If this message is not of interest to you please send it on to artist-run projects that you would like to recommend! Applications for SUPERMARKET 2013 can be made online 21.8–15.9 2012 SUPERMARKET 2013 – Stockholm Independent Art Fair dates 15–17 February 2013 We welcome applications to participate in next year’s international artist-run art fair SUPERMARKET, which will take place on two floors of Kulturhuset in Stockholm, Sweden. Since last year we have chosen to bring forward the application period to increase the possibility for our participants to seek funding. The goal of SUPERMARKET is to provide a showcase for artists' initiatives from all over the world and to create opportunities for new networks in the Swedish and international art scenes. It is also an art fair that strives to offer the visitor an experience, rather than focusing on sales. Artist-run galleries regularly staging public exhibitions in their own exhibition spaces and other artists' initiatives that arrange exhibitions and events with invited artists can apply to exhibit at SUPERMARKET 2013. Individual artists or artists' groups founded only for applying to SUPERMARKET will not be accepted. The theme of the seminars SUPERMARKET TALKS will be Happiness. We do not intend to curate the fair on this theme but you can bear it in mind. We are not looking for exhibition ideas illustrating the theme of Happiness but if you already know examples of art connected to or problematising Happiness, Success etc we are interested to hear about it in your application! Also remember that we and the audience expect the exhibitors to show art and not only documentation or papers. Happiness will also be the theme of the annual magazine which is combined with the fair catalogue. All applicants are welcome to suggest works relating to the theme for inclusion in the publication. Send us low-res images before the end of October and the art editor will contact the ones who we want to include in the magazine. We will continue to arrange the performance art programme RED SPOT and the network meetings programme SUPERMARKET MEETINGS. If you are interested in taking part please let us know. The application is made on-line. You create an account and register on our website. Your account will be used for submitting material if you are selected to participate. To create your account and for further information about SUPERMARKET go to www.supermarketartfair.com Finally, Supermarket is one of the partners of AIM, and therefore we forward this invitation to Kassel: Dear colleagues, Artists’ Initiatives’ Meetings (AIM) is a European network of artist-run initiatives and spaces to lighten our visibility in the art world. So far we are a bunch of initiatives who met in Berlin, Copenhagen, Stockholm and Mallorca. During Documenta13 in Kassel we will hold our first open meeting from the 10th to the 15th of September 2012. We kindly invite you to join our open conference at the Art Academy Kassel on the 12th of September 2012 and to participate in an exhibition at POT Space in Kassel (pot.top-ev.de). At the conference we will introduce a prototype of a web based directory of artist-run initiatives worldwide. We would like the participants to give us feedback. You're also welcome to suggest topics for the conference. For the exhibition we ask you to bring or send a model of your exhibition space in the size of a banana box with miniature art works in it. Please confirm your participation to [email protected] until the 15th of August 2012 (or as soon as possible) and we get back to you with further details. Unfortunately, we can't provide any travel costs or accommodation but on request we will send you an official invitation letter to support your possibilities for funding at your local institutions. Further information about the program will follow after August 15th. You are welcome to forward this invitation to artist initiatives and project spaces.
