AC Institute, NYC
REALIT(Y/IES)
seeks works to exhibit for its upcoming 2009/2010 season
This means that the dialectic of semblance and Real cannot be reduced to the rather elementary fact that the virtualization of our daily lives, the experience that we are living more and more in an artificially constructed universe, gives rise to an irresistible urge to 'return to the Real', to regain firm ground in some 'real reality'.
Slavoj Žižek, Welcome to the Desert of the Real!, 2002
Our call is not meant as a 'return to the Real' rather, like Žižek, we continue in an exploration of 'reality'―the things, the conditions, the concepts, the perceptions, the implications and the relationships and/or dialogues between them. Our focus is on the ephemeral (site-specific works, installation, sound video, etc) though any media/medium will be considered so long as they suit our various gallery spaces.
With your submissions, please include the following in an email (no attachments please):
-A short description and/or images of the work you are proposing for our spaces
-Your standard CV and contact information
-Links to your website or other sites where materials could be viewed, if possible
Deadline: 01/08/09
