| Lanternhouse are delighted to announce 2010's FLI artist in residence |
olly and Lanternhouse are delighted to announce 2010's FLI artist in residence.
Will Schrimshaw is an artist-researcher from Wakefield, currently based in Newcastle upon Tyne. Often working with sound amidst a larger vibrational continuum, his work focuses on environmental interaction and the invisible determinants of space and place. This work is carried out by means of earth, text and code.
folly and Lanternhouse will welcome Will to Ulverston during the last three months of 2010, where he will engage and work in collaboration with a range of local and regional communities.
www.willschrimshaw.net
Now in their third year, the FLI Residencies offer support to artists working with new technologies to develop their ideas and extend their practice, with a particular emphasis on participatory activity.
The scheme is the result of a keen and dynamic partnership between two organisations, folly and Lanternhouse. The programme meets a real need for artists to have access to the high quality discourse and enriching creative environments that Lanternhouse and folly provide. Based in Ulverston, on the edge of the Lake District National Park, resident artists are able to devote time and space to their practice, engaging collaboratively with the host organisations and a rich tapestry of local communities, artists and creatives in the Northwest of England.

folly is a leading digital arts agency working across England’s Northwest.
folly presents an active artistic programme that provides creative interaction and collaboration between artists and the wider public using technology.
folly commissions, exhibits, promotes and supports creative work and innovation with a strong emphasis on the use of online media, networked systems and integrated technologies.

Lanternhouse actively encourages encounters between artists’ research, risk taking and participation. We do this through a mesh model made up of 3 strands of programming that enable artistic crossover:
Residency: Opportunities for artists, critical thinkers and curators/producers to undertake research and develop new projects
Commissions: Off site, digital or temporary projects by artists wishing to engage with people, place and big ideas
Open Door: A mixed bag of drop in events that enable people to see, debate and take part in art

| VIDEONALE 13 - CALL FOR ENTRIES. Deadline for submission is 20 September 2010 |
VIDEONALE 13 - CALL FOR ENTRIES
“A place for discoveries" - That's what art wrote about VIDEONALE, the German festival for contemporary video art. The 13th edition of VIDEONALE will take place from 14 April to 29 May 2011 at Kunstmuseum Bonn/Germany. As of now all artists are invited to apply for VIDEONALE 13 with a video work created in the past two years. For the first time VIDEONALE will also accept multi-channel works to the contest.
Founded in 1984 the biannually initiated VIDEONALE is counted amongst the oldest festivals for video art in Germany and Europe. Besides its high standard of presented works VIDEONALE reached a widely accepted reputation in its attempt to develop new forms of presentation for video art. Also at VIDEONALE 13 a team of architects and designers will develop a cutting-edge exhibition architecture to meet the requirements of the reception of media art.
For the 13th VIDEONALE about 40 works will be chosen by an international jury of experts and afterwards be presented in a six-week exhibition in Bonn. The show will open with a four-day festival featuring a variety of events. Starting in late summer the works of VIDEONALE 13 will be shown at further art institutions worldwide in the context of VIDEONALE ON TOUR. The works of VIDEONALE 12 were shown at the video art fair LOOP Barcelona/Spain, at the Museum of Modern Art in Glasgow/Scotland, at INVIDEO festival in Milan/Italy, at Bavarian House in Odessa/Ukraine, at several venues in Taipei/Taiwan and at the National Gallery of Bosnia-Herzegovina in Sarajevo/Bosnia-Herzegovina.
There's no set topic for submissions, but the submitted work mustn´t be older than two years (i.e. starting January 2008).
The exhibits will automatically be taking part in the competition for the VIDEONALE-AWARD which will be awarded by an international prize-jury.
Deadline for submission is 20 September 2010. Further information and application forms are available at http://www.videonale.org.

Area - space of contemporary and media art, Korcula, Croatia 11 – 27 . 8
opening Wednesday August 11 . 21 - 23 h
Guest curator Sarah Cook (UK / Canada):
Marina Zurkow (USA): Elixir III (from the Elixir Series 2007-2009)
single channel animation
Elixir III is one of a series of four single channel animations by Marina Zurkow which encapsulate human endeavour relative to the sublime forces of the oceans and skies. A single cut crystal decanter bobs and spins in a watery seascape reminiscent of a Romantic painting, while the weather turns overhead. In each animation a line-drawn figure appears inside the bottle, striving in a repetitive action: rowing, diving, stumbling. In Elixir III, a young woman flaps her arms which are tied to paper wings, but never lifts into the air. The artist cites the influence of the paintings of waves and swells by Russian artist Ivan Aivazovsky (1817-1900) yet the images read contemporaneously, drawn from modern day sources such as media coverage of dramatic weather events or holiday videos uploaded to the web, then rotoscoped by hand, frame by frame. Rain appears to splatter the screen, reminding us that we too are watching through a glassy surface.

| CONSERVAR, DOCUMENTAR, ARCHIVAR. Argentina |
PRESENTACIÓN El encuentro CONSERVAR, DOCUMENTAR, ARCHIVAR propone continuar la línea del primer seminario organizado por Taxonomedia en Buenos Aires: Conservación del arte electrónico: ¿qué preservar y cómo preservarlo? en el 2008. En esta ocasión nos centraremos en las aproximaciones emergentes y novedosas surgidas en estos últimos dos años, pero fundamentalmente retomaremos aquellos temas que se evidenciaron con mayor importancia en el contexto del primer evento: la digitalización, la documentación, el almacenamiento de obras, y el acceso a la información. De esta manera, dentro de la pregunta general que guía el trabajo de Taxonomedia - las estrategias y el sentido de la conservación del arte electrónico y digital - hemos apostado por dar una mayor cabida a los procesos para la conformación y mantenimiento de archivos y mediatecas. En el marco de este encuentro se debatirán desde aspectos prácticos sobre formatos para el almacenamiento y la migración de audiovisuales y piezas digitales, pasando por la conformación de redes de trabajo y el manejo de la accesibilidad a los datos, hasta los derechos de autor o cuestiones más conceptuales como el estatus del patrimonio artístico digital y la necesidad de discutir la implicancia institucional y las políticas de cuidado de este tipo de producciones. |
