TIME WILL TELL
Public Performance-based Work

Eyelevel Gallery requests submissions for Time Will Tell, a series of five public performance-based works to take place in conjunction with the fourth annual Go North! Studio and Gallery Tour on September 12, 2009.

We are seeking public performance-based work responding to the current context of Halifax’s North End by engaging with the physical environment and social history of this neighbourhood. Local emerging artists, established artists and students are encouraged to apply.

Selected artists will be paid an artist fee of $500 for their project and a $100.00 material fee. Funding for these projects from the HRM was only recently confirmed, so artists are encouraged to propose works that are already in progress or that respond with spontaneity to the short time-frame of this call for submissions.

Deadline for applications: Wednesday September 2, 2009 at 5 PM

Application Guidelines:

Please submit the following as part of your proposal:

1.  A written project description including the concept, script of the performance, intended materials if required, and any other relevant information (no more than 250 words).
Please Note: If there is an installation element to your public performance-based work you must have the site pre-approved by the property manager or landlord as necessary.

2. CV or resume outlining previous art experience
Please Note: If you are a student or emerging artist you may list previous student exhibitions and experience in your CV

3. A short artist bio or artist statement (no more than 150 words)

Please DO NOT send visual support material. Support material WILL NOT be considered as part of the selection process.

Drop off or mail to:

Eyelevel Gallery, 2063 Gottingen Street, B3K 3B2
WE WILL NOT ACCEPT EMAIL PROPOSALS.
