Call for Exhibitions

**The International Tapestry City in Aubusson, with the support of Haltra Communities, is launching a call for projects on the theme:**

  
**The Echo Chamber 1925 – 2025, woven space: Woven objects fair, decorative arts paradise or contemporary Period room?**

  
For the past twelve years, the Cité internationale de la tapisserie in Aubusson has been pursuing a policy of creation, promoting this expertise, which is classified as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, and at the same time enriching the contemporary collection of the museum.

Eva Nielsen, Clément Cogitore, Mathieu Mercier, Marie Sirgue, El Seed, Raphaël Barontini, Amélie Bertrand, Thomas Bayrle, in particular, winners of the various calls for projects have created textile works whose scale, deployment and diversity salute tapestry as a contemporary artistic medium.

With the same energy, the creation of two large hangings around the works of JRR Tolkien and Hayao Miyazaki extends the history of textile imaginations in tapestries of monumental proportions. A current public artistic commission "Hommage à George Sand", entrusted to Françoise Pétrovitch, will project the tapestry medium into the world of monumental installation.

The Cité de la tapisserie, in a logic of research and development, continues to enthusiastically explore the artistic writing of its textile identity and deploys the tapestry medium again and elsewhere. As the Cité is currently doing with Gaspar Willmann and his work woven in jacquard, a pictorial homage to a historical figure of the territories of New Aquitaine.

Historically, tapestry carries the program of a story, of an assumed figuration that develops in the interior, domestic space, a subject represented and given to read. The place and decorative function of woven objects are central in the distribution of living spaces. Finally, tapestry, as a living medium of creation, has taken a liking to updating its writing over the course of new models of reality: an echo chamber of images and thoughts of the world. In view of the 100th anniversary, in 2025, of the great international exhibition of decorative arts in Paris, that of 1925, the 2025 call for projects invites artists to think of images woven in constellation on the surfaces of a space.

**Candidates will have to choose one of the following three approaches:**

* Woven Objects Exhibition (a perspective on the author's writing, declined and applied to the surface of a plurality of objects, with the spirit of a unity or a coordinate as we can hear it in textile creation)
* Decorative arts paradise (in a logic of assembly, coordinate know-how and the diversity of materials to build the room of an art of the arts of living)
* Period room of the future (in a prospective dimension of the scenario and fiction – design fiction – which accompanies the decorative ensemble.)

_For all three subjects, particular attention will be paid to the way in which contemporary images and imaginations will be used by candidates in their proposals._

**The first three creators ranked by the Jury will receive respectively:** 

  
* 1st prize €15,000 VAT
* 2nd Winner €10,000 incl. VAT
* 3rd winner €6,000 incl. VAT

Artist-in-Residence Fellowships

44Møen invites applications for a two-week residency from **June 21 to July 7, 2025,** as part of its 2025 program **_Thin Places._**

  
This residency is best suited for artists working with text, performance, still or moving images, research, or sound-based practices. As a culmination of the residency, we invite the selected artist to contribute to a public event, sharing the work developed during the residency as part of their ongoing artistic research.

  
📍 Location: 44Møen, a contemporary art space in a rural setting on the Danish island of Møn, with a rich Fluxus heritage and a strong focus on experimental sound practices.

  
44Møen's 2025 program is curated by South into North (Francesca Astesani and Julia Rodrigues). It unfolds through artist residencies, new commissions, exhibitions and a rich public program focused on sound, all under the conceptual frame of Thin Places.

  
Thin Places are, according to Celtic mythology, sites where the boundary between earthly and spiritual realms is unusually thin and easily crossed. Inspired by this image, the program investigates spaces of mediation where different domains of experience become permeable. By stretching liminal spaces between digital and natural realities, technological and spiritual environments, visible and invisible realms, the project dwells in zones of passage and mediality. Grounded in the Kunsthal as a site of encounter between rural landscape and artistic experimentation, the program proposes ecological thinking as methodology rather than a subject matter: a practice of finding connections between systems - living and non-living - and exploring how different forms of experience meet and co-exist. Engaging with the existential anxieties of current environmental and political collapses,Thin Places navigates between worlds as a way to rehearse alternative epistemologies and ways of inhabiting layered realities.

  
Through a radical questioning of separations - not only between art and life but across artistic disciplines and languages - Fluxus artists explored territories of intersection and exchange. Their embrace of multiplication over originality and pioneering experiments with audio-visual media inspire the program’s focus on technologies of mediation. Sound plays a central role in this investigation. As an invisible yet materially present medium, it inherently challenges our usual categories of visually centered experience. Building on 44Møen's rich heritage of experimental sound practice - from Henning Christiansen's compositions to contemporary sonic investigations - the project explores how acoustic space can create its own form of "thin place," where physical and immaterial realities interweave.

🏡 Accommodation: Newly built private rooms, for single occupancy. Each room is arranged on 2 levels and has its own toilet and shower, desk, built-in wardrobe, and a sleeping space in the loft above the bathroom unit. A large window functions as sitting area overlooking the outdoor greenery. The separate common kitchen is shared with two other artists in residence. 

  
🚲 Mobility: Bikes are available. The residency is in a rural setting, so some transport planning is advised.

  
🎨 Support: **Travel (economy, within EU) and accommodation. Material budget up to 4000 DKK + expenses coverage 2500 DKK per week.** 

Mentorship is offered to follow and help your practice. 

  
🔧 Facilities: Please note that there are no dedicated workshops or atelier facilities. 

  
🛑 Accessibility: Each room is on two levels. If you have any mobility concerns, please reach out for further details.

Residency Open Call - 44Møen 2025 

**Soaring Gardens Artists Retreat in Laceyville, PA, offers visual artists, writers, and composers, and instrumentalists a quiet country setting for residencies to focus on their creative endeavors. Spaces are available from mid-May to mid-September. Soaring Gardens has no fees, makes no demands, and there are no intrusions from the administration—only the studios, gardens, deer, other creatures, and time.** 

  
The residency is located in a farmhouse with an adjacent studio building and in a small nearby church. At any time, there are only a few artists in residence, usually four or five residents at the farmhouse and one at the church. Since residents share the living spaces, we encourage artists to apply as a group (a combination of artistic disciplines is fine), although applications from individuals are also welcome.

Residents are encouraged to have a car to get to Soaring Gardens. There is no public transportation close by. However, transportation will be provided to and from nearby cities for arrival and departure at Soaring Gardens, and to help run some errands during their stay as needed. With the exception of a weekly communal dinner, artists are expected to shop, cook, and clean up after themselves; a gardener maintains the grounds. As the purpose of the residency is to provide time for undisturbed work, no children, pets, or overnight visitors are permitted.

  
Soaring Gardens offers two locations to stay during your residency. The church provides a more intimate, private experience, with no more than two residents staying there at a time. The farmhouse offers a more communal atmosphere, with four to five residents typically staying there and utilizing the studio building next door.

  
**The residency sessions for the 2025 season are as follows:**

4/22 - 5/9: Session I

5/25 - 6/13: Session II

6/15 - 7/4: Session III

7/6 - 7/25: Session IV

7/27 - 8/15: Session V

8/17 - 9/5: Session VI

9/7 - 9/26: Session VII (Church) - single resident 

9/28 - 10/17: Session VIII (Church) - single resident

10/19 - 10/31: Session IX (Church) - single resident

International Residency Programme 2025

**10×10 Photobooks** is pleased to announce a new grant cycle and call for applications as part of its ongoing photobook research grants program to encourage and support scholarship on under-explored topics in photobook history.

For this cycle, we are looking for submissions related to 10×10’s recent **_Flashpoint! Protest Photography in Print_** project. In particular, we invite proposals relating to photobook history from any geography that addresses topics of protest, resistance, or social and cultural conflict from 1950 to the present. The past seventy-five years have been a time of extreme social and cultural transformations including migration, territorial disputes, gender inequity, class divisions, racism, war, and violence, environmental concerns, and other ideological and tribal conflicts which photobooks have engaged with as a tool and/or document of protest.

  
The concept of the photobook is interpreted in the broadest sense possible: classic bound books, portfolios, personal albums, unpublished books, zines, digital media, scrapbooks, posters, or other ephemera. The evaluation of proposals will consider the importance of the proposed topic (how significant and/or unknown is the subject) and the strength of the proposed approach.

  
**Grantee Expectations**

Grantees are expected to produce a presentation (and optionally a paper) within a year of the grant being awarded. Material needs to be in English. The result of the research will be presented and discussed during an online zoom event organized by 10×10 Photobooks.

10×10 will also assist where able and desired with in-progress review, identifying information, making introductions, etc. 

**10×10 Photobooks will award three grants this cycle for 2025-2026 in the amount of $2,500 each**, which will be paid in two increments during the course of the project.
