Left and right - 左右 - links und rechts
Left as leaving something, left as leftist, art gratuit, art in public space,
street art, theft and inspiration, left China, Austro Sino leftists, history
left, media left, left Austria, the instant. Right as right, as right side,
right as conservative, the one part of Yin Yang, right to do so, fundamental
normative rules.
The Austro Sino Arts Program, for its 4th annual exhibition, calls for artwork
with focus China or a wider China-European context.
After an initial exhibition at the 798 Festival (September), the exhibition is
planed to travel over the course of 6 weeks from Beijing - Chengdu - Shenzhen.
Thus the works have to be moveable. Videos will be displayed in moving theater
form along the way. Images will be printed on roll out canvases or paper, to be
left as permanent footprint at exhibition location or anonymous places.
1st “RIGHT” the pre-curated exhibition, showing selected artworks in each
location starting in Beijing.
2nd, “LEFT”, artist can send artworks from remote by Internet which will be a
response to the current location of the show. We will make images available
from each location and send to selected artist and they can "left" their reply.
The idea is “left” to print out the printable parts of the exhibition on the go
and “left” the exhibition in official and unofficial places, printout on paper
or canvas and fixed on walls in, small, medium, large, extra large villages.
We accept art works in the form of video, music as well as wall based printable
materials (e.g. photo, printable representations of painting/drawings/sketches,
writing).
For each selected artist we will have a production budget available, each
artist will receive 10 catalogues for free. ASAP will make photos and
dimensions available to each selected artist, for location specific fitting of
the artworks in public space. Please consider, ASAP can not make funds
available for your traveling or accommodation.
All text and written materials will be copied into google translator. Googled
translated English can be found anywhere in China. We will reverse this with
Chinese.
By participating in 2nd, “LEFT” exhibition, you explicitly agree and accept
that your artwork can be copied unlimitedly for cause, extend of this
exhibition. ASAP guarantees that it will not sell your work without your prior
agreement.
Information to previous exhibitions can be found on
