Live Herring ’11  - Call for (new) media art or workshop proposals until 
February 15, 2011

Suggest artworks, workshops, performance...

Live Herring ’11 will take place in sprint 2011 in Central Finland. It 
is a series of exhibitions and events focused on (new) media art.

The main events are the three different exhibitions: a digital image 
based exhibition in the Keuruu Museum, different kinds of projects and 
performances in the Jyväskylä Art Museum and finally a main exhibition 
curated by Tomi Knuutila in the Saarijärvi Museum. In addition there 
will be smaller exhibitions and several events such as performances and 
workshops, which will be also organised outside traditional exhibition 
surroundings, such as in public places, schools, retirement homes etc. 
Our mission is to show media art also outside the cities - in smaller 
places where media art is still a stranger!

1. We will gladly accept *any media art work proposals* from digitally 
made images to projection works, from interactive installations to sound 
works and from web art works to art using mobile technology - and of 
course submissions for performances and all kinds of shows are welcome.

2. We are looking for proposals of workshops and social art projects, 
where people can take part in. We try especially to find projects that 
could be taken to a "mini tour" of 2-4 realizations in all around the 
Central Finland, both in cities and in country side.

3. We also try to find experimental projects, which could be implemented 
as independent projects as part of the Live Herring '11 event! If you 
have an idea of exhibition or event, we can try to find a proper place 
for it and we can look for missing pieces...

Deadline for proposals / submissions is February 15, 2011. However, the 
artworks and workshop proposals are selected throughout the call. The 
first selected artists/proposals will be accepted already in the very 
first week of December. Particularly workshop, performance and 
collective art work and other project proposals (requiring longer 
organisation time) will be selected early!
