Hallie Ford Fellowship in the Visual Arts
Deadline: March 14, 2014 (ONLINE)
Hallie Ford Fellowship in the Visual Arts
The Ford Family Foundation
Roseburg, Oregon
2014 Season
The Ford Family Foundation awards up to three unrestricted Hallie Ford Fellowships in the Visual Arts per calendar year, each in the amount of $25,000, to Oregon mid-career visual artists who have demonstrated a depth of sophisticated practice and potential for significant future accomplishment. These fellowships honor the late Hallie Ford, co-founder of The Ford Family Foundation based in Roseburg, Oregon who left a legacy of a life-long interest in and support of the visual arts. She believed strongly that others should have the opportunity to realize and fulfill their talents. The Hallie Ford Fellowships in the Visual Arts are one way in which the Foundation Board intends to sustain her contributions and founding role by actively supporting the people she grew to know and respect for their work during her lifetime.
Recipients are chosen based on the evolution of their work, the quality of their existing work, and the promise of future potential. They are chosen by a panel of arts professionals familiar with the work of Oregon visual artists, the national contemporary art discipline, and who are experienced in fellowship selection processes.
Eligibility
Application is open to any Oregon visual artist actively producing new work who meet the following criteria:
• be a practicing visual artist currently producing works of art in the fields of fine and contemporary art and craft;
• be a full-time resident of Oregon for at least 36 months prior to the application deadline, provide legal proof of residency if awarded a fellowship, and remain a resident through the duration of the grant period;
• be 30 years of age or older at the time of application;
• evidence, through appropriate documentation, seven (7) or more years of serious, active professional participation in his/her medium;
• not be enrolled in a degree-seeking program, either part-time or full-time at the time of application or during the successive grant period.
Visual Arts Medium: The Foundation recognizes that advancement is being made in a broad array of visual arts mediums and, therefore, does not want to be unnecessarily restrictive. The Foundation will accept applications from any visual arts medium with the exception of film, video and animation. However, it will emphasize the more classic disciplines in the early years of the Fellowships, in keeping with Mrs. Ford's interests and experiences.
The Foundation does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, color, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, disability or religion.
Selection Process:
A jury of five arts professionals, representing a wide range of expertise and experience in the practice and/or curation of art and craft and fellowship selection processes, will review all applications independently. They will then convene as a group to deliberate on a pool of semi-finalists to arrive at a collective recommendation to the Foundation of three finalists based on the quality, evolution and the effect the Fellowship will have on the candidates' work. The use of the award funding is unrestricted.

2013 Taller Portobelo Norte Summer Art Colony
Deadline: May 1, 2013 (ONLINE)
Artist Residency
2013 Taller Portobelo Norte Summer Art Colony
Portobelo, Panama
June 30 - July 21, 2013
Taller Portobelo Norte was created as a way for multidisciplinary artists throughout the United States to stay connected, share exhibition and career development information and help further the critical discussion and examination of the art and cultures of the African Diaspora, especially as they are manifested in Latin America and the Caribbean. To this end, we have created a year round roster of cultural trips and workshops, of which the 2013 Taller Portobelo Norte Summer Art Colony is one.
Taller Portobelo Norte Summer Art Colony measures its success by the level of creative excellence and cultural exchange that it contributes to an already thriving artistic community and encourages artists to reach beyond the boundaries of any one discipline to expand the possibilities of artistic vision.
Eligibility:
The 2013 Taller Portobelo Summer Art Colony is open to emerging and professional Visual, Literary, Musical and Performing Artists in all disciplines, mediums and genres, and Scholars and Researchers of all disciplines - both creative and academic - to submit project proposals for work to be developed during the 3 week residency. Keeping in mind that the residency is short, our goal is to support participants in realizing works-in-progress and the production of new, small works.
We define the parameters for “artists” and “scholars” loosely enough to encompass a wide variety of projects. Don’t be discouraged if your idea does not fall neatly into a specific box. Present a compelling idea and articulately explain your need for three weeks of uninterrupted time to explore it.
Although we ask for a project proposal, we encourage participants to think of this as a loose plan and come ready to create work without a predetermined agenda or schedule. A big part of the value of this artistic experience is a high level of interaction with peers and the local community. From the waters of the Caribbean Sea and the impromptu soccer games in the plaza, to the songs and drumbeats that animate a local performance tradition called “Congo,” Portobelo provides rich, multi-sensory inspiration. We aim to provide a space for visionary artists/scholars whose work stimulates and expands artistic/scholarly boundaries and conventions to create work that challenges themselves and gives voice to their ideas.
This opportunity offers unique potential for artistic experience and production. Portobelo offers a non- traditional approach to art practice. “Studio space”/“work space” not only include Taller Portobelo facilities, but also the colonial forts surrounding the town, the open plaza, and other designated experimental spaces. Artists shall supply his/her own tools and materials necessary in completing the work. If you have special requirements, please indicate so in your proposal.
United States citizens are required to have a valid passport in order to enter the Republic of Panama. Visa/ Tourist cards will be distributed to you on the plane.
Application Fee: $25
Upon receipt of application and $25 application fee, the selection committee will review your proposal, work samples and references and notify you of their decision within two weeks.
If you are accepted into the program, you will receive an Acceptance Packet with additional information and forms. You will forward the residency fee with the Acceptance Packet. The application and residency fees are non-refundable, so please be sure you are dedicated to attending before you apply. Financial Assistance is available, however all participants are expected to make a financial contribution to their residency.

Call for Artists: Connector, Port of San Diego Public Art
Deadline: January 15, 2013 (ONLINE)
Call for Artists
Connector
The Port of San Diego Public Art Office
San Diego, California
June/July 2014 (First Site Installation)
Connector is a new Port of San Diego (Port) public art project designed to encourage artistic investigation of Port tidelands in the development of a temporary large-scale artwork that will travel to locations on tidelands in San Diego, National City, Coronado, Chula Vista and Imperial Beach. The selected artist or artist team will create a dynamic, transportable artwork that transforms five unassuming spaces on tidelands in an imaginative and unexpected way.
ELIGIBILITY
This Call for Artists is open to professional, practicing artists in the United States and artists who currently hold proper visas allowing them to work in the United States. Proof of visa/work permit documentation may be requested for verification.
PROJECT GOALS
The goals of the Connector project are to encourage artistic investigation of the tidelands in the development of a large-scale, site-specific public artwork that:
• Is artistically compelling both aesthetically and conceptually;
• Exemplifies a dynamic approach to public space and human engagement;
• Transforms, adds to, or is fundamentally ensconced in unassuming spaces in the District’s five member cities in imaginative and unexpected ways;
• Is transportable and durable to withstand travel to multiple locations on the tidelands; and
• Creates connections and a series of evolving experiences along the tidelands, in support of the “public” public art creative direction.
ARTWORK OPPORTUNITY (truncated)
The artist selected for the commission will collaborate with the Port on the conceptualization and realization of the artwork.
The artwork should be artistically compelling both aesthetically and conceptually with high visual impact. Through a dynamic approach to public space and human engagement, the artist will transform multiple tidelands environmental settings into new visual experiences that engage a broad audience in their daily lives. The artwork will translate into a series of evolving experiences that re-imagine the urban and related tidelands environs. Artists whose visual art practices include spatial inventions and/or installations are strongly encouraged to apply.
A specific site in each of the Port’s five member cities will be determined during the artwork development phase through a collaborative investigation of the tidelands by the artist and the Public Art Office. Examples of potential areas may include shoreline parks, buildings, infrastructure, and promenades.
The artwork will be on public view approximately fifteen months (three months in each member city). Artists will be expected to retrieve all components at the end of the project and may keep any materials purchased and/or fabricated as part of the commission budget and incorporated into the temporary artwork.
BUDGET
The selected artist will receive a $275,000 budget to conceive and realize their artwork, including concept and design development, fabrication as well as installation and de-installation at multiple sites. The budget is all inclusive and must cover all costs.
