| Espai Obert Call for Entries
Espai 13
1996–97 series, Anatomies de l’ànima (Anatomies of the Soul)
As part of the Anatomies de l’ànima series at Espai 13 during the 1996–97 season, the Fundació Joan Miró invites artists to participate in the Espai Obert call for entries, which will take place from 9 to 11 May.
The call is open to all artists working in the field of visual arts. Submissions may include painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, installations, video works and performance-based projects requiring direct artist intervention. Selected works will be exhibited in Espai 13 and other areas of the Fundació, such as the terraces.
Anatomies de l’ànima explores different interpretations of the human body. A booklet with an introductory text on the series is available free of charge. The Fundació Joan Miró encourages all potential Espai Obert participants to visit the exhibitions and engage in the series activities so that their submissions respond to the themes under discussion.
Guidelines:
The jury will assess submissions based on the following criteria:
- Relevance to the theme of the series.
- Use of an experimental approach.
- Manageable dimensions, allowing the Fundació Joan Miró to accommodate as many works as possible; in the case of performances, feasibility of technical execution.
Participants are responsible for all costs related to their involvement, including the transport and installation of their works, as well as personal expenses.
While the Fundació Joan Miró will take the utmost care in handling submissions and artworks, it cannot be held responsible for any accidental damage.
Artists must submit their application along with visual documentation of their proposed work by 4 April 1997. Slides are preferred, but photographs (maximum size 15 × 20 cm) will also be accepted. For unrealised projects, a written description (maximum one page) must be included. Video works must be submitted in VHS format.
Once the selection process is complete, applicants will be notified of the jury’s decision by post. They will also receive details regarding the delivery date for selected works and the schedule of programmed activities.
