Team FUKT Magazine

FUKT is initiating its annual open call for outstanding artistic drawing positions for the 2023 edition. After launching 20 issues over the years, our next issue focuses on the concept of the 'unknown.' With an overload of information in society and in times of deep uncertainty, we all must embrace what we don't know enough about to ask the right questions or identify the knowledge gaps. We want to present the unseen, unfamiliar, unknown, and unremembered concerning the concepts of futures, histories, universes, the subconscious, spiritualism, dreams, deep secrets, aliens and strange worlds. The drawings can be abstract, realistic, sequential, conceptual, experimental, text-based, or purely visual, made in graphite or color pencil on paper, charcoal, ink, digital, mixed media, threads, drawing installation, 3D and more.

Can we give these objects a second chance and utilize them to create something new and beautiful?

Artists are invited to submit works that are created using trash or works that showcase trash as the main subject matter.

Photography has emerged as a powerful tool to tell stories of science and simplify scientific ideas and concepts that are difficult to capture through words. Through ‘Science in Focus’, we are seeking compelling visual stories on the theme of ‘everyday science’. Science is not just confined to research labs or classrooms, it’s a way to make better sense of the world around us and to help solve our many problems. This competition will allow participants to share their encounters with science in everyday life.

What does climate change look like?

Every picture tells a story – and we want to see yours. We’re now accepting applications for the GLF Climate 2022 Photo Competition. Whether you’re a professional or amateur, nature or urban photographer, we’d love to see your perspective on the impacts of climate change, as well as ways we can tackle it.

Send us your best pictures on how the climate crisis is impacting your landscape – or how your local community is dealing with it. Whether it’s a story on drought, floods and other climate disasters, or how people are acting to reverse rising temperatures, we want the world to see it.

Entries will be accepted until 16 October. Finalists will be announced on 26 October and requested to send a short video message telling us the story of their picture. The winners will be announced on 11 November at GLF Climate 2022 alongside COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. The best photos and short videos will be displayed at the GLF Climate Art Gallery.

Good luck, and we look forward to receiving your submissions!

With the support of the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation, we’re pleased to announce this year’s open call for Hyperallergic’s Journalism Fellowship for Curators. Now in its fourth year, this fellowship has evolved to provide five curators $5,000 to support their research and writing, while inviting our readers into their process along the way.

As part of this fellowship last year, we worked closely with five curators who shared their research and process through insightful articles, online events, and a digital exhibition emailed directly to over 140,000 Hyperallergic subscribers. Projects covered topics as far-ranging as the Kiowa Tribe’s commissioned murals and the artists of the Chilean island of Chiloé. We’re excited to continue collaborating with enthusiastic curators researching topics of importance, while also helping to illuminate and demystify curatorial work.

Five fellows will each receive a $5,000 grant to work with our editorial team to develop and expand their research in order to contribute two articles to Hyperallergic, participate in a recorded online event, and produce an email exhibition that is accessible to a wide audience. We encourage curators to take an experimental approach in designing their email exhibitions, which we’ll share with over 175,000 Hyperallergic newsletter subscribers.

We hope to accept a wide range of fellows and plan to host one per month from November through March. We encourage those who can work independently and have a clear vision for their project to apply. Please indicate which months you would be available for this fellowship and which months are not possible with your schedule.

Both established and emerging curators at least two years out of college are welcome to apply. We ask that you be upfront about your limitations, what you plan to exhibit, and how the fellowship’s focus on sharing your project with a public audience will help you realize your goals. Proposals with concrete plans for exhibition will be given priority. Whether a well-known museum or grassroots art space, all exhibition venues will be considered equally.
