"Body and Presence" Juried Exhibition

The City of Santa Clarita (City) is inviting artists to submit artwork for consideration for our upcoming “Body and Presence” juried exhibition, which will be on view at the Canyon Country Community Center during our annual Business for Artists Conference. We are calling for original artwork in any medium that investigates the essence of physicality and existence in the modern world. We are seeking artworks that explore the relationship between the body and its environment, emphasizing the significance of presence and absence. This exhibition aims to delve into themes of identity, corporeality, and the sensory experience, prompting viewers to reflect on their own presence and the impact of their physical form in the space they inhabit.

fluctoplasma is Hamburg's festival for a diverse urban society and is entering its fifth year in 2024: From October 24th to 27th, we invite you to join us in shaping a new edition and celebrating our first anniversary together! This year, our festival is themed "recharge resistance," and we call upon you to engage politically and fight for our shared coexistence!

In a year marked by European elections, important state elections in various German states, as well as racist, antidemocratic master plans, and the gradual erosion of our societal cohesion, a disturbing trend becomes increasingly clear: the rise of right-wing and antidemocratic forces, which are expected to deeply embed themselves in the fabric of our parliamentary democracy and civil society.
