Sydney Film Festival
From 5-16 June, the Sydney Film Festival’s 60th year will showcase the best in cinema from across Australia and around the world, including features, documentaries, short films, retrospectives, restorations, animation and more.
One of the world’s oldest film festivals, Sydney Film Festival reflects the historic development of the Australian film industry (including the careers of key Australian film creatives). By remaining amazingly consistent through six decades of turbulent social and cultural history, the festival has served as a touchstone for generations and acts as an annual forum for cultural thought and discussion.
The SFF programming team gathers an amazing selection from the world’s great festivals, adding to our finest local productions to create a packed program of more than 250 screenings for event goers.
Highlights also include the twelve films that vie for the Official Competition with a $60,000.00 cash prize based on the decision of a jury of international and Australian filmmakers and industry professionals.

The Arts Awards is an annual community event run by Cancer Council Victoria.

It gives people who have been affected by cancer a way to express their journey creatively through art, literature or film. Anyone can enter – survivors, carers and family members of loved ones lost to cancer, of all ages and artistic abilities.
The theme for 2013 is Balance. Cancer can change the balance of life. It can bring chaos, confusion, a sense of clarity, even a sense of empowerment. Share your insights with us
Now in its 16th year, the awards are one of the only programs of its kind in Australia.
There are nine categories for entry:
Children’s Art (up to 12 years)
Children’s Writing (up to 12 years)

Solid Ground_Echoes_WebButton
Call for Proposals – Solid Ground II: Echoes
Solid Ground II: Echoes Curated by Tom Macphail*
13 – 30 June 2013
With a Federal election approaching, Solid Ground II: Echoes is an inquiry into the current debates pertaining to asylum seekers and refugees within Australia by bringing together a range of artists and writers, aiming to approach the subject by expressing a variety of viewpoints, observations and lived experiences.
The aim of the exhibition is to focus on the facts of the current issues whilst considering Australia’s immigration history, international context and the political rhetoric and media sensationalism that has marred the issues and demonized ‘boat people’. The ‘White Australian’ policy of earlier decades demonstrates that Australian’s fear of outsiders is nothing new, yet the current polarization of the voting public reveals issues of underlying xenophobia that we have yet to shake off.
At The Vanishing Point gallery, in association with OPEN Marrickville is calling for artists whose artworks/practices are engaged with the above subject and writers who are looking to be published with the show’s accompanying zine. All medium and contemporary visual arts practices are welcome to apply.
Propose up to 5 artworks per artist.
Proposals due 6pm Sunday 2 June.
For a proposal form http://www.atthevanishingpoint.com.au/web_images/2013_ProposalCalls/Solid%20Ground%20II%20Echoes%20Proposal%20FORM_WEB.pdf
For further information http://www.atthevanishingpoint.com.au/index.php?p=9_6
or call (02) 9519 2340 or email info@atthevanishingpoint.com.au
*Solid Ground II: Echoes is supported by funding from Marrickville Council’s Open Marrickville festival & ATVP’s Emerging Curator Mentorship program, supported by The Visual Arts and Craft Strategy and the NSW Government through Arts NSW.

The Fish Bowl - new project space call out
The Fish Bowl – new project space call out
As you may have heard the new Dean (Ross Harley) has given his offices on the ground floor of D-block to the student body as exhibition or project spaces.
These glass walled rooms look out on to the courtyard and are an amazing place to conduct performances, live art production, and exhibit installations.
This new space is called The Fish Bowl. It will be open to any student* who wishes to use it. One room is for a week-long exhibition of work/ experimental project, another is a casual space to trial installation possibilities of your work for a few hours.
All you need to do to gain access to these awesome new rooms is to send a proposal to the Courtyard Collective via the Arc Office at COFA. As long as you aren’t using anything problematic like a raging bonfire or litres of sulphuric acid, we’ll slot you in!
Contact us at cofa@arc.unsw.edu.au

WALLPEOPLE LOGO1 wallpeople_01
Wallpeople is a collaborative art event that happens in 45 cities around the world at the same time. A city wall will become a makeshift outdoor gallery, where all participants may exhibit their own works and collaborate to create an improvised open-air museum.
This year, Sydney joins the global network of creatives for the first time, and invites all city artists & creative enthusiasts alike to join us on the 1st of June in Newtown.
Created in Barcelona in 2009, Wallpeople invites people to create and be a part of a unique experiment in an urban space, thus making an ephemeral street artwork.
Wallpeople 2013 – MUSIC EDITION
The guiding theme for 2013 is MUSIC. We want everyone to express their unique relationship with music, no matter what genre or style. The participants have two possibilities:
1. Reinterpret a song in an artistic format of choice: illustration, photography, text, painting, collage, canvas…
2. Create any art work related to music in a general way: For example: a tribute to an artist, a concert, a musical moment of your life, your favourite style, musical origins…

4.Stick your work(s) on the wall with the rest of the works. If your inspiration is a particular song, you must indicate the name of the track and the artist.
5.Wallpeople team will have the necessary adhesives but we still ENCOURAGE YOU TO BRING YOUR OWN MOUNTING TAPE OR ADHESIVE TAPE if possible, to facilitate the process. You can also BYO art supplies as we encourage all participants to make live art creations.
6.Wallpeople team will mark the start and ending of the event (about 3-4 hours).
7.At the end of the exhibition, you can take your work back or swap it with another participant’s, thus turning the event into an artistic exchange. If you want, you can write down your contact information, in case who took your work wants to contact you.

WhatOnEarthAreWeEating
Call for proposals: What on Earth are we Eating?
ATVP is currently Calling for Proposals for…
What on Earth are we Eating?
a group exhibition about food
9 – 19 May 2013
Opening launch Thursday 9 May 6-9pm
Artist talks Saturday 11 May 2-4pm
What are we eating tonight? Dinner Parties
(Sat 11, Tues 14, Thur 16 & Sat 18 May from 7pm)
What on Earth are we Eating? Curated by Ebony Secombe & ATVPs Co-Director team * is an exhibition that provides a platform for discourse pertaining to, and around, the relationships we have with food. The ways in which we relate to what we eat, what others eat, how we eat and who we eat with expose some of the inner most layers of the human condition.
Notions and issues of health, mass (over or under) consumption, biotechnologies & genetical engineering, sustainability and environmental/ecological concerns, as well as examining how food is used as a vessel for human interaction in contemporary society, are just some of the topics that one could choose as an avenue for inquiry.
Why do we eat together (or alone)? What does it mean to be a consious (slow food) eater? What drives our eating habits? How does what we eat or don’t eat effect our bodies? How do our choices around food effect our environment? These are some of the questions that this exhibition is seeking to present a platform for discussion and interaction.
As part of this exhibition ATVP will host a series of intimate dinner parties (What on Earth are we eating tonight?). Members of the community (individuals or groups), exhibiting artists and our audience are invited to propose themed evenings/menus for the program by volunteering an evening to cook a meal for 8 guests. Each dinner guest will contribute $10 to the evening, and the selected chefs for each evening will create a 3-course meal with a budget of $80. Each dinner party will be documented where cooks and guests will be given the opportunity to discuss the exhibition, artworks and its themes in a friendly conversational environment.
Proposals for artworks, performances and happenings are open to artists, working in any mediums, including edible art.
Propose up to 5 artworks per artist. An exhibition fee of $100 per artist will apply to each artist selected.

At the AGM, all those interested in the positions available at SCASS can put their hand up and be democratically elected by their peers.

Best part is that there is NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY! You learn on the job and previous directors will assist you if you need help!

This is one of the best ways to gain the experience necessary for future participation in the art community!

DedSpace Positions Available:
Co-Directors (Max 3 People)
This is a team position and the responsibilities are shared among the chosen directors.

Some tasks include:
- Exhibition call outs & Schedualing
- Dealing with Exhibiting Artists and/or Curators

- Managing Facebook Page & Event Invites
- Managing and updating DedSpace Blog & twitter acconts
- Dealing with existing and potential gallery sponsors

- Enjoying a great night at every opening!

What is DedSpace you ask?

DedSpace Gallery is a student-run, not-for-profit gallery located in building 15 of Sydney College of the Arts (SCA). It is made possible with funding from University of Sydney Union (USU) and Sydney College of the Arts Student Society (SCASS), both of which are directly funded by ACCESS program membership.

We aim to provide a venue for students to exhibit their work and to gain professional experience to further assist them for a future outside of the university setting. We also intend to foster the student experience by providing a space that encourages interdisciplinary dialogue and critical discussion.

We look forward to seeing you at the SCASS AGM on 10th April 2013!

bigci_1 Bigci.org Artist-residency

Artists are welcome to stay for an agreed period of time either in the house or the studio – depending on availability – to create new work, develop ideas, or work on their projects. The work space will depend on artist’s project requirements. The vision is that the extraordinary beauty of the surroundings will provide a ground for professional development. The house, studio and bushland are available for all kinds of initiatives. Each project will be agreed on individually. Proposals are welcome throughout the year – each time of year has its own beauty and creative possibilities. It is recommended that proposals are submitted well in advance. Successful applicants are charged a subsidised residency fee. The 2013 rate is AUD$250 (plus $25 GST) per person per week for Australian artists and AUD$300 (plus $30 GST) for international artists. This includes a private room and shared living facilities, bathroom, kitchen, internet,  electricity, water and artist support. Successful applicants will be responsible for all other costs including food, transport, travel costs, insurance and art materials. They will be required to pay a refundable bond of AUD$500 prior to occupancy to cover any costs associated with damage or extraordinary cleaning. BigCi is located on the edge of Wollemi National Park, about one hour and a half away from Sydney. Due to a remote location of the BigCi, a car is strongly recommended. Please note that BigCi does not provide transport and that the artists are responsible for making the neccesary arrangements. In cases when the artist is unable to have a car, we will provide a pick up/drop off from Richmond train station on arrival/departure and once a week transport for food shopping. Note that there is no stipend or living allowance attached to the stay in BigCi. Interstate and overseas artists in particular should consider other ways to fund their visit.

There is a possibility of an exhibition at the end of the residency and of a presentation on the BigCi website as Resident–in–Spotlight. To secure the booking, the residency fee including the refundable bond is payable upon the approval of the application form. All applicants will be notified in writing of the outcome of their application.
