About the Open Call

CIRCA art actuel is an artist-run centre that supports experimentation and innovation. Its mission is to showcase the work of contemporary artists of all generations who place sculptural objects at the heart of their practice. The Centre supports projects that are in line with both traditional sculptural practice and those that develop hybrid sculptural and installation forms, arising from contact with other media such as drawing, printmaking, photography, digital media, and painting.

What is Offered

Artists receive the CARFAC fee in effect for the year of the exhibition; Curators receive $1,000 for their project.

Requirements

Artists: Updated CV, statement (300 words), project proposal (400 words), 15 images of recent work with descriptions, Vimeo links for video. Curators: Curator CV, artists' CVs, curatorial project proposal, artists' statements, 3-4 images per artist.
