Call: video art sought on the theme of "Aberrations"

Call for submissions - Main Film in partnership with Avatar


Aberrations. There are many concrete and abstract meanings associated with
this word. What does an aberration look like? Sound like? We are inviting
artists to explore the concept / possibilty of aberrations – to question
notions of reality / normality / morality – and create a one minute
aberration of their own. Artist and exhibition fees will be paid. Artists
will retain all creative control and copyright over their works. All
finished pieces for the installation Aberrations become the property of Main
Film for the expressed purpose of exhibition(s) and the publicity for the
exhibition(s). All finished works for image and sound must be exactly one
minute in length and finished in a digital format. Open to artists in all
regions of Canada and Québec. Applicants must be a Canadian citizen or
landed immigrant. Applicants must be ‘mid-career’ or ‘established’ in their
art practice. (Please refer to the Canada Council website for the definition
of Mid-career artists and Established artists.)


DEADLINE: August 31, 2007
