Mark for Redaction – Open Call

July 31, 2018 @ 8:00 am - 11:59 pm UTC-5

Free

Deadline to submit: July 31st, 2018.

A group exhibition from October 4 until November 3, curated by Razan Al Salah and Hilal Khalil
at the Flux Factory in New York City, seeks multi-disciplinary forms of contemporary art from
Kweer ( ریوك ,( queer, lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and/or gender non-conforming people who have
ties to what is colloquially known al-‘ālam al-‘arabī ( يبرعلا ملاعلا ,( also known as South West Asia
and North Africa (SWANA) and the respective diaspora ( رجھملا ( to be exhibited in a month-long
exhibition at Flux Factory, New York City.

 

 

 

One side of the conversation is represented in “coming out”, an often cookie-cutter narrative
pushed out by the globalized mainstream. Another side is represented by patriarchal ideologies in
the region which deem “queerness” a western construct and one form of the colonization of our
societies. This exhibition calls for work that adds nuance to this dichotomy through personal and
political work.

 

 

 

 

This can take the form of musical performance, stand-up comedy, sound installation, food art,
dinner party, dance party, karaoke, human megaphone, sidewalk chalking, mail art, chain letter,
mixtapes, site specific installations, flyering, apps, virtual reality technology (oculus rift, Google
cardboard, etc.), web art, workshops, walking tours, t-shirts/merchandise, poetry readings, zines,
film screenings, theatrical performances, as well as any 2D/3D/4D works, etc.
