For those of you who follow, are, or have in the past been engaged with
artist-run centres or collectives or artist-initiated and organized
projects, we are seeking submissions to a book about this milieu; the book
will be a kind of profile, snapshot, cross-section with many short texts
(3-500 words) by many many people (100+).
In particular we are looking for challenging, imaginative, future-oriented
texts. It has always been the case that artist-initiated activities suffer
extraordinary pressures (financial, administrative) but we are feeling that
we are on the cusp of a kind of sea change in which artists work differently
and have different organizational support needs; that is what we hope the
book will address.
Please visit the book website:
