Atle Barcley, the former director for Atelier Nord and PNEK board who has recently relocated to the region, will present a sketch for these developments which will be presented at the conference on Feb 14 and 15.

Article biannual 2008: Call for artistic contributions

Article is a nordic biannual exhibition for unstable and electronic artforms.
i/o/lab together with co-curator Jens Hauser hereby invite you to submit proposals for artistic work and conference talks to be included in Article 2008.

We are interested in Nordic productions from areas including but not limited to:
* art making use of living material or oil material
* works addressing ecology/biology
* work for mobile devices
* concepts for broadcast television or podcasting
* installations for public spaces
* public actions
* social events

We are primarily interested in completed productions but will give equal merit to incomplete/suggested work and proposals in the evaluation of applications.

Article wishes to present work which is either site- or context-specific, work which explores and exploits the potential for artistic expression in everyday surroundings and objects. Please note that Article operates without a gallery space, and presents the selected art projects on public spaces selected in collaboration with the artist.

The artist/group we invite will receive artists fees.
Article will be launched 15.-30.November 2008

Deadline for submissions: Jan 1, 2008.
More info at the Article website or contact i/o/lab by mail at iolab@iolab.no.
