CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS FROM CANADIAN ARTISTS - Momenta Biennalle
Deadline: May 14, 2024
MOMENTA is launching its call for submissions for its 2025 edition. The Biennale invites
Canadian* artists and artist collectives, emerging and established, to submit a project to show us
their works connected with the Biennale’s theme, whether at the ideation or the production stage.
We are looking for works that explore the potentialities of missing images to renew
narratives relating to time, history, and the world. We wish to investigate multiple
perspectives including, but not limited to, invisibilization, infiltration, erasure, fugitivity,
hospitality, solidarity, archipelagic thinking, decolonization, new narratives, mechanisms
of exclusion, hybridization, etc.
We are interested in works that involve the notion of the image, including installations,
experiential works, and other forms. We will pay special attention to works that are
new or have not been exhibited in Quebec and/or in Tiohti’á:ke / Mooniyang /
Montreal.
From a perspective of openness and self-reflection, MOMENTA aspires to adopt a
flexible and caring attitude. We therefore invite artists from a variety of horizons, origins,
and career stages to submit a project. In addition, applicants who are experiencing
challenges supplying materials in the form requested may contact our team at
exposition@momentabiennale.com to make special arrangements for making a
submission.
MOMENTA also pays particular attention to eco-responsibility and encourages artists to
submit proposals that are respectful of and sensitive to environmental issues.
