Call for Proposals - Programming 2025-2026
Deadline: December 6, 2024, 11:59 pm EST
Generally invoking positive associations, ABUNDANCE incites thoughts of plentiful resources and a lack of want. In times of abundance there is no need for rationing, no necessity to limit anyone’s share. Not all abundance is joyous, of course. Excess can be perilous. A flood is an abundance of water. A forest fire creates an abundance of smoke. There are plenty of real world examples where abundance of one thing leads to scarcity of another.
For its 2025-2026 programming year, articule has chosen ABUNDANCE as its theme. We invite local, national and international artists, collectives, art institutions and curators to submit exhibition proposals that respond to this theme in whatever way they see fit.
As an artist-run centre dedicated to the presentation of a wide range of practices in contemporary art, who supports experimentation and social engagement, articule welcomes both emerging artists as well as those who have established important precedents and continue to commit themselves to the ideals of experimentation and risk-taking. We particularly encourage Indigenous artists and artists of colour to submit proposals, as well as artists with disabilities and self-identifying trans and genderfluid artists.
Before sending your submission, we invite you to visit our website to get more information on the different types of programming articule presents, our mandate, Basis of Unity and Programming Policy, and to view our gallery floor plan. Artist fees paid by articule are based on CARFAC Fee Schedule recommendations plus 3%.
Proposals must include:
clear description of the project and artist statement (max. 2 pages)
curriculum Vitae (for each participant, if more than one)
artist(s) profile (emerging / mid-career) * articule encourages artists to self-identify in their applications
Additional documents may include:
global budget with details on how articule’s support will be used
a specific date for presentation
any other document you deem pertinent to your application
Visual support material may include:
maximum of 10 digital images, clearly identified (maximum 500kb per image)
maximum of two video links, clearly identified (maximum of 10 minutes)
