ABOUT THE INSTITUTION

Center sodobnih umetnosti Celje (Center for Contemporary Art Celje) is a
not-for-profit organisation founded in 2004 with the main mission to
initiate, develop and promote contemporary visual arts in the local,
regional and international context, as well as to re-articulate and
re-contextualize the heritage of local conceptual and post-conceptual
practices that make the foundations of the Center's activity.

Situated only one hour from the capital city of Ljubljana, and being one of
the most representative institutions for the production and display of
contemporary visual arts in the Stajerska region of Slovenia,  the Center
represents a creative hub devoted to arts, culture and theory, as
experienced in the specific conditions of current social, political, and
economic situation. Under the auspices of the City Council of Celje and its
Cultural Department, the Center has been actively engaged in the
project-based cultural programming in cooperation with the partners across
the region and beyond.

Center for Contemporary Art Celje is a complex of three exhibition venues in
the downtown area of Celje: Galerija sodobne umetnosti (Gallery of
Contemporary Art, since 1993), Likovni salon (Likovni Salon Gallery, since
1963), and Galerija Racka (Racka Gallery, since 2006). One of the Center's
main activities is its Artist-in-Residence programme (up to two months)
initiated in 2005.


ABOUT THE OPEN CALL

Center for Contemporary Art Celje announces the International Open Call for
exhibition project proposals to be held in the Likovni Salon Gallery in
Spring 2009. The applications will be reviewed by a selection team (Nevenka
Sivavec and Irena Cercnik, curators of the Center for Contemporary Art
Celje, and Marko Stamenkovic, independent curator) and the results will be
announced by 9 March 2009.

The Open Call is addressing contemporary visual artists, and
groups/collectives from Slovenia and abroad who are invited to submit a
solo-show proposal. The Call is not limited by any specific topic, and is
open to all media (painting, sculpture, installations, photography, digital
animation, sound-based art, video, interactive and interdisciplinary
projects).  The priority in the selection process will be given to the
recent production that challenges a social environment, engages and interact
with various audiences and/or communities. The Center for Contemporary Art
Celje will provide the travel and accommodation costs for the winning
applicant, printed and electronic invitations for the exhibition's opening,
and will publish an exhibition catalogue.
