PAVILION:
INTERMIX04 3rd - 5th NOVEMBER 2004
Background
Pavilion is a
Leeds based company
with twenty years experience of engaging with the visual arts and primarily
engages with photography and photography-related new media including artist’s
film and video. It investigates the
relationship between media art product, the public realm, audience and the
social context in which it is generated, showcased and understood.
Pavilion is interested
in challenging practitioners and thinkers to push the boundaries of their own
practice, and keen to disseminate critical understanding of the resulting
product and ephemera through proactive discussion, debate and engagement with
its audiences.
Intermix is
Pavilion’s annual programme of artist’s film & video, showcased as a
continuous loop during the Leeds International Film Festival. The programme features work made
by established and emerging artists from the
UK and
abroad. In 2004, the
programme will be programmed by Pavilion’s Artistic Director and Projects
Manager.
Context &
Brief Overview
As one of the
fastest growing cities in the UK,
Leeds enjoys a
buoyant economy and is often referred to as the regional capital of
Yorkshire and
Humberside. With this growth
comes the creation of jobs, a spectacular rise of city centre living
accommodation, bars, restaurants and other sites for social interaction. All this makes for a fast paced, hectic
city lifestyle.
With this in
mind Pavilion is looking to present a respite to the city, a place to
contemplate and relax during the lunch hour or in between shopping. The
selection of artists’ films and videos will examine and interrogate the theme of
Human Presence; this may be within the city environment or beyond. We are
looking for works that can be shown on a single screen, as part of a show reel.
Currently the
funding for Intermix04 means that we can not offer a fee for showing works.
However, we can offer profile for the selected works which will be shown within
the context of a well established film festival and be presented to the public
through professional marketing and promotion.
To submit
video/films for selection please send your work on DVD (no other
format will be accepted), along with a CV and a brief (100 word) statement about
the work you are submitting to:
