NYC4PA - THE HUMAN BODY

Lately there has been much focus on human body, in all aspects of our life, from the spiritual to the everyday.  What can you show in public, what can’t you show? How do we decorate our body, from tattoos to nail polish?  Should we fix a nose, a large tummy, and do we want to pierce our noses, ears, lips, navels?  How long should we let our hair grow?

For this call the focus is on bodies – from head to toe, in and out of focus, as a well-lit image or silhouette, dressed or undressed. 

Please no sexually explicit images; nudes are just fine.

As with all calls, all 2D photographic art is accepted.

Open call for video works - Common(ing) Thread

First Cut (The Hague, NL) and The New Flesh (London, UK) have joined forces to curate an online screening series: ‘Common(ing) Thread’.

We have found a common ground in facilitating new questions surrounding the intersections between body, costume and society. We believe that subversive costume can expose and challenge the conventions of body politics. How is the (costumed) body recognised, understood and regulated?

We call for experimental video works from artists based in the UK or the Netherlands that engage with the politics of costume, or how costuming practices can be read as a political act. Artists will be paired and invited to engage in a dialogue with one another that will be published alongside the screenings.

Luminous Bodies

Luminous Bodies is a two-week residency to create artworks that shed new light on the human body. Its objective is to challenge “normativity” and Otherness. Its goal is to reinvent and re-present the body in most inclusive and diverse ways.

Resident artist talks, gallery tours, visual and textual references, guest artist talks, and regular critiques (individual with Facilitator and group critiques) help uncover how our bodies are culturally and aesthetically constructed, displayed and controlled.
