Call
for artworks
In 1843 the author and illustrator J.J. Grandville took a satirical look at his contemporaries
and their desire to consume goods that are said to live up to the promises of social, cultural and technical utopias. Grandville’s
“Un autre monde” has been handed down to us as a fascinating political farce of a brave new world.
We would like to invite students of the Angewandte to think “another world” with artistic means
in a visual and/or audio-visual form and to make it available for the digital exhibition platform “Carousel”.
“Another
world” asks about the opportunities to think critically about art, culture, society, politics, economy and science and how
we can use the current institutional application, among other things. understand in the form of technology. Which spaces open
up in times of lockdown and social distancing, which forms of critique can be transferred to digital and which materials are
available for artistic creation?
A jury will select around twenty works from the submissions, which
will be shown in the digital space on the homepage of base Angewandte. The students, whose work is selected, will receive
a small prize money.
Submission
The submission (photography, graphics, sound
recording, typography, video, ...) will be handled via the base application “Portfolio” (
base.uni-ak.ac.at/portfolio/):

Technical Framework
The view of the images/videos
on the homepage of base Angewandte (
base.uni-ak.ac.at) is always adapted to the monitor
or device used (responsive web design) – the image section is scaled accordingly. Ideally, the pictorial representation concentrates
on the centre of the picture and there are corresponding tolerances for cropping the picture. In addition, text is placed
on the bottom left of the image.
With the exception of “play” and “pause”, audio and video offer
no further control elements for controlling the audio-visual contributions (including fast-forwarding).
