Montreal Monochrome : Special Projects


  • articule 6282 Rue Saint-Hubert Montréal, QC, H2S 2M2 Canada (map)

Time Machine : Comment réfléchir le temps?

Call for projects : Winter Window Show 2022

For its eighth edition, Montreal Monochrome reflects on the different notions of time. How do we reflect on time in an era where current events seem to be in constant flux and intertwined without a real capture of current injustices? How do we reflect on time when we are all part of an ecosystem of artists and cultural workers with different realities and diverse backgrounds? How do we reflect on the notions of crip time (1) and its multiple definitions, from one experience to another? Can we really decolonize time? Is time influenced by a linear western and capitalist vision or is it rather a circular notion (2)?

As a project of the Fabulous Committee, this year the Short Term Programming Committee is joining the efforts of the Fabulous Committee to combine the annual conference with a window exhibition and a Special Project.  Both proposals are an invitation to think about the new gallery space in terms of multiple notions of time.

Call for Special Projects: Complementing the articule exhibition program, the Special Projects promote independent projects of various kinds for public presentation. Inspired by the theme of Montréal Monochrome, the selected projects can take the form of public interventions, action art projects, manoeuvres, new artistic practices, conferences or workshops, video projections or undisciplined practices. Please note that this is not a call for exhibitions and cannot last more than three days. articule offers an artist's fee of $1325.00.

PROPOSALS MUST INCLUDE:

● A 250-300 word summary of your proposal. 

● The title and duration of your activity.

● A list of technical requirements (if available).  

● A paragraph (500 words max) with information about you and your practice. Please feel free to mention internet links or attach relevant documentation if available.

Send your submissions to soumission@articule.org

Submission deadline: November 15, 2022 at 11:59 pm.

Event dates: December 8-10, 2022 at the articule gallery

Submissions must be designed for the articule space, see space map.

—-------------------

The Fabulous Committee is a space for Black, Indigenous and/or racialized articule members, as well as Black, Indigenous and/or racialized queer and/or trans members, to come together, to have a space to care for each other, to exchange ideas, to share their practice and to see art together. The activities of the Fabulous Committee change according to the needs and desires of the members.

The Short Term Programming Committee is particularly interested in "undisciplined" practices and projects that manifest themselves in in situ contexts and/or non-gallery sites.
