CONFAB 2025 Call for Artists

⁣We invite artists working in all mediums to submit work for CONFAB, an exhibition that transforms personal expression into a communal conversation. CONFAB, derived from "confabulation," speaks to the act of deep conversation, a dialogue where ideas are freely exchanged and connections are made. Through diverse techniques and themes, this exhibition explores how art confronts, reveals, and reimagines contemporary challenges, inviting viewers into a shared space of awareness, empathy, and possibility.

Rewild: conservation ecology for artists

Rewild is a ten day webinar for artists to learn about practical wildlife conservation and habitat restoration directly from research biologists. The program offers daily video lectures and chats with ten international conservationists and research ecologists engaged in a range of rewilding initiatives. Guest scientists will describe conservation efforts from the very local to the global, defining a broad range of strategies and attitudes to the wild.

Warehouse Art School

Established in 2013 this successful and innovative one day per week course has been created to fill an ever-increasing need for artists to further their practice outside of formal education. The Warehouse Art School (WAS) is a non-accredited course run by artists for artists and offers an affordable alternative to formal Higher Education courses.

WAS provides a stimulating environment where students are encouraged to take risks in their work and are supported in their continuing professional development through a programme of critical and practical teaching, delivered through tutorials, projects, workshops, collaboration, networking and talks.

DL 20.7 - Working Precariously Zine

Hello!

I am working on a masters thesis investigating alternative ways of confronting precarious positions in the art, culture, and creative industries. I am looking at ways and methods art education can improve internships/traineeships, low paid labor in the art, cultural, and creative industries for both the people conducting the labor and the people receiving the labor (organizations).

Please note, this open call is searching for text and visual contributors who have experience in the Nordics (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Iceland, as well as the Faroe Islands, Greenland, and Åland). E.g. have conducted work in the Nordics (you do not need to be from or currently based in the Nordics).
