Call for Submissions

TACO! invites submissions for artist, short-form, moving-image for Viddy Horrowshow/Daytime Viewing (VHS/DTV). Selected works will be shown on a daily showreel at TACO! , presented as part of a special one-off screening event, and published and distributed as a limited edition DVD.

The slow-moving torrents of primetime, daytime and post-watershed programming have splintered into screens that are so much more intimate, that address us not as some vague, general consumer but as exactly as the consumer that we are, or that we soon will be. You’re in there, your image, and all your friends and acquaintances. Accidental uploads, overshares, and family members’ niche political views mean that the box has been superseded by the bubble.

Call for Proposals for a Public Work of Art  The Button Project 

Bristol Community College and its Holocaust and Genocide Center, located in Fall River, Massachusetts, invite proposals from artists and artist teams for a significant public artwork. This project involves incorporating a collection of 1.5 million buttons, each symbolizing a child murdered during the Holocaust. Artists are encouraged to utilize the entire collection, with preference given to proposals that do so. The project’s central aim is to honor the memory of these children while simultaneously raising awareness about the horrors of the Holocaust, fostering reflection, education, and dialogue within the community.
