SculptureCenter Calls for Proposals, due 7/1

The In Practice project series supports artists in creating new work for exhibition at SculptureCenter. We invite artists to submit proposals for projects and installations to be presented beginning in January of 2011.

SculptureCenter seeks proposals that offer new ways of considering sculpture or further the understanding of the discipline and how it can intersect with installation, architecture, performance, and other media.

Proposals will be reviewed relative to the following criteria:
1) Quality of proposal and prior work
2) Responsiveness to the site and the specific context of SculptureCenter

The works and exhibitions created through this series include sculptural objects, installations, performances and artworks that operate between all of these disciplines. Past participants in the series include Fia Backström, Drew Heitzler, Rachel Mason, Virginia Overton, Marlo Pascual, Lucy Raven, Karin Schneider, Xaviera Simmons, Agathe Snow, and Josh Smith among many others.

All applications will be submitted electronically via SculptureCenter's website this year. The application, guidelines, FAQ, and downloadable building floorplans and images may be found there. Applying artists are encouraged to visit SculptureCenter during open hours.

The deadline for proposals is July 1, 2010. Applicants will be notified by September 1, 2010. Please contact inpractice@sculpture-center.org with any questions, or visit www.sculpture-center.org for complete information on the exhibitions and events.
