Online and print publication on culture, art, philosophy, and everyday life. Our aim is to readjust global cultural production and offer a multiplicity of vantage points and perspectives from West Asia, North Africa, Eastern Europe, the North and South Caucasus, Central Asia, East and Southeast Asia, and beyond. Our ambition is to become one of the most important publications in our core regions by conducting in-depth research and sharing findings with our audience in ways both enticing and accessible.

  
EastEast is first and foremost a media platform. We use texts, photographs, audio, and video to tap into the unique and sometimes unnoticed sides of countries situated on the East-East axis. Our content is released via weekly features, daily announcements, and quarterly thematic issues. Each issue is also published in print, in the format of a newspaper with unique visuals and special projects inside. The material is published in English and Russian with an Arabic version of the platform set to launch in 2024.

  
Opposed to the external communication of facades and walls, the architecture of interiors is preoccupied with the internal life of buildings and those that dwell within. This may mean inner yards, rooms, or intimate affairs between neighbors, the materials and pipes under plaster, memories, gossip, family rituals, and objects hidden from the eye of a passerby.

Selected films will be screened on the EastEast website and the winner will receive a prize of 500 USD.

“Interiors”: An Open Call for Emerging Filmmakers

**Would you like to have the space and time to expand and experiment on your artistic practice all while exhibiting your progress to the public? Would you look forward to exchanging ideas and going into dialogue with other students or emerging artists and/or designers? Are you either an artist or designer who sees their artistic practice as fluid and interchangeable?**

  
**About the Project:**

In 2024, Het Paviljoen invites artists to explore the ever-evolving boundaries between art and design. Today's artists and designers are no longer confined to rigid disciplinary lines; they embrace a cross-disciplinary approach, blurring the distinctions that have traditionally separated these fields. This project seeks to bridge the divide and encourage dialogue among artists from diverse backgrounds, fostering a limitless framework of creative expression. We aim to challenge the age-old question of separation and encourage artists to dance on once-concrete and unmovable walls of division. The project will take place on the grounds of the Bijloke KASK & CONSERVATORIUM in Ghent, offering a space for rotating exhibitions, performances, and events.

  
**About the Curators:**

We are a group of curators, including Sina Eden, Paula Swinnen, Manon Laverdure, Lisa Verhaege, Karel Op ’t Eynde, Justine McKenna, Ismini Kyritsis, and Camille Van Meenen, selected to curate Het Paviljoen.

  
**About the Space:**

Het Paviljoen is a unique collaborative space located in the front yard of the KASK & CONSERVATORIUM building. Originally a waiting area for pregnant patients and later a dump for nuclear waste, Het Paviljoen has evolved into a dynamic space used by residents, students, and renowned artists. Its history reflects the plastic and ever-evolving nature of creative expression.

  
**Duration:**

Approximately 6 weeks of occupation, with specific scheduling to be discussed with participating artists.

  
**Start Date:**

The project commences in the first half of February, with each artist being assigned a 6-week exhibition period within a 5-month timeframe.

Transport/travel to the location is the artist's responsibility. 

You will be able to occupy Het Paviljoen for a term of approximately 6 weeks. Which period you will occupy will be discussed once accepted.

  
**What we provide:**

  
• You will receive a participation fee

  
• The opportunity to participate in a curated exhibition or event (Our current plans already include one vernissage, one finissage, and one event in the middle of the project. Your events could be added to these.)

  
• The ability to pitch and discuss possible events that fit within your artistic practice

  
• The curatorial team will be there to go into dialogue with you about any curatorial or presentational questions or thoughts you might have.

  
• Documentation and communication of your artistic practice, events we organize and progress within the project will be posted on the Het Paviljoen website and Instagram.

Pride Photo Award 2024

The KUNSTVEREIN GLOBAL FOREST will award two project-based, two to three months artist residencies for research and artistic production. The residencies will take place after individual arrangements between 1 February to 4 May 2024\. The results of the residencies will be presented to the public at the annual VOGELKLANG-SOUNDCAMP on 4 and 5 May 2024\. The two residencies are intended to enable artists to develop a project- and theme-related work and to present it within the framework of the VOGELKLANG-SOUNDCAMP. The artists will be supported in the production process by the GLOBAL FOREST team.

  
The VOGELKLANG-SOUNDCAMP is a locally and independently organised event linked to a global network of different actors. Its aim is to artistically explore and communicate the behaviour and habitat of our feathered friends. The original inspiration for the BIRD SOUNDCAMP came from the environmentalist and broadcaster Chris Baines and his International Dawn Chorus Day, which was launched in the 1980s. On each first Sunday morning in May, various temporary sound camps around the world join together to create a global bird sound symphony. Through the cooperation of all sound camps, a 24-hour livestream of continuous morning chirping is created, in which the VOGELKLANG-SOUNDCAMP in the Black Forest also participates. A worldwide phenomenon is thus made tangible along the sunrise: the morning song of the birds. In 2024, this will be May 5.

  
In addition to the 24-hour bird concert produced collectively by the sound camps, the VOGELKLANG-SOUNDCAMP in the Black Forest will also feature a cross-media festival programme on site. This includes workshops, lectures, installations, performances, etc. - many of which are interactive and designed for participation.

The two residencies include a rent-free stay at the KUNSTVEREIN GLOBAL FOREST (comprising a spacious living and studio space with kitchen and bathroom, which is shared, and a private room), a stipend of 1000 €/month, reimbursement of material costs up to a maximum of 500 €, reimbursement of travel costs up to a maximum of 250 € (national)/700€ (international), and free board and lodging during the VOGELKLANG-SOUNDCAMP.

_“And did you feel it, in your heart, how it pertained to everything?_

_And have you too finally figured out what beauty is for?_

_And have you changed your life?”_

_\-Mary Oliver Excerpt from The Swan_

Field Guide is an exploration of the ways in which we compile and exchange knowledge that is intended to transform our experience of looking at the world. Making an introduction for us of something or someone unfamiliar, field guides move us to become familiar. They transfigure the unrecognized to the seen, the foreign to the known. In an era of ever shortening attention spans, a field guide does not only help us differentiate and identify, it helps us look, deeply, and appreciate. That attention can help us love. 

This exhibition is a call for artwork that makes an offering of information, instruction, or insight that can help us identify and make known. Like compact manuals meant to be carried with us “out in the field”, this artwork should invoke new kinds of recognition to see the world and ourselves with deepening attention not just from our heads but also our hearts. Whether developed by experts or enthusiasts, that posture of attention is a field guide pertaining to everything. That is the guide through which we can discover what beauty is for, and how through it, we can be changed. 

  

  
**Artwork delivery date: 01/08/24 - 01/12/24 DO NOT SEND ARTWORK BEFORE THE 8th. The Gallery is closed from December 23 - January 7th and we will not receive your work.**

**Exhibition Dates: 2/01/24 - 6/28/24**

**Reception: 2/13/24**

Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center invites emerging and established artists to submit original artworks to Metamorphosis: Recycled, Repurposed, Reimagined. This exhibition seeks to inspire environmentally sustainable artmaking through found objects, creative reuse, and upcycled art. By repurposing by-products, waste materials, or unwanted objects and transforming them into something with more perceived and artistic value, we encourage artists to explore environmental themes, engage in social commentary, implore a call to action, or infuse realism, emotion, or humor in their work. Artwork in this show is meant to be eye-opening, engaging, thought-provoking, inspiring, poetic, and even sometimes playful and optimistic. How are contemporary artists engaging with objects in a world overrun with too much stuff?

  
Artwork for Metamorphosis: Recycled, Repurposed, Reimagined must include a repurposed material as a primary medium. 2-D and 3-D artwork will be considered. Outdoor artwork is also welcome. All work must be created within the last four years. Artists must be 18 years or older. This exhibition will be open to the public in the Kay Daugherty Gallery of Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center, from February 9 to April 21, 2024\. It will be a primary feature at our Earth Arts Fest on Saturday, April 20, 2024\. Short-term paid residencies are available to artists accepted into the Metamorphosis show for this unique outdoor eco-art festival. Details about this additional opportunity will be sent upon acceptance into this gallery show. You can read more about Earth Arts Fest here: https://www.annmariegarden.org/annmarie2/node/245

Metamorphosis: Recycled, Repurposed, Reimagined

The Fiminco Fondation residency has been designed with artists in mind, while providing curators with spaces, resources and professional support. Its aim is to create an environment conducive to the development of different artistic expressions, the enhancement of artistic practices and the deepening of research, while fostering synergies.

  
The primary objective of the residency is to provide the curator with a unique setting for a research and creation work. The Fiminco Fondation residence includes production workshops dedicated to a variety of disciplines such as construction, ceramics, 3D printing, engraving, silkscreening, photography, video and graphic design, making it a true center for contemporary creation.

  
The Fondation Fiminco organizes a variety of events (exhibitions, performances, conferences, art history courses....) throughout the year, all free of charge and open to all members of the public. Designed as a place to increase awareness of contemporary art, open to its environment, all residents are encouraged to develop interactions with visitors. As a true local stakeholder, the foundation develops partnerships with cultural institutions, local authorities, schools and associations, in order to carry out educational, artistic and cultural projects for audiences far removed from culture. Considering the importance the Fiminco Fondation attaches to transmission and mediation, particularly with young audiences, the curator’s involvement is highly desired and appreciated!

  
The Fondation Fiminco curatorial residency will last 3 months, from **March to May 2024.**

The Fiminco Fondation residency is intended to help artists and curators gain visibility on the French art scene and become part of a cultural network. The curator will be supported by the foundation's team throughout the residency.
