Call for Submissions: Roadside Attractions

August 26, 2010

Roadside Attractions is now accepting proposals for art projects and installations for our 2011 schedule.

Roadside Attractions is an artist-run, storefront window exhibit space located at 911 Davenport Road in Toronto, Canada. The space is used for site-specific installations and other visual art projects with an on-going commitment to present exhibits that stimulate the promotion of contemporary art and culture in a venue that allows for provocative interactions with the populace at large.

SUBMISSION DEADLINE
September 30

We accept submissions for projects in any media with the provision that it is suited to the confines of the space, the exception being two-dimensional work that may be better suited for wall or easel presentation. Priority is given to new, site-specific projects.

Window space dimensions:
152cm x 203cm (front window) tapering to 177cm (back wall) x 53cm (H x W x D)

Exhibits are scheduled in six-week blocks.

We place listings for each installation in various media. Each current installation is prominently featured on our web page with a large image and statement regarding the work. Previous installations are archived with smaller images, crediting the artists and linked to their websites. A monthly e-newsletter is sent out highlighting each installation.

SUBMITTING IS EASY
Just send us:

A detailed project proposal describing the intended work
An artist’s statement
5 jpeg images of recent work (72 dpi, 1024 x 768 pixels max.)
Details regarding media, dimensions, date for each jpeg image
