CALL FOR ARTISTS
Augusto
Fine Art is looking for artists to be featured on our
electronic newsletter The
Art Fix .
We are looking for emerging and established painters, illustrators,
photographers, sculptors, glass artists, costume designers,
set designers willing to share a piece of their talent to
enlighten the life of all of us and to showcase their art.
There is not a limitation on the quantity of pieces to submit,
or number of proposals by one artist. There is not a deadline.
However, Augusto
Fine Art reserves all the rights to select visual artwork
to be displayed, and the rate of distribution.
Featured artists will be linked to their websites or to a
contact information web page. No fees or commissions will
be charged to be promoted or as a result of any sales resulting
from this promotion.

Scan your Skin
Book, web site and offline project
deadline: May 31, 2005
Our skin is our vulnerable shell. It protects us and characterizes
each one of us as an individual. Besides its physical attributes,
our skin conveys differences between people; it takes on ancestral,
historical, cultural and political implications. As time flows
on, it carves more signs and meanings on our skin.
SyS wants to explore this territory from different points
of view. Creative personalities will suggest artistic interpretations
of the project message, thus offering their own reading of
the human skin. Photography, graphic arts, the written word;
a bold, abstract approach or a sober and realistic one - each
contribution will be a key component of this multifaceted
jigsaw puzzle. The goal is to build a well-structured picture
of human skin as a concept/research object. The final work
will be published in a book and distributed to selected retailers
all over the world.
Artists, writers, designers and cultural producers: we are
calling you! Send us your work! (Format: 1 to max. 8 pages;
approx. size: 17x24 cm./6.70x9.45 in.). It can be anything
from a photo or photo series/sequence, to graphic work, a
story, an article or a poem.
As the book will include a DVD, please feel free to send us
also multimedia content (sounds, animations, movies, etc.).
We plan to organize a number of offline happenings and events
to support and promote the book, and to link it to an ad-hoc
web site: the "Scan your Skin" online project is
under construction right now (check it out on www.scan-skin.org,
coming soon.) More info: info@scan-skin.org
