About Younger than Storefront       

BEING UNDER 30 IS NOT ONLY A FACT IT IS ALSO A FICTION

CALL FOR PEOPLE

[THAT ARE OR FEEL UNDER 30]


Being under 30 is not only a fact, it is also a state of mind. Storefront for Art and Architecture launched a call for 11 people under 30 whose work would benefit from being exposed through a five-day residency at the Storefront Gallery. As part of the exhibition Being, an exhibition that looks into the history of Storefront as a place to amplify, question, unveil, connect, disrupt, merge, react and experiment with individuals, ideas and things from the past 30 years, Storefront sought 11 individuals whose work represents contemporary radical positions.

 

CONTEXT OF THE RESIDENCY: Being engages with nine actions that reflect Storefront’s mission and how it operates. By creating a series of rooms addressing each of these actions, the installation designed by Bittertang gives understanding to the mechanisms, methodologies and aspirations of an institution dedicated to the production of radical and alternative practices while inviting and enabling the visitor to act. From a waterbed of unfulfilled dreams (containing unsuccessful grant applications, unrealized exhibition proposals or unfulfilled conversations and encounters) where visitors can dream themselves, to a compilation of instructions on how to disrupt the neighborhood, to a TV Broadcast studio installed in the basement that unveils relevant contemporary issues through weekly broadcasts, the exhibition aims to bring together all the individuals invested in the discussion and production of alternative work to propose new ways of action.

 

PARTICIPATION: The artists-in-residence have the opportunity to live, work and play in Storefront’s Gallery for five days during the exhibition. The artists-in-residence work in the corner space of the gallery at Kenmare and Cleveland, which is exposed to the street and will be open to gallery visitors and passersby. Artists-in-residence are expected to adapt to the temperature and weather changes that will take place throughout the course of the exhibition. Artists-in-residence are expected to fully document their work through digital photography and or video and to provide updates to Sf staff on their progress daily for public dissemination through social media. Artists may be asked to participate in public events produced in conjunction with the exhibition.

 

COMPENSATION: All artists receive a $100 fee and a studio space to develop their project within the Storefront exhibition. All completed works produced during the residency will be placed in the exhibition by the curators.

 

WHAT WE SEARCHED FOR: Storefront looked for artists/architects/writers and citizens at large or collectives younger than Storefront, who are interested in engaging in a storefront setting to disseminate their work and mission.

 

Applications are now closed.
