CALL FOR ARTISTS | Artist, Mother, Proud & Serious VOL II

Women United ART MOVEMENT, a global platform advocating for gender equality in the art world, is excited to announce a new call for artists for VOL II of the annual publication ARTIST, MOTHER, PROUD & SERIOUS!

 

Artist, Mother, Proud & Serious is a labour of love. It is a tribute to women who often find themselves on the edge of the art world because they don’t fit the stereotype of what “a professional artist” should look like. They often feel like having to justify their passion for the arts and their time in the studio.

 

Historically, a female artist who is also a mother, has not been considered an art book material. That is, until we came along and pushed the boundaries with our 400-page VOL I. We see you!

 

OPEN CALL - FORECAST MENTORSHIPS

Forecast has announced the six new mentors and its call for project ideas for the ninth edition of Forecast Mentorships.

Artistic practitioners and cultural producers working in all creative fields, anywhere in the world, are encouraged to apply to Forecast’s international mentorship program with projects that could benefit from the expertise of one of this edition’s mentors and their unique approach to material and knowledge production.

Send us your project ideas for the chance to work with one of the following mentors: Choreographer Alice Ripoll (BR), designer Fiona Raby (UK), photographer Lieko Shiga (JN), artist Theo Eshetu (UK), documentary filmmaker Tomer Heymann (IL), and composer and performer Ute Wassermann (DE).

Where Flowers Bloom Issue #6

The sixth edition of Where Flowers Bloom focuses on the theme of symbiosis, an apparently simple concept if we consider its instinctive definition linked to the biological world. However, a deeper analysis expands this concept to human relationships, the human-technology relationship and the interconnection with self, nature and space.

The open call is open to all until 19 February 2024. We invite young artists and designers to send us one of their projects, photographs, sculptures, etc.
