Call for Art and Essays: WCA's China project
The International Caucus of the Women's Caucus for Art is so very fortunate to offer Half the Sky: Intersections in Social Practice Art. This
is an unprecedented, art-based cultural exchange for BOTH women
artists and essayists in the US to exhibit and share their work with
women artists in China at LuXun Academy of Fine Arts in Shenyang.
Luxun Academy is one of the premier art academies in China.
Exhibition Dates: April 15-30, 2014
Venue: LuXun Academy of Fine Arts, Shenyang, China
Eligibility: Open to all self-identified women in the US and both international and national WCA members
Facebook page: Half the Sky: Intersections in Social Practice Art
Call for Art We are encouraging all media, especially new media and social practice art documentation. Deadline October 6, 2013
Call for Essays We are pleased to be able to include writers, professors and historians in this project. Deadline October 13, 2014
A small working delegation of WCA members will go
to LuXun Academy to build community, enhance mutual understanding,
share our artistic perspectives and techniques through art-based events
that this delegation will lead. More information at http://wcainternationalcaucus.weebly.com/half-the-sky-2014shenyang-china.html
Theme/Background for Call for Art
Almost
a half-century ago, Chairman Mao Zedong, who famously said "Women hold
up half the sky," believed women's active participation in reform
would solve China's economic and societal challenges. More recently,
women and men leaders across the world are calling for women's voices
to be heard in all decision making. The theme is now a movement, a
documentary, a musical recording. Michelle Bachelet, head of UN Women,
opened the UN Commission on the Status of Women 2013 conference by
extolling the benefits of being 53% of the world's population. "Women
do not need permission, they simply need to speak and act."
Artists
are encouraged to interpret this theme broadly. What does it mean to
be the majority of the world's population? What must women do to hold
up their "half"? How do women from different cultures interpret this
responsibility, this call to action? How do we encourage and support
each other through art?
Theme/Background for Call for Essays
LuXun
Academy has asked us to have an essay component to the catalog related
to the topic of Contemporary Art Practices of Women in the US. Are
there any remaining and defining boundaries to women's art practices
and how does this relate to a definition of art as a whole? Are there
still niches of art practice particular to a woman's perspective? What
are the roots of Social Practice Art in relation to women's art
history? How are Social Practice Art academic programs shaping the work
of women artists? This art-based cultural exchange project with its
opportunities for building community and common understanding,
collaborative art creation, and dialogue is, in itself, a piece of
Social Practice Art. How are such works critiqued? How do we put Social
Practice works in context with other art forms? Which women artists in
the United States are creating excitement in today's art marketplace
and/or influencing art practices?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"Eye on the D: Seeing Detroit with New Eyes"
This show focuses on the rich multi-textured character of the
city of Detroit in the midst of radical change. Whether it's the
current physical landscape, evolving neighborhoods or political makeup,
show us evidence of a re-imagined terrain. What is the next chapter in
the story of this quintessential American city, or what whispers not
to be forgotten? Detroit's historic artistic achievements are
monumental - the architecture of Albert Kahn and Eliel Saarinen, the
auto industry's design revolution, the public murals of Diego Rivera
and the intensely personal work of Frida Kahlo, the music of Motown and
Hip Hop. Recent creative momentum has given voice to a new vision of the city in this post-Fordian post-modern era and gained national and international attention. How do you see the city of the future, the city in your imagination, what inspires you about Detroit?
Last year the Michigan Chapter
of the Women's Caucus for Art gave a Detroit Art Tour for attendees of
the National WCA Summer Board Meeting. Response was so great that the
Michigan Chapter organized this exhibition to instigate a national
response to our city, and to hear from artists from around Michigan and
especially from Detroit about how they see this time of crisis and
regeneration.
Eligibility: All self-defined women artists nation wide may submit up to 3 works of any medium including video and performance.
The
exhibition will take place at 555 Gallery, Detroit, from November 1 -
21, 2013. Sponsored by the Women's Caucus for Art, Michigan.

Hanging system has been installed throughout our hallways and we look forward to showcasing the work of a wide variety of talented area artists for two months at a time. Each participating artist will have the opportunity to hang up to three pieces in our gorgeous light-filled building and the work will remain up for two First Friday gallery openings that CAN hosts along with the Washington School of Photography in our amazing new 27,000 square foot building on Wilkins Avenue in Rockville.
Artists and their guests are invited to
the two First Friday openings during the run of their show to visit and
enjoy the "Halls" show along with the current show in the 1100 square
foot gallery, and the chance to see our 31 resident artists' studios.
Work will be hung on a first come-first served basis, so early birds will indeed snag the best placement spots in our building.
