’ the
country. Please note that artists visiting Lithuania can include
countries in the surrounding area such as Latvia, Estonia and
neighbouring Poland, Belarus and Kaliningrad, in their area of
research. The deadline for this is 20 December 2006. The host
organisations will then offer a ‘tour package’ that facilitates the
project. This ‘package’ includes: all travel costs, support for
production, a studio, sustenance fees, an exhibition in each
partner’s country, and a publication.
March-May
2007 Six travel projects, two in each country, will be
completed in total. Between April and July 2007 the artists will
conduct their research and travel, working in liaison with their
host venues. They will complete a weblog with images and texts about
their experiences, forging a contact with the other travelling
artists and creating a critical dialogue as the project unfolds.
June-August 2007 Artists will prepare and finalise
work for three exhibitions, each taking place two weeks apart at the
different host venues. Artists will be supported in the production
of work for three different exhibitions (one in each venue),
scheduled to open in September 2007. The three exhibitions will be
conceived as part of a critical whole formed by Holiday in and will
feature works by all participating artists; however, each exhibition
will also function individually, providing a different facet of the
entire project. For the opening of the first exhibition, a
publication in the three languages will be produced, drawing from
the discussions in the weblogs, and including images of works in
progress and critical texts. The exhibitions will be accompanied
by a series of lectures given by the participating artists and
invited speakers, allowing them to recount their journeys and
discuss their experiences.

The
Department of Safety, Anacortes, WA Deadline : November 30,

age working in any media for summer residency program. Free studio,

proposal at end of residency. Application fee.

The Artist Residency Program (AIR) is
a highly selective and intensive three-month artist residency at the
Department of Safety. At the end of your residency your work will be
shown in the Department of Safety’s art gallery, in the Department
of Safety performance venue, or in the greater Department of Safety
space. You will also acquire undeniably positive experience
organizing and promoting your art exhibit/performance.
The
Department of Safety (DoS) is located in Anacortes, Washington (also
known as the “gateway” to the popular San Juan Islands), 1 hour
north of Seattle and 1.5 hours south of Vancouver, BC. Anacortes is
surrounded by beautiful lakes, mountains, oceans, islands, Orca
whales, and publicly- employed “safety personnel.” In addition to
it’s beautiful location the DoS is an amazing all-ages music venue,
art gallery, recording studio and multi- purpose art space.
Four artists founded the Department of Safety in 2002. Due to
the unique location, facilities, demographic and ideology, the
Department of Safety continues to thrive as one of North America’s
most intriguing live-in artist-run centers. The Department of Safety
is not a Non- Profit entity. It is funded entirely by those who
believe in the project.
The Department of Safety is located
in a previously abandoned fire and police station that was initially
built in 1952. Multiple artists live in and use the facilities on a
daily basis. Kitchen facilities, the interweb and other
communication devices, showers, and “chill rooms” domesticate the
space on the top floor. On the main floor there is a recording
studio, the large performance space, an art gallery, a black &
white darkroom and a personal studios/offices. A floor plan of the
art gallery is included with this application. Artists who are
chosen as residents at the Department of Safety are encouraged to
create work within the confines of the gallery in a site- specific
installation and/or work in the adjacent spaces and/or in the
community of Anacortes. Any thoughtful use of space and community
will be considered and it is important for applicants to understand
the context for which they are creating. This is not to discourage
traditional art practitioners from applying, but we want individuals
to think about context.
