Metrospace announces a call-for-proposals for an upcoming exhibit of
artwork which has traveled by post.
Mail art is art which uses
the postal system as a medium. Mail artists typically exchange artistic
works in any medium, including but not limited to: painting, drawing,
collage, graphic design, sculpture, assemblage, video- or audio-based
works, conceptual works, and installations. (SCENE) presents an
in-depth investigation into this artform, which evolved between the
1950s and the 1990s, and was influenced by such art movements as Dada
and Fluxus. The size and scope of each artwork depends on the artist.
For (SCENE)’s exhibit, the following definitions of Mail Art will be observed:
1.
v. Like a message in a bottle mediated by the sea, so mail art switches
hands and is thus transformed. 2. n. The last object touched by one’s
self, representing one’s self for another to hold. 3. n. An artwork
that considers the journey as much as the destination.
Artists of all types are invited to submit current, original works for this exhibit. The exhibit will take place from January 11, 2008 through February 24, 2008. All entry materials are due Friday, December 14, 2007, in order to be considered for exhibit. Early submissions are encouraged. Actual works must be received no later than Friday, January 4, 2008.

| | | Eminent Domain | Appropriation in Creative Practice- Oliver Luker [ 9/16/2007 - 09:15 ] #  | ||
| | ||
| Dispatx Art
Collective | Curatorial Platform | | | | ||
| Eminent Domain examines notions of blockage, recourse and resistance
that can emerge in diverse contexts – and what it can mean when these
manifestations are channelled into artistic product. The seventh collection of Dispatx Art Collective includes works
developed by visual artists, musicians, writers, dancers and
performance artists. The collection, which can be seen in Show, includes works developed online as part of the site
as well as submissions of completed work related to the theme. In
addition, and as a part of an ongoing investigation of curatorial
practice, the Eminent Domain forum will remain open throughout the
duration of this collection. The curatorial narrative is best articulated through a correspondance
between various readings. While projects such as Hospital 106 4º1ª by
Jordi Canudas and Isabel Banal and Someone Called Me... by Emma Wilcox
are the works which most directly address the theme at hand, projects
such as Green Screen by Neil Chapman and David Stent, or Ellen Zweig’s
My Language Overwhelms Her Text, use literary fiction to generate
multiple attempts and points of inflection. We are also pleased to announce the start of exploration of works
related to the theme Appropriation in Creative Practice, which can be
followed over the coming six months in Make. These
pieces, including works by Sandra Gamarra, Scott MacLeod, Åsa Ståhl and
Adad Hannah, also include among them the projects funded through our
inaugural commissions program. The completed collection will be
published in March 2008. We are open for submissions of completed work until the 26th of January 2008. For more information: dispatx.com/submissions/ | | | About Dispatx | | | Dispatx Art Collective is the leading curatorial platform for the
development and presentation of contemporary art and literature. Make
is a showcase for work in progress related to the current theme,
Appropriation in Creative Practice. Projects are developed online via
integrated documentation tools allowing artists to post regular updates
to their work in a continuous investigation of the creative method. | | | This work is

 hello friends, artists in antwerp are losing room to move every day, please share your wisdom and dreams at www.musicbox2007.tkDear friend of de muziekdoos The first 'tmuziekdooscollectief meeting was a success, there was music, brainstorming, wine... onboard were Frank, Jef, Jan, Inneke23, Stafke, Wim and Karo, Hans and Lieve. also a quick cameo by Etienne Thanks to all for showing up! This is what we came up with after several bottles of wine and lots of gracious sounds: The general idea •
Keep the muziekdoos spirit alive – a place where there are instruments,
amps, where everyone can come and play/jam/rehearse/experiment and
maybe most importantly, meet likeminded people. • Convince people of
the importance of this muziekdoos-spirit if we want to keep real honest
music alive. A place-to-be for musicians, poëts and other creative
minds and friends. Cross pollination at its best. How? • MySpace
will be used to promote our ideas, announce upcoming events, find
contacts and supporters, post pictures, movies, art, poetry, etc • A
mobile acoustic setup is a temporary solution to keep this spirit
alive. This setup could move to different locations and ideally,
Etienne could be there too to play his wonderful tunes, serve the
drinks and give usefull/useless comments on the live music : ) If the
weather is fine, this location can be outdoors (we allready baptised
the boarders of the scheldt at the sint-michielsstraat) • Organize
larger events (mini festivals) on different locations where bands can
perform and a free podium is available. Get festival promotors/sponsors
involved. • Make a presentation that clearly outlines our plan and try to involve the culture department of Antwerp. • Search a VZW that wants to be involved in organising events for us. (Creating a VZW ourselves is not a good plan). Money! • We also will continue to collect money with the mobiele muziekdoos to help Etienne to pay the state. This about rounds up what was discussed and what 'tmuziekdooscollectief stands for. Cheers! spring is in the air

| We're pleased to announce the publication of the sixth edition of Dispatx, which coincides with a complete redesign of the website. Curating and developing works from poets, photographers, painters and writers, for this edition we once again present an extremely diverse set of responses to the notion of Improvised Maps. These works in Show include a dozen projects developed online over the last five months and seven additional submissions including work from Gonzalo Puch, Denis Masi, Andrea Brady and Daniel Canogar. In addition the exploration of the theme Eminent Domain can now be followed on a daily basis. Until June 2007, the Make area of the site will feature the work of seventeen projects chosen to explore the theme. These include works by Emanuel Licha, Juan delGado, and Paulina Varas. The Studio, an integrated set of documentation tools, allows the artists to post regular updates to their work in a continuous investigation of the creative method - the organisational process that translates creative vision to creative product. Through making comments on the artists' process in Make, site visitors form a part of this organic process. We have provided a set of tools allowing you to create private collections, leave comments, and subscribe to RSS feeds for the projects that interest you the most. To familiarize yourself with these changes, please take the site tour. | | | About Dispatx | | | Dispatx provides the tools of a socialised internet for the development and presentation of contemporary art and literature.

Busby, owner of Lansing's Creole Gallery. It was a sickening shock to
hear of his death yesterday. Robert's gentle presence and defining role
in re-shaping the Old Town neighborhood into an arts destination will
never be
forgotten. In a tangible way, Old Town itself is a physical
manifestation of Robert's spirit, which was too big to be contained in
a single person. His vision for Old Town and all of the arts was
contagious, and he inspired others to be leaders. Our feelings
stretch out to his family, friends, and all the
people whose lives he enriched.
If we can make even half of the impact you made on art and on the
community, we will feel we have done a good job. We miss you Robert.

Contemporary Arts
Museum Houston, USADates: On View Through January 14,
2007
http://www.camh.or
Contemporary Arts Museum Houston presents
first U.S. survey exhibition for Swiss video artist Pipilotti
Rist 
HOUSTON, Texas – This fall, the Contemporary Arts
Museum Houston presents Wishing for Synchronicity: Works by Pipilotti
Rist, the first comprehensive U.S. survey of the seminal work of the Swiss
video artist. Organized by curator Paola Morsiani, the project brings
together Rist’s most significant work from the mid-1980s to the present.
Wishing for Synchronicity: Works by Pipilotti Rist is on view through
January 14, 2007, touring nationally following its Houston
presentation.
“Pipilotti Rist is a tremendously innovative and
distinctly personal voice in contemporary art. As a master of her chosen
media, she uses her large and small projections to place the viewer within
her world, provoking the contemplation of broad issues through her
individual actions,” said Contemporary Arts Museum Houston Director Marti
Mayo. “We are proud to have organized her first survey exhibition in the
U.S. for our diverse regional, national and international audiences,
thereby continuing the Museum’s almost 60-year tradition of presenting the
best and most exciting art of our time.”
Wishing for Synchronicity: Works by Pipilotti
Rist includes eight of Rist’s early single-channel videos, six large
projections, and three additional works. The exhibition features a
selection of significant works spanning her career, such as I’m Not the
Girl Who Misses Much (1986) and Sip My Ocean (1996), in which pleasurable
images and music quickly become metaphors for hysteria and suffocation,
and Ever is Overall (1997), in which the camera follows a female walking
through city streets, smashing car windows with an iron flower as she
meanders.
“Through her use of video, Rist combines the worlds of
art history and mass culture to create her own visual language,” said
exhibition curator Paola Morsiani. “She uses this convergence to
intelligently explore the power of our mind and its connection to the body
as well as the pervasiveness of our sexual experience and its link to our
mortality; and she expresses her profound empathy and hope for the times
in which we live.”
Rist recently accepted a prestigious commission to
create the visual identity for The Armory Show 2007, The International
Fair of New Art, to be held next February in New York City.
Rist was born in 1962 in Switzerland, and studied at
the Academy of Applied Arts in Vienna, Austria and the School for Design
in Basel, Switzerland. Her work has been shown at the Venice Biennale; the
San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art,
Tokyo; the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; and the Museum of
Contemporary Art, Chicago. She lives and works in Zurich,
Switzerland.

| | | Eminent Domain | Call for Proposals- Oliver Luker [ 10/2/2006 - 11:17 ] #  In old English law, eminent domain refers to the power of the state to take private property without the owner’s consent. Since the mid-19th century it has been employed as part of large-scale development projects and urban renewal – controversial practices that can be extremely destructive for local communities. The policy is often implemented when there is a perceived obstruction blocking the progress of a particular project and powers of override must force its conclusion. In investigating this theme we call for artists to recast the concept of eminent domain in the context of creative work. Here it becomes similar to recourse – in the face of blockade, alternative and often radical tactics may be resorted to in order for an idea to move forward. At a point of critical mass existing systems begin to fail, invoking a form of negation and opening up a space of uncertainty. This uncertainty may force a radical reformulation of a work at a crucial moment of its incompletion and potential. The concept of regeneration is helpful in investigating this theme with regard to process revision and its relation to the creative method. Literally beginning again, regeneration suggests a recursive, self-referential procedure. It also indicates different approaches to revision: on one hand there can be subtle, incremental modifications of existing structures, systematically inching toward a result. On the other there can be a Kuhnian paradigm shift – a more radical action that can demand a clean slate from which to begin from scratch. The interplay of these strategies and the conditions that formulate them are fascinating areas of exploration. To what extent are points of resistance and conflict essential for shaping creative decisions? Are great ideas born of frustration or along paths of least resistance? What kind of space does this recourse open up? In this context, the theme of eminent domain speaks not only to literal interpretations concerning revised landscapes, power relationships and innovation from decay, but also to a broader theoretical reading about the space opened up by an enforced change of approach. The use of these concepts, either as the subject of investigation or as a guide to process and methodology, will result in a fascinatingly diverse group of projects for the next edition of Dispatx. For more information on how to submit, please click here. Dates : Final date for sending project proposals : 16 December 2006 Publication of collaborative project proposals : 15 January 2007 Details : Dispatx (www.dispatx.com) provides the tools of a socialised internet for the development, organisation and presentation of contemporary art and literature.

When Ben and I were in Mexico City recently, we saw an exhibit at the Rufino Tamayo Museum that just blew my mind! This artist, whose name is I believe Santiago Ortiz, uses sound and images, put together through what seem to my simple mind very mathematical processes, to bring you hours of fun! These are all digital interactive "sound and energy" pieces that are part of a larger collection of interactive computer pieces. Who could pass up something with a name like "music over fractal land" and "sound sticky elastica structure?" Wish I could explian it all better, but maybe someone else, who understands the mechanics of it all can add on a little tidbit of information for those of us whose last computer class was before e-mail even came about...

| Dispatx Art Collective : New Theme for Exploration- Oliver Luker [ 12/18/2005 - 07:33 ] # 
Dispatx Art Collective is calling for collaborative project proposals and submissions based on the current theme in exploration : The Plague of Language The theme is underpinned by countless interconnected forms of communication, drawing on the rich history of human
utterance and phonology: its consideration suggests a simultaneous reassessment of how we define language and
semantics, and highlights an inherent philosophical discourse concerning how we can think about thought, or use
language to explore language. We are looking for collaborators to consider working
with us as a part of our 'Work in Progress' area - demonstrating the
process that translates creative vision into artistic output - as well
as submissions of finished work aligned to the theme. For more information, submission guidelines and schedule details, please visit www.dispatx.com To contact us directly, please email submissions@dispatx.com
