SPECIAL CALL FOR PROJECT PROPOSALS DEADLINE: October 1st, 2007 Dazibao and PRIM, in a joint collaboration, are excited to offer a unique residency for an artist to both produce and exhibit a project. The chosen proposal will consider the specific mandates of both organizations and consequently, will raise issues pertinent to photography and challenge its relationship to sound, video and digital media. The selected artist will have one year to complete his/her project. The equivalent of up to $8 000 in equipment and facilities from PRIM will be accessible to the artist, based on PRIM’s current rates. (PRIM reserves the right to limit the number of hours per domain). PRIM will offer the artist $1 000 in training and/or technical assistance (non transferable, no cash value). For artists living outside of the Montreal area, we will be offering financial assistance of $2 000 in lieu of living expenses. The project will then be presented in the programming of 2008/2009 at Dazibao and will benefit from the same promotional and technical support applicable to the regular programming of the centre. The artist will receive exhibition and reproduction rights in accordance with RAAV and CARFAC rates. YOUR SUBMISSION SHOULD INCLUDE
