Outpost for Contemporary Art
CFP: Fair Trade
Calling All North American Artists: Outpost for Contemporary Art is pleased to invite artist proposals for a group series called "Fair Trade" that will take place in Los Angeles in Fall 2006 at sites appropriate to each accepted proposal. Deadline: February 13, 2006.
The goals for "Fair Trade" are: 1. To activate untraditional and/or underutilized space in Los Angeles to promote artistic experimentation to a broader public 2. To develop positive and productive collaborations with artists to produce projects that are speculative, intellectually challenging, and risk-taking 3. To consider how the three nations of the North American continent assert strong identities while simultaneously engaging in mutually beneficial partnerships.
As with Outpost's past collaborations with individual artists and artist groups, appropriate sites will be found for each accepted proposal we facilitate. Projects that are event-oriented and either participatory in nature or geared toward activating public space will be favored. All projects will be coordinated to occur over a set period of time in Fall 2006 and to take place in untraditional spaces and/or in collaboration with other organizations throughout Los Angeles.
