Open Call for Artists - Utopia Dystopia, Fringe Arts Bath

Image Credits: New dawn, new day Geoff Dunlop; Glacier Ester Vonplon

Free submissions - email utopiadystopia@fringeartsbath.co.uk

Utopia Dystopia is an ambitious series of exhibitions and events planned for the city of Bath during 2016. This creative initiative is inspired by the 500th anniversary of the publication of Utopia, Thomas More's reflections on the idea of an ideal society. Since 1516, the year of Utopia's release, the world has witnessed countless attempts to establish a perfectly ordered community, in reality as well as in print. Yet the frequent outcome of such ambitions has been the decay of Utopia into Dystopia. From no-place to bad-place. In modern times the two concepts seem inseparable. FaB16 is inviting artists in all media to particiate in a series of imaginative responses to the themes of utopia or dystopia, or both. The FaB projects are being complemented, or supported, by events involving other Bath-based cultural organisations, including Bath Fringe, Bath Spa University, the Holburne Museum and Komedia. The key exhibition and performance venue is Walcot Chapel during FaB16 (27th May - 12th June), for several decades one of Bath's most popular locations for contemporary art. Artworks of all kinds are invited for submission, whether image, object or sound, moving or still, interior or exterior. We are also keen to recieve submissions from artists interested in transforming the space, initiating live events, performances or workshops. Deadline for submissions: 14.03.16 Curated by Geoff Dunlop with Sophie Erin Cooper
