*International Call for Artists’ film and video *
*AT HOME IN EUROPE *
ISIS Arts (UK) and it’s international project
partners BEK (Norway), InterSpace (Bulgaria) and
RIXC (Latvia) are curating a new screening
programme around the theme of European Identity
for the Big M, ISIS Art’s inflatable touring space.
Daily, more and more European people decide to
live in other European countries. With a shifting
concept of nationality it becomes increasingly
important to consider what it means to be
European. Is there such a thing as European
Identity and how does it relate to national identity?
For this programme we invite submissions of films
or video works on this theme from artists of any nationality.
Selected works will become part of the new
screening programme which will tour to the four
partnering countries between May 2007 and September 2007.
Work will be selected through open submission. In
order to be considered individual works must:
* Have a running time of 5 minutes or less
* Be single channel and non interactive
* Address the project theme
Selected artists will receive an exhibition fee
of € 300 (The Big M is not a commercial venture
and admission is free). Copyright remains solely with the artist.
The Big M is a highly stylised inflatable
structure that functions as a temporary and
mobile venue for the presentation of video and
digital media. Unique in both design and
function, the Big M provides an alternative to
the conventional gallery setting and exhibits
work by emerging and established artists to diverse audiences.
