2019 application deadline: September 1, 2018
Project Anywhere is a global blind peer reviewed exhibition program dedicated to art and artistic research outside traditional exhibition circuits. Although descriptions and images of hosted projects are featured on a dedicated website, Project Anywhere is neither an online exhibition nor a journal. It is instead a vehicle for illuminating artistic projects located at the outermost limits of location-specificity. Project Anywhere is perhaps best imagined as an exhibition comprising the entire globe in which the role of curator is replaced with a peer evaluation system.
Project Anywhere is proudly supported as part of a partnership between the Centre of Visual Arts (University of Melbourne) and Parsons Fine Art (Parsons School of Design, The New School).
Please read our proposal guidelines and evaluation criteria before submitting a proposal for our 2019 global exhibition program.
Deadline for proposal submissions for our 2019 program is September 1, 2018.
2018 global exhibition program:
The Missing Album (Joanne Choueiri)
An ongoing research project that attempts to gather an archive of photographs of Lebanese people living / hiding in their houses during the Beirut Civil War (1975–90).
From Larger to the Smaller Islands (Wangwen and Andrew Stooke)
A durational cross-country walking project that will circumnavigate all 43 of the UK’s tidal islands.
84 (Lunga School)

Elsewhere Tomorrow (Nicolò Krättli & Kaspar Stöbe)
The project proposes to make an image of the present by looking into the sky of tomorrow. This algorithmic painting is calculated from the global stream of data and changes constantly.
The Grid (Annie Morrad & Ian Mcarthur)
A preliminary study exploring sound and cities to forge a triangulated performative and intermittently participatory digital space linking London, Sydney, Chongqing, and New York.
Putting Out (Georgia Banks)
Employs the relationship between reperformance and performance by proxy as a platform for creating a microcosmic set on which particular scenes from the Australian performance art world can be re-enacted.
Cups of Nun Chai (Alana Hunt)
Is at once a search for meaning in the face of something so brutal it appears absurd and an absurd gesture when meaning itself becomes too much to bear
Urban Folk Project (Shilpa Mudbi Kothakota, Sumitra Sunder & Adithya Kothakota)
An initiative to archive Folk art forms in Karnataka and to use elements of these forms to build bodies of works that engage an urban audience with folk art practices.
Soil Series: A Social Drawing (Francesca Fiore And Hillary Wagner)
An ongoing collaboration between artists Francesca Fiore and Hillary Wagner and the rural Appalachian community of Bethel, Ohio.
