Call for Art-WABI-SABI

Art Fluent invites artists worldwide to submit artwork to our online exhibit, WABI-SABI.
JPEGs due by Friday, May 27 at midnight (MST). Over $1,200 in cash prizes. All accepted pieces will be displayed in our online gallery at www.art-fluent.com. Visit https://www.art-fluent.com/wabi-sabi-prospectus for a full prospectus.

WABI-SABI is a Japanese term that refers to that which is impermanent, imperfect, aged, humbled, and unconventional. It is a state of mind and a way of being. It expresses a whole new world of seeing. Perhaps being open to mistakes and accidents will lead us somewhere new, beautiful, and authentic. As artists, we know this all too well. Visually it is the simplicity of composition and exploring the meaning and beauty of everyday objects. Show us WABI-SABI from your perspective.

The Valise Project: Climate Equity Artwork Open Call

ICA San Diego is excited to invite artists from the San Diego/Tijuana region to design our next portable artwork for our arts outreach program, the Valise Project.

Award: $5,000
Deadline for proposals: March 21

https://art.icasandiego.org/climate-equity-valise-project

What is the Valise Project?

The Valise Project is a staple of ICA San Diego’s educational offerings for our San Diego community. The program was inspired by famed modern artist Marcel Duchamp, who designed miniatures of his works and carried them in suitcases to share with others. ICA San Diego (formerly Lux Art Institute) adapted this concept by having contemporary artists create a suitcase and its contents in their distinct artistic style around a specific subject.

The Valise Project provides in-class visits to schools K-12 from across San Diego to learn about contemporary art. ICA San Diego provides students a complete art making experience from seeing, discussing, and touching the art to creating works of their own.

About the Proposal

ICA San Diego is inviting regional artists from San Diego and Tijuana to submit an art proposal to be our next Valise with a focus on themes surrounding Climate Equity.

Climate change is expected to disproportionately affect low-income communities, which are the least responsible for greenhouse gas emissions. Climate policies that are well-designed and implemented at the local, national, and international levels can play an important role in assisting communities and countries in strengthening their capabilities.

We are eager to learn about how you plan to bring your signature artistic practice to life in a hands-on experience that will enrich the lives of children for years to come!

Eligibility

This call is open to artists from the San Diego and Tijuana region, both amateur and professional, whose practice focuses on environmentalism, climate change, climate equity, or mass consumption.

Application needs

– 150 word artist statement.

– 200 words about the proposed project.

– 1 – 5 renderings of the project.

– Website, social media.

– No fee to apply!

The application platform is now open and will close on March 21 at 11:59pm
