CALL FOR PROPOSALS: ARTPRIZE 2010

As a part of our commitment to groundbreaking creative practices and
the
advancement of artistic careers, the Urban Institute for Contemporary
Arts
(UICA) invites artists to submit proposals to ArtPrize 2010, an
international
exhibition featuring the worldÆs largest art prize.
UICA is seeking proposals for all types of media, especially
site-specific
work and outdoor sculpture.
Last year, $449,000 was awarded to artists and more than 334,219 votes
were
cast during the 16-day event. ArtPrize is a radically open competition
and
citywide exhibition. ArtPrize is open to all media and is available to
any
artist who can secure an approved location to show their work.
This year, UICA is one of six Exhibition Centers for ArtPrize and is
the only
Institutional Sponsor. UICA will offer 30+ gallery spaces for
exhibitions by
ArtPrize artists, at two locations. All work for UICA will be juried by
professional curators.
