Call for Artist Projects for 30th Anniversary Issue of FUSE Magazine


--Please circulate widely--

FUSE magazine is pleased to announce an open call for artist projects to
be included in our 30th anniversary issue, on newsstands Fall 2007.

Our 30th anniversary issue is devoted to assessing the state of our
present, those intersections that we feel are critically in need of
address at this moment in history--indigeneity, occupation and settler
states; security and war; status and migration; the politics of identity;
the workings of institutions; and social and economic precarity. The issue
will consist of a series of conversations about these themes amongst
artists, activists, community organizers and academics internationally and
from across the country.

We are soliciting artists to create work in any medium that would be
suitable for reproduction as a poster and that speaks to one or multiple
themes listed above. Artist projects will be printed and displayed at the
launch event in October, 2007. Limited edition posters will be printed of
each artist project to be sold by FUSE as part of our fundraising drive,
with 50 copies delivered to the artist along with an artist fee of $150.

Technical information: Each poster will be printed at 11 inches wide x 17
inches high. Artists whose submissions are approved will be asked to
supply files as press-ready pdf files for a 4/0 colour printing process.
100 lb paper stock will be used with matte text and a varnish finish.

Submissions Guidelines: Poster submissions should be completed or nearly
completed and address one of key areas mentioned above (indigeneity,
occupation and settler states; security and war; status and migration; the
politics of identity; the workings of institutions; and social and
economic precarity).

By Canada Post:
