fulltime visiting faculty positions in Photography for September 2005-2006. Our
department has a set of sequential courses as well as a variety of specialty
courses that meet our pedagogical goals in building skills as well as providing
a comprehensive cultural and political understanding of practices in the field.
We are seeking candidates who are flexible, smart, and capable of addressing a
wide range of issues, often beyond their discipline. While these are not
"split" positions between departments, the successful candidates are likely to
have skills in web design, new media, or some other area of expertise as well
as photography.

Candidates must demonstrate technical skills in traditional and digital
photographic mediums and possess an accomplished body of work. They should
demonstrate fluency in contemporary art, theory and practices in photography
based media. They must be able to address the cultural and political roles of
photography in history, mass media, and art contexts. Expert/Advanced digital
skills will be required for one of the positions.

The successful candidates will become part of an active and diverse photography
faculty. As two of eight full and part time faculty members the new positions
are expected to be flexible. The candidates must be able to teach all levels,
from beginners to graduate students. Our flexible curriculum requires faculty
to exchange teaching responsibilities from year to year, and to introduce new
specialty courses. New courses proposed by the candidate will be welcome.

These are entry-level positions. Required: MFA or equivalent experience;
previous college-level teaching experience; must be professionally active; an
interdisciplinary sensibility is an asset. These positions have the possibility
of renewal. The SMFA offers studio courses in diploma, undergraduate and
postgraduate programs. The SMFA is an equal opportunity employer. We are
committed to increasing the diversity of our faculty. Members of
underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply.

RHIZOME.ORG NET ART COMMISSIONS

CALL FOR PROPOSALS

+ Deadline for proposals: March 23, 2005 +
Rhizome.org is pleased to announce that with support from Greenwall Foundation, the Jerome Foundation, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, and the National Endowment for the Arts, between eight and ten new net art projects (works of art that are made to be experienced online) will be commissioned in 2005.

The fee for each commission will range from $1,500 – $3,500.

Rhizome.org is an online platform for the global new media art community. We are committed to supporting the creation, presentation, discussion and preservation of art that engages new technologies in significant ways. We emphasize innovation and inclusiveness in all of our programs and activities.

Artists are invited to submit proposals for new works of internet art. There is no required theme, but these works must be made to be experienced online, thus viewers/participants/players should be able to access the projects online, whether through a web browser, software, or some other use of internet technologies.

When evaluating proposals, the jury will consider artistic merit, technical feasibility, and technical accessibility.
Although we will provide some technical assistance with final integration into the Rhizome.org web site, artists are expected to develop projects independently and without significant technical assistance from Rhizome.org.

+ How to Submit a Proposal +
The jury will only consider proposals from members of Rhizome.org. To sign up for Rhizome membership, please visit: http://www.rhizome.org/preferences/user.rhiz?action=1&new=user

There are two parts to proposal submission:

1. You must create a proposal in the form of a web site that includes the following key elements:

+ Project description (500 words maximum) that discusses your project’s core concept, how you will realize your project and your project’s feasibility. If you plan to work with assistants, consultants or collaborators, their roles and (if possible) names should be included.

+ You are encouraged, but not required, to include a production timeline and a project budget, which should include your own fee. If you have other funding sources for your project, please indicate this in your budget.

+ Your resume or Curriculum Vitae. For collaborative groups, provide either a collective CV or the CV’s of all participants.

+ Up to 5 work samples. Note: More is not necessarily better. You should include only work samples relevant to your proposal. If your proposal has nothing to do with photography, don’t include images from your photography portfolio. Please provide contextualizing
information (title, date, medium, perhaps a brief description) to help the jury understand what they are looking at. The work sample can take any form, as long as it is accessible via the web.

When designing your web-based proposal, please note that the jury will have limited time for evaluations, so try to make your site clear and concise.

When your web-based proposal is complete, you are ready for Part Two of the proposal process:

2. Submit your proposal for a Rhizome.org Net Art Commission via an online form at http://rhizome.org/commissions/submit/.

We do not accept proposals via email, snail mail or other means. Proposals will be accepted until 5:00pm EST (that’s New York time) on Friday, March 15, 2005. The form at http://rhizome.org/commissions/submit/ requires the following information:

+ Name of artist or collaborative group
+ Email address
+ Place of residence (city, state/province, country)
+ Title of the project (this can be tentative)
+ Brief description of project (50 words maximum)
+ URL of web-based proposal


+ Jury +
Proposals will be reviewed by a jury consisting of Rachel Greene, Executive Director of Rhizome.org and author of Internet Art (Thames and Hudson, 2004); Francis Hwang, Director of Technology at Rhizome.org; artist Eduardo Kac, Professor and Chair, Art and Technology Department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago; Sydney-based artist, writer and curator Melinda Rackham, also of the –empyre- forum; and the head of Tate Digital Programmes, and Net Art curator at Tate Online, Jemima Rellie.

Rhizome.org members will also participate in the evaluation and awarding process through secure web-based forms. In this phase of evaluation, Rhizome.org members will be directed to the submitted web-based proposals. While this more open jurying process does mean that proposals could possibly be discussed publicly, there have been no reported conflicts or abuses of information reported.

+ Winners +
Winners will be contacted on or after May 1, 2005. Each winner will be asked to sign an agreement with Rhizome.org governing the terms of the commission. Commissioned projects will be listed on the main Rhizome Commission page and included in the Rhizome ArtBase.

Winners will be announced on or before May 1, 2005. Commissioned projects must be completed by December 1, 2005.

+ Questions +
If you have any questions about the Rhizome.org Net Art Commissions, please contact Francis Hwang at francis@rhizome.org or 212.219.1222 X202.

Journal of Aesthetics and Protest seeks submissions, deadline March 15

deadline 15 march
The Journal of Aesthetics and Protest is looking to promote actions, images, projects, and ideas that thrive in spaces of refusal by embodying alternative ways of being.

A function of art is to shape consciousness- a truth embodied demands reality structure itself around it. The Fascists' Agenda will not win because it cannot erase all un-conforming bodies. Images of refusal expand collective ideas of truth and possibility.

O' heretic- what discoveries have you made? Perform your difference, our otherness. You experience the sublime in places other than death. We want your living gay agenda. Show us how you don't need their foreign oil. Illustrate your day-to-day diet for a new america. We want to see the means by which you live otherwise.

The truths we live refute the notion that George Bush''s own God created the universe for him to run. While they believe.... -endless war creates freedom -the goals of global capitalsm should dictate social policy -love is only between a man and a woman -resource depletion and waste are the driving forces of a functioning economy ... we know otherwise.

If it is a culture war they want then shall we fight!

SPECIFICATIONS.

All media, actions and performances will be considered.

Contributions will be published online or in our pocket sized book (ideally fitting on one or two pages). Please consider these formats with your submission.

Questions/problems: contact(at)journalfofaestheticsandprotest.org

Submissions must be received by 3/15/05

Email to contact(at)journalofaestheticsandprotest.org
or
self-addressed, stamped envelope to JoAP 3424 Council Street LA, CA 90004.
Please enclose your contact information.

The Journal of Aesthetics and Protest is a site for critical and creative inquiry and, now, incitement. In print it is distributed internationally and online it is available at www.journalofaestheticsandprotest.org

Therefore, a particular emphasis is placed on the establishment and strengthening of contacts with national and international art- and artists•organizations. Corresponding exhibition programmes are decided upon by a committee in cooperation with the manager of the Kunsthalle Exnergassse whereby process oriented group projects are preferred. Interdisciplinary events are held within the programme of exhibitions in the 400 square meter space, such as symposiums, lectures, readings, concerts, book and catalogue presentations.

Kunsthalle Exnergasse invites you to submit exhibition proposals for the year 2006.

To evaluate the proposals we would need: concept (idea), name and a short CV of person/curator submitting the project and names of the people who participate in this project. This time there will be two phases of selection. Thus we request that you submit your proposal in a short version in form of one page. You can send this page per email or regular mail.

If the committee agrees on accepting your project in the first round, we will ask for further materials in the second. People whose proposals were not accepted will be informed immediately via email.

For more information on applications to exhibit, see http://www.kunsthalle.wuk.at/4e/frame.htm .

If you are interested, we encourage you to submit a proposal and also to inform other people, groups and organizations about this option.

Idensitat Calaf/Manresa 05
third edition
Call for Proposals

http://www.idensitat.org
idensitat@idensitat.org






We call for the third edition of Idensitat Calaf/Manresa 05, promoted by the Town Councils of Calaf and Manresa, and by Diputació de Barcelona and Generalitat de Catalunya. The aim is that of gathering different people attached to creative practices related to public space, either through practices of intervention or through an open and critical debate.

Idensity is a program that calls for projects, promotes interventions and proposes debates. Communal space, interaction, identity, communication, confrontation, participation and conflict are elements which, linked to social and cultural factors of a specific place, become activating tools for projecting and intervening in the public space from the field of creation. The present edition intends to lead these parameters of work towards a specific subject matter: Urban Growth and Expansion, an emerging phenomenon in both towns where the project takes place, Calaf and Manresa, and which, in short,will redefine their social and cultural context.

The call promotes the production of 5 projects in the contexts of Calaf and Manresa, and there is a fund of 8.000 • for project. The deadline for the projects is the 30th of April 2005. It is possible to consult the terms and conditions in http://www.idensitat.org. Contact for more information with idensitat@idensitat.org.
