<nettime> posting - call for videos |
Hello, My name is Natalie McKeever, I am a video artist and just joined the nettime list. I wanted to post an open call for video art that I am curating for the Jersey City Museum. The posting is below. Thanks! Natalie McKeever *Investigations of Place Jersey City Museum's 1x1 Media Series Natalie McKeever, Guest Curator* Author and theorist Lucy Lippard defines "place" as "space plus memory." Separate from landscape art, investigations of place explore how the landscapes of personal places such as homelands, childhood homes, and ancestral spaces take on new forms when combined with memories and individual experiences. Jersey City Museum is asking for submissions that successfully use video to illustrate personal narratives imprinted on landscapes, and landscapes imprinted on personal narratives, videos that use experimental imagery to explore how spaces are remade once they are remaining in the mind, and videos that strive to define and delve into the concept ofplace. Between three and nine videos will be chosen for participation in the Jersey City Museum's Media 1x1 video series. The selected videos will play on three small screens on the first floor of the museum from May - September 2009. Please submit unformatted DVD's, NTSC format only, preferably .MOV, and include a short synopsis of the work and your contact information. Please send entries, postmarked by March 6, 2009, to: *Investigations of Place Open Call Jersey City Museum P.O. Box 428 Jersey City, NJ 07303-0428* DVD's can not be returned, so please do not send your only copy.
