Deadline: December 15, 2014 (ONLINE)
Line Describing a Cone: Tri-State Juried Exhibition
Katonah Museum of Art
Beitzel and Righter Galleries
Katonah, New York
January 18 – February 15, 2015
The definition of space is one of the fundamental features of visual representation in twentieth and twenty-first century art. From the oscillating layers of a Cézanne painting to the deep corridors of depth in a de Chirico work, artists have addressed the elements of three dimensions in various and often competing ways. Using film as light cutting through space, contemporary artist Anthony McCall’s work, Line Describing a Cone (1973) inspires this year’s theme; the piece is spatial and temporary, with light the primary medium giving form to an environment.
Artists are invited to explore the meaning of space in their work, using whatever materials and expressive outlets they require. Representing space is but one potential feature; experiencing with works that proclaim their physical relationship to their environment another.
Artists from the tri-state area (NY, NJ, CT) are invited to submit up to three paintings, drawings, prints, mixed media works, sculptures, photographs, or videos for consideration. All work must be executed since 2010.
FEE: Katonah Museum Artists Association (KMAA) members $15, non-members $25. Payments will be securely processed with PayPal and are nonrefundable. All artists are invited to join the Katonah Museum of Art Artists Association.
JUROR
Eva Respini is Curator at The Museum of Modern Art.

On the Fringe — Today's Twist on Fiber Art
Deadline: January 30, 2015 (ONLINE)
On the Fringe — Today's Twist on Fiber Art
Special Exhibit
Lake Oswego Festival of the Arts
Lakewood Center for the Arts
Lake Oswego, Oregon
June 26, 27, & 28, 2015
The Lake Oswego Festival of the Arts is announcing the Call to Artists for the 2015 Special Exhibit, entitled On the Fringe — Today’s Twist on Fiber Art.
Fiber art refers to fine art whose material consists of natural or synthetic fiber and other components, such as fabric or yarn. Fiber art focuses on the materials and the artist’s manual labor as part of the works' significance and prioritizes aesthetic value over utility.
Scope of the Exhibit
Much contemporary fiber art exists on the fringes. Is it craft? Is it conceptual? Is it traditional? We often want to fit creative identities into neat little boxes––organized and easy to understand––but we also know that reality does not often conform to that degree of simplicity. At the edges, where there is overlap, there is tension. The exhibit seeks to explore the energy in that tension.
The goals of the exhibit are to capture these currents in fiber arts with works based on traditional techniques, to showcase artistic ingenuity in the handling of materials, to reference historical textile traditions, and to offer a wide variety of fiber media.
We are seeking artwork that is at once forward thinking and traditional: coming from conceptual art practice while rooted in traditional techniques or materials.
Theme
The theme for the Special Exhibit is “On the Fringe” with an emphasis on using the medium of fiber in non-traditional ways. We will celebrate the wide range of today's fiber arts media and highlight the ingenuity with respect for traditional fiber arts, practices, and history.
Eligibility
The exhibit is open to work made with fiber or fiber techniques (including but not exclusive to quilting, embroidery, knitting, crochet, tatting, weaving, spinning, felting) or with elements that reference fiber or fiber traditions.
Makers of wearable art and jewelry, please consider whether Art in the Park is a more suitable venue for your work.
Works Eligible:
◾ All work must be original and created within the last three years.
◾ Maximum length of any side of the finished work is eight (8) feet.
Artwork for the Special Exhibit will be selected based on adherence to the stated theme, originality, personal voice, and technical skill.
Jurors
◾ MaryAnn Deffenbaugh – Director of Public Programs, Oregon College of Art and Craft
◾ Barbara Setsu Pickett – Associate Professor Emeritus, Department of Art, University of Oregon
◾ Sue Stone – Chair and exhibiting member, 62 Group of Textile Artists (UK) and Society of Designer Craftsmen member

Call for Papers
International Conference
First Textiles:
The Beginnings of Textile Manufacture in Europe and the Mediterranean
Danish National Research Foundation
Centre for Textile Research
University of Copenhagen
Copenhagen, Denmark
7th-8th May 2015
The two-day international conference First Textiles. The Beginnings of Textile Manufacture in Europe and the Mediterranean will take place on the 7th-8th May 2015 in Copenhagen.
The venue will be held at the National Museum of Denmark and the Centre for Textile Research at the University of Copenhagen.
An abstract of minimum 500 words accompanied by a short list of your publications and research relevant to textile studies are to be sent to the organizers by the 15th December 2014.
The aim of the conference is to present and discuss the recent achievements in the research field of the most ancient textiles and textile techniques in primarily Europe, Asia and North Africa in the Neolithic and the Early Bronze Age (ca. 8th-3rd millennia BC); the application of varied interdisciplinary methods of systematic analysis of textiles, such as studies on the most ancient textile remains, basketry, mat and textile imprints in clay; textile tools (e.g. spindle whorls, loom weights, needles, shuttles); experiments with copies of ancient textile implements; and recently developed scientific methods of analysing textiles and recognising the provenience of fibres. These all offer important insights into the oldest textile techniques, their beginnings and development throughout prehistory.
The number of speakers will be limited, and priority will be given to presentations of new material, to new analyses of older finds, and to new analytical tools.
There will be no conference fee and all are welcome to attend the conference as listeners, however, the organisers request that you to register in advance.

Open Submissions
Solo and Two-Person Shows
Belfast Print Workshop
Belfast, Ireland
September 3, 2015
Belfast Print Workshop is the largest space in the North of Ireland with it's own dedicated gallery where professional printmakers can share facilities, materials and ideas with each other. They have the opportunity to sell their prints through an integrated gallery and online to a worldwide audience.
BPW are now accepting submissions for a BPW Members solo or two person exhibition in the BPW gallery in 2015. The second 2015 show will open September 3rd 2015. Artists are encouraged to use both wall and floor space utilising both traditional and experimental techniques and technologies, exploring the boundaries of printmaking.
Submission is now open and will close at 5pm on 1st March 2015 for the September submission.
* Artists are encouraged to submit recent work (produced within the last year)
* Work cannot have been exhibited before at the BPW Gallery
* Work must be for sale
* All applicants must write an exhibition proposal, CV and provide images of recent work to clearly illustrate the concept and how you see your exhibition working.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ENTRY (truncated)
Digital prints are eligible only if it is clear to the selectors that they are original artworks made by the creative use of digital technology and that they are not reproduction prints.
As a guideline for print submissions, the BPW encourages printmaking as a creative art. Prints may be unique one-off pieces or they may be made as a signed and numbered, limited edition. All traditional printmaking techniques e.g. etching, woodcut, litho, screen print, mixed media etc. are eligible, as are the more recent technologies e.g. digital, photographic etc. but in every case the print must be an original creative artwork made by the methods chosen or a combination of these.
The selectors’ opinion on this will be decisive.
Hanging: The majority of the work must be framed in non-stock, good quality framing.
* Work that is not framed for aesthetic reasons will only be accepted if it is delivered in a suitable case allowing the work to be stored safely.
* Work that is not framed must be able to be securely fastened to the wall.
Should the artist require any specialist hanging methods the artist must supply the necessary attachments. Works requiring alternative methods of fastening or hanging must clearly state this on their application as a special requirement.
Artist Talk: The selected artist or artists shall agree to an Artist Talk at a chosen date throughout the show.
Archive: he selected artist or artists shall agree to donate at least one print exhibited to BPW Archive.

Open Submissions
Solo and Two-Person Shows
Belfast Print Workshop
Belfast, Ireland
September 3, 2015
Belfast Print Workshop is the largest space in the North of Ireland with it's own dedicated gallery where professional printmakers can share facilities, materials and ideas with each other. They have the opportunity to sell their prints through an integrated gallery and online to a worldwide audience.
BPW are now accepting submissions for a BPW Members solo or two person exhibition in the BPW gallery in 2015. The second 2015 show will open September 3rd 2015. Artists are encouraged to use both wall and floor space utilising both traditional and experimental techniques and technologies, exploring the boundaries of printmaking.
Submission is now open and will close at 5pm on 1st March 2015 for the September submission.
* Artists are encouraged to submit recent work (produced within the last year)
* Work cannot have been exhibited before at the BPW Gallery
* Work must be for sale
* All applicants must write an exhibition proposal, CV and provide images of recent work to clearly illustrate the concept and how you see your exhibition working.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ENTRY (truncated)
Digital prints are eligible only if it is clear to the selectors that they are original artworks made by the creative use of digital technology and that they are not reproduction prints.
As a guideline for print submissions, the BPW encourages printmaking as a creative art. Prints may be unique one-off pieces or they may be made as a signed and numbered, limited edition. All traditional printmaking techniques e.g. etching, woodcut, litho, screen print, mixed media etc. are eligible, as are the more recent technologies e.g. digital, photographic etc. but in every case the print must be an original creative artwork made by the methods chosen or a combination of these.
The selectors’ opinion on this will be decisive.
Hanging: The majority of the work must be framed in non-stock, good quality framing.
* Work that is not framed for aesthetic reasons will only be accepted if it is delivered in a suitable case allowing the work to be stored safely.
* Work that is not framed must be able to be securely fastened to the wall.
Should the artist require any specialist hanging methods the artist must supply the necessary attachments. Works requiring alternative methods of fastening or hanging must clearly state this on their application as a special requirement.
Artist Talk: The selected artist or artists shall agree to an Artist Talk at a chosen date throughout the show.
Archive: he selected artist or artists shall agree to donate at least one print exhibited to BPW Archive.

Hunterdon Art Museum Program for Independent Curators
Deadline: ONGOING/UNSPECIFIED {RECEIVE} or {EMAIL}
HAM Program for Independent Curators
Hunterdon Art Museum
Clinton, New Jersey
The Hunterdon Art Museum focuses on new and innovative work in all forms and mediums with the goal of creating dialogue, generating ideas and sparking creativity. HAM has a particular interest in work that explores the intersection of art, craft and design and work that displays the qualities of craftsmanship while pushing the limits of the materials in innovative ways.
The Museum seeks proposals that focus on innovative work by artists of outstanding potential and established artists who have international, national or regional reputations. Proposals may be for thematic or solo shows. Curators should have a track record of creating exhibitions in the fields of contemporary art, craft, and design; however, the Museum will also accept for review proposals from emerging curators developing their careers. Curators may not include their own work in the proposed exhibition. Additionally, the exhibition should not have been on view within 50 miles of the Museum’s location.
The HAM Program for Independent Curators is a dynamic project that opens the way for an array of ideas and viewpoints on contemporary art, craft, and design to be presented in the Hunterdon Art Museum’s exhibitions program.
Ideally, proposals should be submitted one to two years in advance of the proposed exhibition; however, shorter lead times will be considered and in some cases desired. Please do not send original art or documents, as materials will not be returned. The Museum will contact curators of interest for an in-person discussion with the Museum’s Exhibitions Committee to determine whether the proposal is feasible.

Designers in Residence Programme_ 2015 Brief: Migration
Deadline: UNSPECIFIED {ONLINE}
Designers in Residence Programme
2015 Brief: Migration
Design Museum
London, England
2016 Season
The Designers in Residence programme at the Design Museum is a core part of the museum's activity, and exists to provide practising designers, across any discipline, with time and space away from their regular environment to reflect, research and consider new ways of developing their practice.
The Design Museum is expanding its residency programme so that, from 2016, it includes learning, public engagement activities and training, with the aim of making the design process accessible to all of its visitors. Residents will in future be based on site, where they'll have access to studio space and shared workshop facilities. These spaces, viewable by museum audiences, will foster more direct engagement and exchange between residents and visitors.
2015 Brief: Migration
“The Design Museum’s move to the former Commonwealth Institute in Holland Park finally takes place in 2016. The museum is growing in both expertise and ambition as its staff, and the wider design community of which it is a part, begin to explore the complexities of a larger building and a new role.
This seems like a good background against which to explore the theme of migration, a word with a variety of meanings. It is striking that in America, for example, those who choose to move there are described as emigrants. Britain calls those same people immigrants — they are incomers. In the US, the emphasis appears to be on the act of leaving somewhere else, the implication perhaps being that surely just about anybody would be prepared to leave their home and make a move to the US if they could. Without either prefix, migration is a less loaded term. It also has a digital application. Data is made to migrate.
This year's Designers in Residence programme, then, invites designers to respond to this theme. It can be a reflection of objects or processes that imply movement, or transition, of shifting and cross-fertilising cultures, or of mobility.” Deyan Sudjic

Textile Society Call for Papers
Deadline: January 31, 2015 {EMAIL}
Call for Papers
Textile Society
Research Symposium
Wellcome Conference Centre
London, England
28th March 2015
The Textile Society is keen to capture the essence of current research activity in the UK. Our first two research symposia in March 2011 and March 2013 were both outstandingly successful. We heard a diverse range of presentations from researchers across the globe who represented many aspects of textiles. Those who attended, whether as members of the audience or as presenters, were very animated by the experience. We received an unprecedented volume of thanks for organising these important events.
To celebrate, encourage, explore and support on-going research into textiles in all their diversity the Society is funding its third research symposium. We are doing so in order that researchers, would-be researchers and anyone interested to know more about what is happening can get together, create links, encourage debate and share information at a central location.
Textiles: New Research Strategies III
Saturday 28th March 2015, Wellcome Conference Centre, Euston Road, London (opposite Euston mainline station) Saturday, 28 March 2015.
If you want to take part and are willing to present a short, sharp 15-minute overview of your research strategies, please contact either Dr Brenda King, Chair of The Textile Society or Dr Lynn Hulse, Editor of TEXT with an outline of your work by 31st January 2015.

ARTQUILTSreminisce
Deadline: February 20, 2015 {ONLINE}
ARTQUILTSreminisce
12th Juried Exhibition of Innovative Quilts
The Professional Art Quilters Alliance-South (PAQA-South)
Page-Walker Arts & History Center
Cary, NC
April 22 – June 21, 2015
Reminisce
Vacations with family, get-togethers with friends, and high school reunions are occasions when we indulge in sharing stories of our past. Vintage cars and old-fashioned clothes can remind us of events from way back when. Stumbling over memorabilia in the attic may evoke nostalgic feelings. Reading a poem or novel could trigger musings of joyful moments. Old photo albums, a favorite song, or the smell of a certain fragrance might even bring us back to a special place in time. We invite you to share memories of long ago or the not-so-distant past. Reminisce a little, then share with us your story in art quilt form.
Specifications
Innovative and original works only. No kits or quilts made in a workshop with the aid of an instructor. Quilts must be multi-layered and joined by stitching. All entries must hang on the wall and not exceed 60 inches in width or height. Free standing 3-D pieces will not be accepted. Quilts may not contain images or text that are protected by copyright unless the artist has obtained written permission by the time of submission. Proof of copyright permissions may be requested by the exhibit committee.
Accepted works may be mounted on stretcher bars or other rigid support as long as the supporting structure is hidden behind the quilt (e.g., gallery wrap). Please note, in the event this exhibit travels, rigid mounted quilts or those with excessive depth may be restricted from traveling. For works consisting of multiple unconnected units (e.g., diptychs or triptychs), each unit will be considered a separate entry.
Preliminary acceptance will be granted based on the acceptance of digital images. Final acceptance will be granted upon the receipt and examination of the quilt. We reserve the right to eliminate entries that do not fit the specified guidelines and omit accepted quilts from the exhibition that do not contain the same qualities as the submitted images. The exhibition committee’s decision is final.
Awards
Cash awards for excellence in design include: 2 Juror's Choice and 1 Gallery Choice.
Submission process opens January 1, 2015 and ends at midnight CDT on February 20, 2015
Entry Fee: $25 for PAQA-South members, $35 for nonmembers, for up to three quilts. Online entries pay using PayPal.
