AS A SATELLITE: Open Call
A joint venture of the Visual Arts Department of The Americas Society in New York City and independent cultural initiatives in the Americas.
AS A SATELLITE invites independent cultural initiatives in Latin America, Canada, and the Caribbean to use The Americas Society as their satellite for the production of exhibitions and event-based projects in New York.
For the purposes of AS A SATELLITE, an independent cultural initiative is defined as an organization run by a collective of artists or by other types of cultural workers, such as curators and critics. It can include non-profits, exhibition spaces, publishing groups, web-based organizations, and other forms of collective practices. Governmental organizations and for-profit galleries do not apply.
The participating independent cultural initiatives will be selected and invited following an open call process. Details on this open call, proposal submission guidelines, and requirements are found on-line at: www.americas-society.org . There are two submission deadlines: November 15, 2002 and January 31, 2003.
