ASPECT Open Call Performance

https://www.neme.org/blog/aspect-open-call-performance

ASPECT is currently welcoming submissions for our ninth volume, Performance. This issue will focus on the broad spectrum of performance art-from the most traditional interpretations to those integrating advanced technologies, inanimate objects, passersby, sites, and beyond.

All submissions must include the following, and must be postmarked by September 30, 2006.

• Video in DVD, VHS or miniDV format.
• Artist’s name and resume
• Artist and Commentator contact information (phone, mailing address, and e-mail)
• Commentator’s name and resume
• Brief notes outlining the contents of the proposed commentary
• A self-addressed stamped envelope if materials need to be returned

Commentators can be curators, critics, theorists, educators, or other individuals with a broad understanding of the artist’s work and the greater art historical context. An artist cannot supply his or her own commentary. The video should be between 5-12 minutes in length.

You will be contacted by November 1 if your piece is selected. At that point, the following additional information will be needed:

• Your video on miniDV tape or as uncompressed Quicktime data file on dvd
• A short (approx. 100 words) biography of the artist
• A short (approx. 100 words) statement about the work
• A photograph of the artist
• A short (approx. 100 words) commentator’s biography
• A photograph of the commentator
