Call for
artists: WHY SELF ? Venice, May 2015 It?s LIQUID International Art
Show Deadline: April 20,
2015
It?s
LIQUID Group, in collaboration with International
ArtExpo, is selecting all interesting photo works, experimental
video-art works, paintings, installations and performance art works to
include in the next 2015
exhibition:
WHY SELF ? Adventures of social
identities, international art exhibition of
photography, video art, installation, painting and performance art, that
will be hosted in Venice, at Palazzo Ca?
Zanardi and Venice Art House, from the
9th to the 30th of May
2015.
WHY SELF ? Adventures of social
identities is the first appointment of the festival
SELF which will be organized in Venice at Palazzo Ca?
Zanardi and Venice Art House, starting from the opening day of
Venice Art Biennale (May 9, 2015), with a rich program of
different events until November 2015. For the first time
in Venice we will give audience the possibility to have private
meetings with artists, to meet them personally and share their
art and experience. Each event will have a strong program of video art
screenings and premiers, art residencies, talks, workshops, live dj set,
live experimental dance and art
performances.
After many years
of research and exhibitions about the evolution of the idea of identity,
we ask artists to share their personal tales through their
artworks; to create a link between their personal experience and
the audience through the artworks exhibited; to tell us their
stories and the reasons beneath their works. More info about
SELF festival: www.itsliquid.com/call-self-venice-2015.html
The festival
SELF is organized and curated by Luca
Curci (director of It?s LIQUID and International ArtExpo) and
Andrea Chinellato (director of Ca? Zanardi and Venice Art
House).
WHY SELF ? Adventures of social
identities will be focused on the analysis of
the identities in relationship with the social context. A
person?s uniqueness is an evolving system which is constantly transformed
by social, cultural, religious, and ethnic circumstances. This continuous
mutation creates new blends, new crossing identities, which are the
results of the society in which they live. Not only the external input,
but all the people we meet, with their own uniqueness, contribute to the
evolution of our
individuality.
During
WHY SELF exhibition, Ca? Zanardi and Venice Art House
will also host the first appointment of the experimental art show
LIQUID ROOMS (May 9-10-11, 2015). More info about
LIQUID ROOMS I: www.itsliquid.com/call-liquid-rooms1-venice.html
