residency
Artists in residence in Cittadellarte
UNIDEE in Residence runs for four months - from June to October - to explore the rapport between art and society and to investigate methodologies of creative interventions able to activate projects for a socially responsible change in society.
Unidee in residence forms a new professional skill: that of “activator” of projects for a Responsible Transformation of Society, which reunites the characteristics and skills of the artist, curator, cultural enterpreneur and social-projects manager.
At Cittadellarte the residents acquire a professional creative dimension that is productive and socially relevant, capable of responsibly confronting the problematics of real society and that offers innovative proposals to companies and administrations in different contexts.
http://www.cittadellarte.it/attivita.php?att=27#sub
UNIDEE – University of Ideas is Cittadellarte's international pole of formation and exchange between knowledge and diverse problematics, open to a varied and multidisciplined group of creatives, professional people and students.
Here art abandons the conventional canons and instead places itself to integrate with society and with other disciplines: communication, production, economics, politic, architecture, design, literature, music, spirituality, ecology and nourishment.

The HIVE / an adaptive arena for artistic projects
•Application Deadline
01.01.2013
"The Hive"- Narrative
Artists today are working in a new capacity--one that challenges the definition of art itself by introducing new ways for art to become a part of everyday life. Instead of making work in the context of exhibitions and objects for display, artists are focusing on the processes of collaboration and reciprocity with a goal of generating engagement through experiences, interactions or services.
“The Hive” explores this new arena by inviting artists to use the gallery as a lab rather than as an exhibition venue. Selected artists and creators will explore the outer reaches of art by creatively connecting with different audiences, and creating projects that concretely engage viewers in communication and interaction.
“The Hive” is a metaphor for the interconnected world that we live in today: a hive’s structure depends on the web of relationships that sustain it. These relationships ultimately exemplify collaboration in the working process...
The Hive is the next phase of EFA Project Space's former Artist/Organizer series.
EFA Project Space, a program of the Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts is a collaborative cross-disciplinary arts venue founded on the belief that art is directly connected to the individuals that produce it, to the communities they are a part of, and to contemporary life and that by providing an arena for exploring these connections, we empower artists to forge new partnerships and encourage the expansion of ideas.
A Blade of Grass is a New York City-based non-profit that supports artists and organizations who innovate beyond the gallery and engage communities, and creates interdisciplinary programming to foster broader, more inclusive contemporary art dialogue.

Internet Memes and Visual Culture
•Application Deadline
15.01.2013
This special issue of the Journal of Visual Culture will organize a conversation among cultural scholars, artists, activists, journalists and Internet content producers regarding the social, historical, and aesthetic significance of Internet memes. Our move to “take memes seriously” as communicative and aesthetic objects is especially timely, as memes' linguistic tropes, visual styles and means of transmission gain increasing visibility beyond their origins in online subcultural spaces such as 4chan or 9gag.
Potential contributors are thus encouraged to incorporate visual and conceptual experiments intended to elucidate the meme form, performatively and materially replicating the phenomenon under study.
The deadline for submission of proposals/abstracts is 15 January 2013.
For the submission guidelines, please check :
http://www.lainenooney.com/1/post/2012/11/memesvisualculture.html
The term "meme", a portmanteau of mimesis and gene, was minted in 1976 by British ethologist and evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins. Dawkins proposed the meme as a “unit of cultural transmission,” a self-perpetuating cultural phenomenon analogous to the gene as a replicator of biological data.
The designation “meme” identifies digital objects that riff on a given visual, textual or auditory form. For a digital object to become a meme, it must be appropriated, re-coded, and slotted back into the Internet infrastructures it came from—memes require continued user adaptation. Thus, memes are co-constitutive with the user practices of creative (re)production that are default modes of communicative interaction on major social media platforms such as Facebook, Tumblr, Reddit, Twitter, Pinterest, and YouTube.

Call for Papers: Rare Books and Manuscripts Section & Art Libraries Section
•Application Deadline
18.01.2013
The papers may:
describe new discovery tools or methods
demonstrate innovative ways of managing large visual collections
highlight new areas of research that have resulted from analyzing and using images in innovative ways
Aims of the Session: The session should explore various innovative tools and methods designed to help researchers find and use images that are hidden in books and large cultural heritage collections.
Format: The Open Session will last for three hours. Speakers are restricted to 20 minutes. Afterwards there will be time for questions and comments from the audience. All seven official IFLA languages are admitted for the presentations (Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Russian and Spanish). Papers in English are preferred because no simultaneous translation is planned for this session.
http://conference.ifla.org/ifla79/calls-for-papers/images-lost-and-found-innovative-approaches-to-discovery-and-use-of-visual-m
Rare books, manuscripts, and special collections contain millions of images that remain largely 'hidden' to researchers because they are not catalogued individually. These include woodcuts, illuminations, emblems, drawings, sketches, paintings, and photographs, all of which are critical to a wide range of research in the humanities. In fact, many researchers focus solely on these images, and not on the texts that contain them. A similar problem exists with large image collections found in a library's special collections, because they are too massive to be catalogued individually. These, too, are difficult to find and use.

The show will focus on the nebulous space between surface and

states. Ranging from the clear, white through the dimly to the
shadowy, they can intersect, interfere with each other, be mutually
dependent or cancel each other out. “Not all milk is the same” and it

Toolkit Festival Venice call for entries
•Application Deadline
21.01.2013
The participation is free and open to artists of every nationality of age between 20 and 35 years old. The deadline for the subscription is January 21st 2013. As previously stated, only works that explore and realize – with the contribution of technology – the theme of the interaction between artist, exhibition space and observer will be admitted to the contest. We will therefore accept only interactive interventions such as: Installations, Audio/Visual Performance and Live Media.
Further information about the application :
http://www.toolkitfestival.com/call-for-submissions-2/
The title for the edition of Toolkit Festival 2013 is “Contemplative Pathways” ; to give a global point of view, to show a vision of what occurs in the same time as performer and observer in the interactive area. To show the public an action, often uninhibited within the opera, to bring back its vision, lost in the perfomative act. The observer is invited to create with his own presence , to inhibit his view on the comprehension of singular elements. Often the artist finds himself becoming the observer in front of the fulfillment of the opera. The inquiry we ask to explore is to keep in consideration all these landscapes, re-elaborating a further stage of the space “in execution” to create once again an image, a kind of observer of itself.

Natürlich mit Einführung und Hilfestellung bei den Belichtungszeiten.Entwickeln der Bilder und vergleichen der Resultate. Im Labor werden die ersten Ergebnisse zusammen entwickelt.
Die Camera Obscura, die „dunkle Kammer“ ist die Urform der heutigen Fotokameras. Die erste Beschreibung einer Camera Obscura als Hilfsmittel für einen Zeichner liefert Giovanni Battista della Porta in seinem Buch „Magia Naturalis“ im Jahr 1558. Der dunkle Raum, in dem die Bilder eingefangen werden, diente den Landschafts- und Portraitmalern seiner Zeit als Vorlage.

An International Competitive Exhibit of Works of New Media
Art and Science are intertwined throughout history. New media in art arise from a variety of places– sometimes the artist's lab, sometimes the scientist's and engineer's, and other times from someplace completely unexpected. Inevitably this is driven by curiosity, a need for new means of expressing complex ideas, and often enough the simple desire to create something novel. As part of its ongoing effort to survey various approaches to art making, expression, and creative discovery Manifest offers CODE D. as an invitation to artists to share works of New Media. We have no predetermined expectations for what constitutes 'new' media. While the title of the project plays off the concept of 'digital', that is by no means the defining parameter for works to be considered. Works submitted to this peer-juried exhibit may be of any media, style, or genre, and may represent New Media in any number of widely interpreted ways.

be an influential part of the creative process and act as an opportunity for these ideas to grow. For this reason, these gatherings of creative minds will be benefitial for all.
Selected submissions will be presented at Reverse Space on Wednesday February 13, 20 and 27 at 7:30 pm
HOW TO PARTICIPATE
