APPLICATION & GUIDELINES:
R&D: R&D APPLICATION & GUIDELINES
SWAP: SWAP APPLICATION & GUIDELINES

SPACES is announcing an open call for the R&D and SWAP programs.
Through both programs, SPACES encourages proposals that seek to leverage the assets of Cleveland and Northeast Ohio, including display and engagement opportunities within the public realm.

R&D
Application and images for R&D should be emailed to submissions@spacesgallery.org.

SPACES is exploring the concept of Migration during its 2017 R&D season in order to bridge different artistic disciplines through a holistic framework, connect various projects across multiple platforms, and encourage an investigative examination of timely issues.

This open call requests that artists respond to Migration with proposals that explore the theme for its multiple dimensions, including but not limited to: the movement of humans and other species, goods, and genetic material; marginalization; dematerialization; and the causes of migration.

We are especially interested in projects that expand conventional notions of Migration while offering new insight into contemporary art and exhibition-making. We encourage projects that leverage the assets of Cleveland and Northeast Ohio, including display opportunities within the public realm.For some inspiration on the theme of Migration, listen to a recent episode of On the Media, Refugees or Migrants?

What is R&D?
R&D (Research & Development) invites artists, curators and other cultural producers to articulate their investigation of ideas through a supported exhibition or project that may take the form of group, solo, or collaborative endeavors.

R&D Open Call Eligibility
This call-for-entries is open to all established or emerging artists, curators and cultural producers who are 21 years old or older. Applications must show a response to the theme of Migration, a strong conceptual grounding, and a willingness to delve into research and then develop that research into projects.
