International TECHstyle Art Biennial (ITAB)
San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles
San Jose, CA
August 7 – October 21, 2012
The International TECHstyle Art Biennial (ITAB) is a juried exhibition of work by artists merging fiber media with new information and communication technologies in their artistic processes, as a medium of artistic expression, and/or in the content of their work. Leveraging its location in Silicon Valley, ITAB serves as the premiere platform for introducing the work of artists exploring the intersection of fiber and technology to a global community that assembles — virtually and in the real world — at San Jose's Biennial Zero1: 2012 01SJ Biennial.
As fibers, textiles, and the language of textile patterning have achieved wide attention in contemporary art practice—often as a means of evoking an experience that is both historical and contemporary—ITAB seeks to expose and explore the tensions between and among works by artists using fiber media whose work employs diverse artistic disciplines. We welcome submissions from artists in the fields of architecture, fashion, fiber art, installation art, interior design, new media, painting, sculpture, etc. Artwork demonstrating a keen understanding and mastery of the aesthetic, structural/technical, and semiotic possibilities of fiber and of digital, computerized, or networked information and communication technologies are the hallmark of the San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles’ International TECHstyle Art Biennial.
1. Artists may submit up to three (3) works.
2. Entries must be original work completed after January 1, 2009.
3. Artists must be 18 years of age or older.
4. Collaborative work will be considered as a single entry. Artists submitting both collaborative and individual works must apply separately.
5. Work must not exceed 10 feet in any single dimension.
6. Installation pieces must state total space requirement on entry form.
7. Work must be original in concept and design and not be the result of a class or workshop. Student work is accepted if it meets the previous statement.
8. All work must be either fiber in content or executed in a fiber technique.
Entry Fee: $35.00

“New Beat” International Student Concours
Deadline: 31 October 2011 (ONLINE)
“New Beat”
International Student Concours
Fashion Gallery
The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
Hung Hom, Kowloon, Hong Kong
People's Rep. of China
5 Dec 2011 – 18 Jan 2012
As one of the oldest forms of technology known to human kind, textile technology (making of cloth) has a long history of invention. This exhibition celebrates new explorations in textiles and creative problem solving propelled by curiosity – the synthesis of a ‘new beat.’
New Beat is a juried competition featuring select works by international design students who demonstrate inspired creativity through material manipulation. Resist dyeing, such as shibori, is a specific form of traditionally patterning cloth via manipulation and dye. Its versatility combined with modern technology has gained popular appeal with contemporary artists, including major fashion icons Issey Miyake, Oscar de la Renta and Prada. Bridging this gap between traditional and contemporary poses an interesting challenge, one that the truly imaginative and creative seize as an opportunity to travel new paths in textile’s future.
Entry Fee: $15 per entry
Up to 3 entries may be submitted per artist or collaborative group
