Here, in Vancouver, Canada, we will be presenting it in the form of an outdoor projection and installation.

The Gladstone is now accepting submissions for 'Why the @#&! Do You Paint?: Go Figure' Gladstone's Annual Painting Show (October 4th - November 28th, 2016). SUBMISSION DEADLINE JUNE 30TH 11pm EST Hashtag: #WTFDYP @GladstoneHotel Drawing from the human form is an act of observation and an action that creates human empathy. Utilizing the figure, as a subject matter is where some of the earliest human marks were made. Stories were told, histories were recorded, and the obsession with observing the human form began. Although the history of figurative work is extensive, questions as to whom, we are observing, recording, and rendering are more contemporary. Historically, figurative painting exhibitions are an array of images depicting privileged bodies painted by privileged bodies. For the second annual Gladstone Why the Fuck Do You Paint exhibition calls for paintings which consider the voices and bodies left out of this conversation as well as some of the bodies who traditionally appear. Gladstone's exhibition opens up our call expecting to see some of the best of the best figurative painting reflecting any of the bodies we might find in our worlds. What should you paint? You "figure it out." Participation Fee: $75 + HST ***There is no fee to submit a proposal.

59 EXHIBITION: NAISA 2016 CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS SOUND RESPONSE

Deadline June 15, 2016 www.naisa.ca Categories: Transmission Art/Radio Art, Electroacoustic Music/Sound Art, Interactive Installation Art, and Other Go to http://naisa.ca/opportunities/calls-for-submissions/naisa-general-call-for-submissions/ for full information and on-line application New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) invites artists of all ages and nationalities to submit works on the theme Sound Response for consideration in New Adventures in Sound Art’s 2017 programming. Sounds, people, animals and environments interact in interesting and complex ways. Languages are shaped by environments, sounds often distinguish the character of a community or habitat, and sound waves propagate differently when they respond to different surfaces and atmospheric conditions. For its 2017 programming, NAISA is interested in submissions that reflect the notion of a Sound Response and creative ways that this can be shared. Preference in programming will be given to works that respond in some way to the theme Sound Response. Individual interpretations or variations on the theme are encouraged, but should be realized with sound as the primary component. NAISA would also like to encourage artists to submit works on the theme for performance, gallery exhibit, audio-visual screening, radio or internet broadcast, telematics, mobile experiences and any other emerging or alternative formats that include sound as a primary element. Please complete in full the online submission form and upload your audio by midnight on June 15, 2016. Note: there is a $5 submission fee in order to defray the cost of processing the submissions. All works chosen for presentation will receive an artist fee. Only those artists being considered for presentation will be contacted.

63 EXHIBITION: CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS — COME UP TO MY ROOM (#CUTMR)

January 19th-22nd, 2017 Submission Deadline — June 15th 11pm EST Come Up To My Room (#CUTMR) is an alternative design exhibition that provides a platform for experimentation outside the norms of art and design, at the edges between intention and interpretation. Freed from the constraints of traditional practice, CUTMR encourages spatial exploration that engages our senses, our memories and our perceptions of reality. The exhibition challenges participants to push their everyday practice by offering a blank canvas upon which to explore new themes and ways of working. Framed within the backdrop of the historic 126-year-old Gladstone Hotel, CUTMR invites artists and designers to create site-specific, immersive installations that stimulate the imagination and encourage discussion and dialogue between contributors and visitors alike.

The 14th installment of CUTMR will take place between January 19 and January 22, 2017. We invite you to submit proposals as individuals or as collectives, and multidisciplinary teams are encouraged. This call is open to Canadian and international participants. 2017’s THEME is Transplant. For more information please visit: comeuptomyroom.com or the Gladstone Hotel's website.

PROCESS The Come Up To My Room (CUTMR) curatorial process is unique in that we select the artist/designer/teams for room installations based on their portfolios and then work with them in an open dialogue to create site-specific installations based on their personal vision. We choose you, but we don’t know what you will do with your space until we “come up to your room.” With this kind of curatorial process as the core premise of the show, CUTMR reinvents itself each year and is never presented the same way twice. PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITIES • Second Floor Immersive Installations: Participants create new, site-specific work in

rooms or public spaces on the second floor. A total of 8 rooms are available. Public spaces include, walls, foyers, alcoves and a pop-up bar. Submissions for these spaces should be installation based and aim to transport the visitor into a complete immersive, “otherworldly” environment.

• 3rd and 4th Floor: Hallways and public spaces are available for exhibition proposals

which will orient visitors to Toronto to its vibrant alternative design scene. Curated group works and associated exhibits are welcome to apply.

• • Other Public Space Projects: Participants create functional or performative pieces

that engage visitors throughout the hotel. This includes: • Exterior Spaces – Available spaces include the green roof, facades, alleyways, windows, balconies and projections that activate the street. Ground Floor & Main Stairwell – Available spaces include the vestibule, front desk, cafe brick wall, ballroom for the Love Design Party, main stairwell, elevators, balcony alcove archway (BAR). Proposals for activating our food and beverage areas are welcome as well as installations in the cafe and the Melody Bar. We also have smart TVs for animations/film (some limitations due to service). Other Spaces – Got an idea you don’t see here – let us know! • Performances & Events: Ask us if you’d like to collaborate with Gladstone Resident Artist Bruno Billio. We also accept proposals for performances during programming, sound pieces and proposals for works or events at offsite Locations. The sky’s the limit really! Floor plans of the hotel are available here: http://www.gladstonehotel.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Gladstone-Artist-Spaces-2.pdf

This project aims to respond to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada’s Calls to Action and to preserve, query, and reveal the complex personal, political, and public narratives around Canada’s residential school system, in general, and the Mohawk Institute Indian Residential School (at the Woodland Cultural Centre) specifically, through the art of contemporary Aboriginal artists. The Mush Hole Project selection committee is seeking individual responses from artists that question the following: Apartheid, Assimilation, Decolonization, Education, Genocide, Intergenerational Trauma, Mohawk Institute, Nourishment, Reconciliation, and Truth. The artists of the Mush Hole Project will animate the Mohawk Institute Indian Residential School site. Artists may propose interior and/or exterior works or creative interventions and should identify a site on the grounds of the Woodland Cultural Centre for the installation or performance of their work (for example, the driveway, apple orchard, library, kitchen, etc). Artists are encouraged to consider the residential school system through the dichotomy of both historical and contemporary knowledges and creative practices. Mush Hole Project and Save the Evidence: The Mohawk Institute Indian Residential School building at the Woodland Cultural Centre has been providing in-depth and historically significant insight into the Residential School System for the past 44 years. The Mohawk Institute is one of less than 10 residential schools still standing across Canada. With close to 10,000 visitors every year, tours and programs offer a distinctive look into First Nations and Canadian history. The Mush Hole Project aims to raise awareness and encourage support for the Save the Evidence campaign, to ensure that the physical evidence of this dark chapter in Canadian history is never forgotten. Selection Process The selection committee encourages proposals by artists from Six Nations of the Grand in Ontario and from the greater Ontario region; however, all Aboriginal artists are encouraged to apply. Artists may propose new works or offer existing works for the consideration of the selection committee. The committee is interested in a wide range of media including, but not limited to: dance, film/media, installation, sound art, visual/theatrical/musical performance, and visual art. Submissions must include: • Project Description: applicants should describe the proposed art work, project, or

performance including title, medium, dimensions, duration, spatial and technological requirements

• Selection of Images: 2-3 images of the art work, project, or performance (if it is an existing piece)

In a virtual world, the connection to the reality of clay, and to creating, is an

imperative one.

About Elemental Festival and 4e - Sep 30th to Oct 2nd 2016, the second annual Elemental Festival will take place in Kagawong, a village of less than 200 people on Mnidoo Mnising | Manitoulin Island. Presented by 4elements Living Arts (4e), a local interdisciplinary non-profit arts organization, the festival is site-specific and includes multiple forms of contemporary art. At 4e we’re shaking loose outdated mind-sets about where contemporary art can happen. This year’s curatorial theme is ‘Walking’. Despite its typically spontaneous, occasionally reflexive, and sometimes somnambulatory nature, walking is a complex action. It can be both physical and performative; a deeply personal and a political act that claims and carves out space emotionally, politically, socially and culturally. We follow routes,

sometimes newly created recreational trails, sometimes traditional trading routes or harvesting paths whose origins have been erased through colonial territorialization. Paths aren’t always human-made. For Elemental Festival, we have invited works that propose to examine a complex range of socio-cultural, and geo-political paths; that consider the legacy of walking with a particular focus on walking in the context of our specific rural and ecologically sensitive site. This year’s confirmed artists include: Matt Coelin, Intallation artist, Sault Ste Marie Judy Martin, Fibre artist, Little Current Elisha Sidlar, Performance artist, M'Chigeeng First Nation Judy Bowyer, Installation/sound artist, Kitchener Chris Turnball, Installation artist/writer, Kemptville Madhur Anand, Ecologist/writer, Guelph The festival includes two full day writing workshops, artist talks, community art engagements, community walks, and panel discussions. Outdoor installation and performance works will animate the village as the Salmon make their annual run up the Kagawong River. Call for Submissions - Emerging Artists working in any medium are invited to submit proposals for work to be installed, or performed during the festival. Projects should relate to our curatorial theme, and our organization’s mandate. Typically projects are installed outside, or have an outdoor component. We can provide assistance with the installation and an honorarium of $500, plus free entry to any festival workshops you wish to attend. If you have a great idea, please submit the following items attached as a single .pdf to patricia@4elementslivingarts.org • Full name, address, and contact info; website if you have one • A brief project proposal (1 or 2 paragraphs) • A brief artist statement (1 paragraph) • Artist CV (2 pages or less)

Please also submit 5 good quality images of your work with an corresponding image list (images should

be no larger than 1MB and should be images that most relate to your proposed project)

• $10 application processing fee via e-transfer (think of it as a donation to a wee tiny arts organization doing great things – it will make you feel warm and fuzzy) or cheque to the 4e office.

Use ‘Artist proposal – Elemental Festival 2016’ as the subject line. Deadline: June 15 Elemental Festival Writing Prize – We invite writers to submit works of previously unpublished short prose (700 words or less) that engage creatively with our curatorial theme. All entries will be juried by a panel of local writers. Winning entries will be read at the festival opening. 1st prize is $150 2nd prize $75

3rd 4e swag Start writing! Entries can be submitted to patricia@4elementslivingarts.org - please use ‘Elemental Festival Writing Prize 2016’ as the subject line.

86 PUBLICATION: KAPSULA MAGAZINE CFP: THE END

Deadline June 30, 2016 Starting September 2016, KAPSULA will no longer be releasing regular monthlies to our subscribers. Opting instead for a collaborative, projects-based publishing model, you won't be getting rid of us too easily; however, to mark THE END of KAPSULA as we know it, we ask writers to consider the idea of finality in both contemporary art and criticism. And as a nod to the last three years, through which the magazine, arts writing, and the broader network of arts disciplines have undergone significant changes on varying scales, we're asking writers to highlight a topic specific to the period that KAPSULA has been produced: 2013 - 2016. What, in the broad sense, has led us to THE END? Topics may be international in scope,

but must fulfill the thematic and calendrical restrictions. Whether it's an exhibition, a text, an artwork, or a seemingly unprecedented phenomenon in the art world, we ask that it be dated no earlier than 2013 and speak to the concept of finality in art. We made it this far without literalizing the magazine into a time CAPSULE, but awash with sentiment, we couldn't help ourselves. Submit abstracts, proposals and finished papers to submissions@kapsula.ca by June 30th, 2016. As always, we strongly encourage you to view both our archive and our guidelines prior to submission. http://kapsula.ca

Call for applications for the residency period in 2016/2017 Programme Guidelines **IMPORTANT** Please read carefully this programme guidelines, about page, and

the downloadable application form to understand and decide if this residency is suitable for you. Should you have any questions do not hesitate to contact us before applying. Please submit all required material to: submission@residencyforartistsonhiatus.org Eligibility Residency For Artists On Hiatus (RFAOH) accepts applications from artists who are currently NOT making or presenting art. The applicant should have had a professional career with an exhibition record, training in visual arts or equivalent experience, and the recognition of their peers. If you have an appointed exhibition or presentation, or a project to start in the future and are simply waiting for it, RFAOH does not consider this as a hiatus. Requirements The residency period should be a minimum of six months to a maximum of one year. Selected residents are expected to document their on-hiatus activities (or non-activities) and to provide periodic updates during their residency on their page of the RFAOH website. They are also asked to submit a written report on their experience at the conclusion of their residency. This documentation material will later be published as part of the RFAOH annual report. Should an occasion for resuming one's artistic practice unexpectedly occur, the resident may withdraw from the residency; in such a case the inclusion in the publication will be subject to consideration. Further, any on-hiatus endeavours conducted during this residency should not be considered an art project; therefore we ask that its documentation not be used in any future "art" presentations or exhibitions. Please keep in mind that RFAOH is an opportunity for the residents to focus on their "non-art" project or endeavors, rather than to conceive ideas for future art projects. Selection and Stipend Resident artists will be selected based on their on-hiatus proposal. Preference will be given to proposals which demonstrate a rigorous interest in their "non-art" endeavour to be conducted during their residency. Successful applicants will be awarded a stipend of $30 CAD per month in exchange with their participation. This amount is subject to change depending on funding. Successful applicants will be notified approximately two months after the application deadline. If selected, residents are asked to sign a contract.

CYPRESS: 96 PERFORMANCE: OPEN CALL FOR CYPRUS PERFORMANCE ART WORKSHOP 2016 THE MARATHON

Deadline: 15 June, 2016 The Marathon hosted by Sensorium Space with Dagmar I. Glausnitzer-Smith, Zierle & Carter, PASHIAS and Francesco Kiàis APPLICATION DEADLINE: 15th June 2016

10th - 18th September 2016 / Nicosia, Cyprus This year "The Marathon" Performance Art Workshop will be visiting Cyprus, following its course from last year’s versions in Berlin hosted by Cell63 Artplatform and in Athens hosted by epitelesis - Performance Art Foundation. In Nicosia, the workshop and public events will be hosted by Sensorium Space, consisting of an introductory day, six consecutive workshop days from the 11th until the 16th of September, a final presentation of live performances by the participants and a feedback session on the following day. "The Marathon" will be guided by international artists Dagmar I. Glausnitzer-Smith, Zierle & Carter, PASHIAS and Francesco Kiàis, in gallery spaces and in the public arena at the heart of Nicosia. Concept & Methodology: Often used as a metaphor for strenuous efforts and concentration, the 'marathon' aims at reaching a 'finish line'. But a 'marathon' runner learns to distribute energy on the way, making of every step a 'goal' and of every path a 'purpose'. This experiential workshop offers participants a unique and intense input/collaboration with five internationally established artists, in order to experience an array of methodologies and processes of performance art, whilst being actively encouraged to delve into their own new and unchartered territory. By inviting each participant to discover a personal journey, the 'marathon' offers a route into five stages of diverse artistic and pedagogical approaches in order to generate a common territory to meet, share and give space for risk taking, whilst shifting the parameters of creation. On Saturday 17th of September, the journey of each participant will be transformed into a new 'starting line' by leading into a final event of live performances open to the public and organized specifically according to their resulting work. Before the workshop week, a special event hosted by Sensorium Space, on Friday 9th of September, featuring live performances by the workshop facilitators, will allow both participants and the public to experience the artists’ working practice and give an insight into their own 'marathon' route of performance. Schedule Outline: 09/09 : PLUS-MOTION - Live performance art series featuring workshop facilitators 10/09 : Arrivals / First Meeting (Participants should arrive in Nicosia no later than 17:00) 11/09 : Sculpting Action - By Zierle & Carter 12/09 : Along the edge, across the borders - By Francesco Kiàis 13/09 : The Performative Walkabout - By Dagmar I.

WALES: 115 PAINTING PRIZE: BEEP WALES INTERNATIONAL PAINTING PRIZE

Deadline: 18 June 2016 Application fee: none Beep2016 prize is now open to entries and is seeking work for two exhibitions that responds to this years' theme of 'This must be the place I never wanted leave.'

Who: Beep (Biennial exhibition of Painting) has been running since 2012 and is a not-for-profit large scale celebration of contemporary painting. This year Beep is FREE to enter and is open to painters from all over the world. When: 5 Aug - 3 Sept, Swansea, Wales UK & 7 Oct - 5 Nov, Wrexham, Wales, UK Payments: Main Prize £1000 and solo exhibition with elysiumgallery, People's Prize: £200 Details: Beep is Wales's only large-scale contemporary international painting exhibition taking place at different venues every two years. 2016 will see the main exhibition tour from Swansea to Wrexham and include satellite exhibitions, events and residencies in and around Swansea, Wrexham and Cardiff. This year's theme aims to explore notions of perception, memory and belonging grounded in a place, space or time in the medium of paint. The realisation of this 'place' evokes abstract perceptions. Psychological impressions, physical memory, re-imagined and reconstituted fragments develop from deep felt multi-sensory experiences. Investigation into 'the place I never wanted to leave' (and may have left, by will or necessity) should offer a profound awareness of the elusive nature of objective reality. Longing for another place and time suggests a longing to restore totality of being. In the same way a smell, a sound or a sight momentarily transport us to the centre of an experience in place, so can the image. Beep 2016 is seeking artists' submissions in response to these ideas, reconstructing their own 'modes of transportation'. The exhibitions will take place in two large venues. The exhibition artists will be selected by elysiumgallery, Swansea and the judges will be artist Shani Rhys James MBE and Jonathan Watkins, Director Ikon Gallery, Birmingham This year Beep2016 is FREE to enter. After the selection process if you are one of the artists picked to participate in the Swansea and Wrexham exhibitions you will be required to pay a £25 exhibitions fee which will directly feed straight back into the set up and prize costs. Beep and elysiumgallery are not-for-profit, artist-led organisations. Please see website for further information on venues and activities. APPLY: Please email submissions to Beepwales@gmail.com or hard copies (by CD or paper copies) can be sent to: Beep2016, elysiumgallery, 16 College Street, Swansea SA1 5BH, Wales, UK Proposal must include: Name, address and contact details of painter - Where you heard about Beep2016 (name of magazine, website, etc.) - A submission of up to TWO paintings (high quality JPEGS) with title/s, dimensions in cm, medium, year - 250 words maximum statement (Word document or in an email) on the submitted paintings relating to the theme and a brief artist biography (this will be used for the online catalogue) - link/s to website or recent works (this will only be used by exhibition judges if needing additional information picking a winner) More info: elysiumgallery is an artist led, self-sustaining enterprise comprising of artist work spaces and a contemporary art gallery over 3 locations in Swansea City Centre, Wales, UK.
