CALL FOR GESTURE/ACTION/EXPRESSION THEMED ART - June 30, 2009
CALADAN GALLERY presents a juried exhibition entitled "GESTURE, ACTION, EXPRESSION". There is certain purity present in the raw element of the association between material and energy.

This can be manifested in color, texture, subject matter, or just directed intention in general. For this exhibition we seek to delve into this vast realm, to bring motion to the surface. We have been extremely fortunate to be creating an exciting, diverse, and active meeting place for artists and viewers alike, in a warm and positive virtual atmosphere since 2003.

CALL FOR ART PROPOSALS - December 6, 2009
The new art project on the Berlin Underground, U10 – from here to the imaginary and back again, sets a focus on the social and collaborative dimension of public art. Artists or collaborative groups of artists and non-artists are invited to take part in this call for submissions. Preference will be given to artists who see their work as a means of exchange and shared dialogue and who are interested in reaching new audiences. This may include a readiness to collaborate with, for example, groups of BVG staff or passengers who have little experience of contemporary art. The organisers cannot take part in the call themselves. The U10 project will run for a maximum of 3 years. The organisers are looking for situation specific and/or participatory projects which focus on the Berlin Underground and its staff and/or users. They can range from being short, interventionistic artistic reactions to specific occurrences on the Underground to being long term collaborations. The competition sees members of staff, passengers, kiosk and snack bar owners, buskers and ticket traders not only as a potential audience but also as potential collaborators on a joint research of the Berlin Underground.

FILM FESTIVAL ABOUT WHAT IS NORMAL - September 30, 2009
Niet Normaal translates in English to Difference on Display. This new campaign from the Netherlands dares to seek and reveal how "normal it is to be different". Unspoken assumptions color our perceptions when we meet and assess others. Whether we realize it or not we are influenced in various, often unspoken ways by ideas about "the norm." Through Niet Normaal, artists, filmmakers and other producers are challenging how norms and difference operate in contemporary society. How we construct and adopt ideas about what is normal is examined in the context of today’s culture of perfection, consumerism and the growing interdependence of humans and intelligent technology. Entry fee.

CALL FOR ART ABOUT TEXAS - May 27, 2009
Open for two-dimensional and three-dimensional artists anywhere in the world and is expected to elicit a variety of styles from abstract and contemporary to representational and traditional. The first annual juried exhibit focused on everything Texas, entitled 'What Texas Means to Me'. For more than a century, Texas has evoked big dreams and strong emotions. The Texas spirit encompasses early settlers and prospectors to oil barons, farmers and cattle ranchers and now high tech and politics. Texas influences include Mexican, Spanish, and French rule, Native Americans, German immigrants and an overarching sense of independence. It seems that no matter what part of the world people are from, Texas inspires. The show's theme will be built entirely upon artists' inspirations and impressions of any aspect of Texas' past, present or future. Entry fee.

CALL FOR BRAZILIAN ARTISTS IN THE US - July 1, 2009
Artists living and working in the US are invited to apply for the show scheduled for the early Spring of 2010. "What is your Brazilian Essence?" is perhaps a provocative question at the time when identities are increasingly hybrid and fluid. Certainly, it is easier to speak of "essences" rather than a unified, singular essence of any kind. This is particularly true of Brazil, the country which cultural heritage is as rich and diverse as the vast geographic area it spans. Yet, the question remains whether Brazilian heritage still imbues contemporary art works with any particular, volatile qualities. Against homogenizing tendencies of the global mainstream, we seek flavors and notes that strike unique and specific chords. Open to all media. Entry fee.

CALL FOR ART ABOUT MOTIVATION/GOOD & EVIL - May 31, 2009
CALADAN GALLERY presents a juried exhibition entitled "Motivation: Behind Good and Evil". What defines the manifestation of good and evil? The moral process is at the forefront of evolution. We, as a species, the human species, are presumably the only one on this planet capable of distinguishing between moral justice and spiritual decrepitude. This study of MOTIVATION is an element within the work of the artists we are seeking for this exhibition. We have been extremely fortunate to be creating an exciting, diverse, and active meeting place for artists and viewers alike, in a warm and positive virtual atmosphere since 2003. All mediums except video are eligible.

CALL FOR "WABI-SABI" THEMED ART - May 29, 2009
Any media or material, from major installations to miniscule "gems." Because the Wabi Sabi ideal is in such contrast to our usual (Western) approach to art, the emphasis of this exhibit will be not on the final perfected form of the work, but on how well pieces reflect the sense and feeling of this elusive concept. In particular, focus will be on the imaginative use of materials and uniqueness. See the Wabi-Sabi portion of the website for inspiration and more definitions. All works must be ready to display and labeled with artist's name, telephone, medium, size, and price, if for sale. Entry fee.

INTERNATIONAL CALL FOR VIDEO SUBMISSIONS - June 20, 2009
The 2nd festival edition will pass under the PEKING DUCK OR VIDEO IN TIME OF CRISIS motto. We believe this title corresponds with the core aims of VIDEOHOLICA FESTIVAL and also it is definitely provoking, actual, and gives opportunity to stimulate original visual art proposals covering very wide sphere of problems and meanings. Nowadays, in time of global financial crisis, the motto in question focuses on two contrast models that control the world - luxury and poverty - in the broad sense of the meaning. The motto also corresponds with the concept of "high" art and the video art as one of the most popular contemporary media, which nowadays is becoming more and more accessible for the artists around the world. In the frames of the PEKING DUCK OR VIDEO IN TIME OF CRISIS motto, this year's festival edition gives certain directions for approach and development of the idea of international collaboration and partnership, concerning video art phenomenon with its complicated meaning and sense. Entry fee.
