Call: VideoPool is seeking submissions for a touring screening
Call for Submissions:
Video Pool is now accepting curatorial proposals for a touring screening
Deadline: October 1, 2007
Video Pool is accepting proposals for a 60 - 90 minute thematic package of
single channel videos. This opportunity is open to
established, emerging or first-time curators in Winnipeg and beyond. All
thematic approaches will be considered, however, special
consideration will be given to projects that present the work of Aboriginal
and culturally diverse artists.
The purpose of the package is to unify artworks with an engaging theme and
to provide theoretical context for Video Pool's media arts
holdings. The package is intended to promote independent media artists
distributed by Video Pool, with a focus on developing
international audiences.
The curator is responsible for selecting the works to be included in the
package, writing a 2000 word contextual essay, overseeing the
design of discursive and promotional materials, the creation of summary
reports and contacting host venues for the tour of the
package. The curator may also choose to travel with the package, dependent
on funding, in order to introduce the package.
The successful curator will work with Video Pool Distribution Department,
reporting on a monthly basis, to coordinate and execute
the tour.
Pending funding approval, the curator will receive a total of $3000 for
creating the package, submitting an essay and arranging the
tour. Video Pool will also support the curator's travel as required.
Proposals will be reviewed by a jury made up of Video Pool Staff,
Board and Producers Group Members.
How to Apply:
All submissions must be received by October 1, 2007 and must include:
A statement of curatorial intent, including how the package will promote the
purchase/rental of Video Pool titles internationally
A proposed list of titles for inclusion in the program
A professional resumé or CV
