Online May 1 - May 31, 2025

  
For this online group exhibition, we invite artists to submit any artwork that was inspired by their sense of home. Whether good, or bad, a home base shapes the person we become. Home not only means a physical place; it can also be a state of mind. The feel of a fabric, the scent of a spice, or sound of a note can bring us back to a time and place.

  
We will accept artwork in any medium, from any year, and any size you are willing to ship to a potential buyer.

Memories From The House - Open Call For Group Exhibition

The photographic, digital and video works that will be selected for the collective exhibition scheduled for July 2025 and curated by LoosenArt will be focused on the theme of rites. Here the rite is understood as a recurrent practice, conducted with seriousness and commitment through a prescribed procedure that gives it validity.

  
Since the origins of rites among primitive and tribal peoples we have visual testimonies of their executions, and images sometimes become indispensable means to symbolize deities, spirits and other supernatural entities to make the forces they evoke concrete.

  
For centuries art has been strongly linked to ritual practices, and even today, through the documentary function of new media, we have evidence of performance and artistic practices related to them.

  
The call is open to works related to ritual practices that testify to its wider functions, from sacred to social ones, and from the intimistic and family-biographical to psychological and introspective ones.

REAKTOR is seeking works and mindsets that strongly reference the present moment, making them candidates for timeless presence in the 7th edition of Potenziale. Here, reference to the present is not understood as conformity to prevailing interpretations but as an acute perception of being aware.

  
For this edition, the open call is specifically for projects designed for the garden, inviting works that engage with the space in a meaningful way. The open call is addressed mainly to artists from Central European countries, encouraging perspectives that reflect the region’s unique cultural and historical contexts. A key element to consider is the fence separating the garden from an adjacent construction site—projects should thoughtfully respond to or integrate this boundary into their conceptual approach.

A budget of up to €3,500 and technical support from the REAKTOR production team is granted.

“A discovery guide for recovery” – a project run by Sineglossa (IT), with NGO Territory (UA) and Fundacja Ziemniaki i (PL), co-funded by Creative Europe – has just launched an open call for six international artists (including two Ukrainians) interested in co-designing with Ukrainian communities a “non-touristic” guidebook on the present and future of Ukraine.

  
Applicants are called to design unconventional tours to discover the Ukrainian region of Bakota, in Western Ukraine, by involving the inhabitants in a process of recovering memories of the past, raising awareness on opportunities and problems of the present, foreseeing possible future scenarios. Artists will be hosted for a two-week art residency at Bakota Hub, a cultural centre in Horaivka, Khmelnytskyi Oblast (Southwestern of Ukraine), created on the basis of a former abandoned school and used in the two past years as a shelter for internally displaced people. The tours will be printed and published in an international guidebook dedicated to non-tourists, those who do not travel to collect postcards but to discover the authentic spirit of a territory. The publication will be designed in the style of a traditional travel guide with a mixture of essays, images and image essays. The texts will be in Ukrainian and English. The art direction and design of the publication will be overseen by a graphic design studio or individual designer. It will be published together with Fundacja Ziemniak i.

The selected artists will receive a 3.000 EUR grant to produce their tour, two-week hospitality at - and travel to - Bakota Hub (Ukraine), their artwork featured in an international publication, the training on the Non-tourism methodology through a co-design workshop in July in Warsaw, artistic curatorial and tutoring feedback sessions, network and exchange opportunities with other residency artists at Bakota Hub in Ukraine.

CEE Animation Forum

"Change" is an umbrella term that can encompass a wide variety of changes in people's lives. A radical change, new circumstances in the environment or in life, something new and unfamiliar to which one should or even must adapt. Sometimes this happens quickly and effortlessly, but equally, this transition to something else may only succeed after a period of hesitation or refusal – until one adapts, allows oneself to be persuaded, or realizes that one's old attitudes, previous knowledge, and experiences are no longer getting one anywhere and are losing touch.

  
What does that mean? Something is changing, is underway, and will require us to adopt new behaviors, and we don't yet know exactly what that will look like.

  
In recent years, and especially in the past year 2024, many people have experienced very strong and diverse "changes," upheavals, transformations, and escalations in the world, in politics, and in everyday life. Something is in the air, something is on the way; clouds are looming on the horizon. A time of anxious waiting until the new clearly reveals itself and manifests itself so that we can react. Is it something good, something positive – or will it pose a threat to us, does it portend a shift to new living conditions?

  
Climate change, wars, political instability, the loss of friends or close relatives, currency devaluation, career reorientation, illness, a new phase of life with an "open ending" – many areas of our lives are currently shifting and changing, increasingly and simultaneously – and fears, uncertainties, and mistakes are to be expected. On the other hand, of course, new knowledge is also emerging; young people are experiencing the success of their ideas or the realization of long-held dreams; we are experiencing confirmation of courageous attempts in our daily lives. It is becoming increasingly important to maintain a positive and forward-looking attitude to life and to enjoy life!

  
The theme of "changes" offers a broad scope for a photographic representation of the Hoepfner Foundation's new 2025 photo competition.

  
The painter Richard Oelze, one of the leading artists of the "New Objectivity" movement, created his famous painting "Expectation" in 1935/36\. It depicts a crowd dressed in winter clothing—with their backs to the viewer—looking down from a slope into a vast plain, waiting. A diffuse landscape bathed in a charged, stormy light. Something hangs in the air, clouds gather on the horizon. This is perhaps how one might feel in light of the great unrest in the world. Something is about to change; we are not entirely optimistic about what these "changes" will mean for us and our usual lives.

  
Let's stay optimistic and creative! Good luck and success to all participants in their photographic implementation of this theme!
