Half Mystic Literary Journal - Call for Art and Musician Interviews

https://www.halfmystic.com/

In a piece of poetry, prose, art, or music -- we are interested in music, in every form that takes. More specifically: for the journal, we like pieces that make us rethink the issue’s theme, pieces that serve as incantations and invocations for melody. For the press, we like books that are different from anything we’ve ever published, books that introduce music into their lexicon in stunning and surprising ways. We look for work that defies genre, accounts for the unaccountable, wakes us up, burns us whole. We generally gravitate to the lyrical over the straight-talking and the surreal over the down-to-earth—but also, we like to be surprised.

Featured artist submissions: Send a cover letter (including a biographical note, an artist statement, and a brief description of what music means to you) and five to ten examples of previous art, in any medium. Featured artists illustrate Half Mystic Journal with a suite of 13-15 pieces inspired by the issue’s theme.

Band and musician interview requests: Send a cover letter (including a biographical note, the musical genre in which you primarily work, and your most recent releases), links to where we can find you online, and—if applicable—a press kit. Interviews are published on our blog, sent to our mailing list, and promoted on our social media.

Submissions accepted through Submittable: https://halfmystic.submittable.com/submit

Rat World - Issue 2

https://www.ratworldmag.com/about

RAT WORLD is an independent quarterly publication that showcases the “underground” - artists, writers, creatives who are pursuing interesting independent work in the community. This includes creatives whose work is too experimental / off kilter / weird for conventional magazines. This publication also places emphasis on providing a space for minority voices.

With planned features across Aoteaora, America and Japan, Issue Two is definitely something you want to be a part of.

Available on news stands in Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan and USA (Smoke Signals Newsstand, 2223 Polk St, San Francisco)

Reach out with your submissions and any questions. If you want to discuss a potential idea, we can also arrange a video call/coffee chat to talk.

Editor-in-Chief: Jennifer (Jenn) Cheuk

The Loss Show

http://www.fourteenfifteengallery.com/opportunities.html

It’s hard to know where to start isn’t it? How can one possibly begin to address this sense of loss we all feel? Over the last two years so much has gone missing: family, friends, colleagues, romantic relationships, places, institutions, jobs, prospects, plans for travel, stability, safety, a sense of others, a sense of ourselves. Even when we try not to think about it we are conscious of it, ever present, superimposed over our own world, a second one made up of vacuums, sustained fermata, dialogues dropped, cut-outs and silhouettes.

But in our efforts to cope with unrelenting disaster and upheaval, we were forced to push ourselves forever urgently, desperately forward. Which meant we could not take the time to grieve for what had been ripped from us. And on those occasions where we did stop to reflect on it, the burden of it weighed so heavily on us that we hesitated to share it, even with those close to us
…
Tell us what you have lost. In whatever medium you claim. Many of us already have pieces concerning this very subject we began in the last two years that we faltered to bring to completion. We humbly request you take them out and resume where you left off. Whether you choose to propose them for this exhibit or not.

Please email all proposals to fourteenfifteengallery@gmail.com, under the subject heading “The Loss Show /submission” by May 27th.


We are accepting submissions and proposals for solo and group exhibitions, curatorial projects, pop-up events, workshops, performances and other creative experiences.

Proposals should include:

Project description (1 page max)
Up to 10 images or links to audio/video
Email, phone
artist statement (or project/curatorial statement)


Your proposal can also include (optional):

CV/artist resume
brief bio
the month you’d like to show (no guarantees)
social media / web links


Please note: if your project doesn’t exist yet, you can send representative images of your work.
Please email all proposals to fourteenfifteengallery@gmail.com

The Tiny Hand Gallery Proposals:
We are also caretakers for the GRAFT Collective’s Tiny Hand Gallery, which lives in the hallway at fourteenfifteen. The Tiny Hand features tiny works of art and can rotate often. You are welcome to submit ideas for tiny tiny shows just for this special little exhibition space!

Twenty-Something: Call for Submissions

https://propellerartgallery.com/submissions/twenty-something/

Twenty-Something (July 13 to July 31, 2022) explores the transitional years from childhood to adulthood: the twenties. This exhibition will give a voice to the current challenges that young adults face right here, right now.

In an age where everything is being questioned; gender and sexuality, family dynamics, self-identity, relationship expectations, religion, politics, careers, lifestyle, and even geography; there is an incredible amount of room for interpretation and freedom within this exhibition. The most important thing is that the art reflects each artist’s thoughts and feelings on growing up in this time of great societal change. It can be about the world at large, or about your own experiences, as long as it reflects you and your perspective.

Submission Deadline: June 12, 11: 59 PM
The exhibition will be held in the North Gallery and Online from July 13 to 31, 2022

Submission Fee: $20 + HST for one work; $35 + HST for two works.

Artists who wish to apply must be between the ages of 20 and 29 and are encouraged to submit up to two pieces in any variety of medium or technique, with a maximum width of 40 inches. Each artist is asked to include an artist statement (up to 200 words) explaining the inspiration behind the artwork and how it relates to the themes of the show. This will be included in a downloadable PDF catalogue available through the website.

Applicants must be able to drop off their artwork themselves to Propeller if they want to be considered for the in-person show. Artists may choose to apply for the online exhibition only. Depending on the number of submissions and factoring in the size of the gallery, not all applicants may be selected for the in-gallery exhibition.
Important Dates:

Online Submission deadline: Sunday, June 12th, 2022 11:59 pm
Notification date to selected artists: Sunday, June 19th, 2022
Drop off dates for selected works: Sunday, July 10, 2022, 5-7 pm or Monday, July 11, 10 am-12 pm
Unsold artworks will need to be picked up from the Gallery at the close of the exhibition on Sunday, July 31st, between 5 -7 pm.
Works will be available for sale in Propeller’s Online Store: July 13- October 12, 2022
Opening reception: TBD

Organizers: Serena Kobayashi-LeBel, Frances Patella
Jurors: Frances Patella, Doris Purchase, Susan Freypons
