Mono No Aware, 2010
Deadline: November 5th 2010
MONO NO AWARE IS AN INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION OF EXPANDED CINEMA PERFORMANCES. TAKING IT'S NAME FROM MOTOORI NORINAGA'S EXPRESSION MEANING "THE PATHOS OF THINGS". THE CONCEPT IS TO PRESENT WORK WHICH IS EPHEMERAL IN NATURE WITH AN EMPHASIS ON THE CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE. ALL OF PRESENTED WORK CONSISTS OF ONE PART FILM PROJECTION AND ONE PART LIVE PERFORMANCE ELEMENT. MONO NO AWARE IS OPEN TO ANY PERSON OR GROUP OF ARTISTS / MUSICIANS / PERSONS MAKING WORK ON 16MM OR SUPER 8MM FILM WHICH INCORPORATES LIVE PERFORMANCE OR VICE VERSA. NO DIGITAL VIDEO. ADVANCEMENTS IN TECHNOLOGY HAVE ALTERED THE AUDIENCE EXPERIENCE AND CONNECTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE CINEMA. WEBSITES, TELEVISION, AND EVEN CELL PHONES HAVE BECOME AN EVERYDAY VEHICLE FOR FILM AND VIDEO. WE BELIEVE THERE IS A MAGIC IN SEEING THE FILM PRINT. THERE IS A PRESENCE A POET HAS READING HIS/HER OWN WRITING. THERE IS A FEELING THAT RESONATES IN YOUR CHEST WHEN YOU SEE A MUSICIAN PERFORM LIVE. IN THE SPIRIT OF THE FESTIVAL WE ASK THAT THE ARTISTS NOT MAKE VIDEO COPIES OF THE PERFORMANCE. EACH MONO NO AWARE PERFORMANCE IS ONE OF A KIND, SOME PARTICIPANTS HAVE GONE SO FAR AS TO DESTROY THE FILM WORK AFTER ITS FIRST RUN AT THE EVENT.
The event will take place on Sunday November 28th 2010, 5PM @ Lumenhouse in Brooklyn, NY.
There is no cover charge. This year we will be offering workshops in film-making starting in August. Images from previous years, past programs, participants, & more information can be found at our website: WWW.MONONOAWAREFILM.COM
Thank you for your time, we hope to see you in
November. MNA

TWO EXHIBITS KICK OFF SEASON 7
CALL FOR ENTRIES
Deadlines: August 25, 2010
HEAD FIRST
An International Exhibit Featuring the Human Head
Full-color catalog produced.
We consciously and unconsciously categorize identity based on the human head. It is, for most people, their social thumbprint, the I in first person statements. Technology exacerbates peoples retreat into the upper limb of their body, encouraging portraiture on a mass scale in the form of social networks such as Facebook, facial recognition tools which help sort photos of friends and family based on images of their face, and video conference calling. Some say even the soul has migrated from the central chest cavity all the way up to the head, as if altitude were really divine.
While the body is still not expendable (yet), the center of humanity has nevertheless coalesced into the mind, behind the face. When we think of each other, we usually start with the head first.
So to launch Manifests seventh season we offer this call to artists for works that address the human head in some way. While portraiture is certainly welcome, this is not intended to be a show exclusively about that genre, nor just the front of the head. All manner of interpretations, explorations, and machinations involving the human head are welcome.
Deadline for entry: AUGUST 25, 2010

FIRST CONTEXTS: Where Art Comes From
An International Exhibit of Works Depicting, Documenting, or Describing the Places Where Artists Make Art
Full-color catalog produced.
Where does a work of art begin?
Historically, the artists studio has served as the crucible of creation for works of art, a zone of creativity for the artist to test, fashion, produce, refine, and otherwise translate their visual ideas into concrete form.
Ranging from spare rooms in the corner of a basement, to renovated barns and garages, to sun-bathed lofts with high-ceilings, the studio is the artists escape from the demands of life, a retreat from the fray, so that new artworks have a chance to be born. Artist Daniel Buren has called the studio the first frame of the work, and likened it to the filter artists put their work through before letting it loose into the world.
However, some artists have found the traditional studio, with its marginal position divorced from daily life, a disconnected and false context for creativity. Instead, they operate out-of-doors, literally, with their studios being fields upon which they plant their plein air easels, city streets where they walk and interact in dynamic give-and-take fashion, and site-specific spaces that serve as both context of origin and public display. As Robert Storr has noted, The bottom line is that artists work where they can and how they can.
Manifest invites artists and designers of any media to submit works that explore, depict, challenge and interpret this first frame of creativity:
the context from which art is made. Whether that originating zone is a traditional studio, an open field, a social atmosphere, or a computer screen we invite artists to show us where it all starts.

Deadline: 01, October 2010
Call for project proposals: The Future of 'Public' in Public Transport
The organisers, the Neue Gesellschaft fuer Bildende Kunst (NGBK) in Berlin, are looking for situation specific and/or participatory ideas, visions, experiments and interventions which address the future meaning of 'public' in Berlin's public Underground Network. They can range from being short, interventionistic artistic reactions to specific occurrences on the Underground to being long term collaborations aimed at creating sustainable relationships to Underground staff and/or users over a number of years. A total budget of 30.000 Euro for artist's fees, production, travel and accommodation is available for a maximum of four projects to be realised from May to December 2011. Deadline for applications is 01. October 2010.
Eligibility
Artists or collaborative groups of artists and non-artists are invited to take part in this call for submissions. Preference will be given to artists who see their work as a means of exchange and shared dialogue and who are interested in reaching new audiences. This may include a readiness to collaborate with, for example, groups of BVG staff or passengers who have little experience of contemporary art. The organisors cannot take part in the call themselves.
U10 - from here to the imaginary and back again is an NGBK Berlin project, initiated and run by Sofia Bempeza, Ania Corcilius, Jacopo Gallico, Eva Hertzsch and Adam Page.
