Open call - 'Insert There' for Fringe Arts Bath

'Insert There' invites you to envision where a piece of art work you have made could be placed. It draws inspiration from David Reed’s ‘Two Bedrooms in San Francisco’, in which the artist inserted images of his paintings into scenes from Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo as well as Mel Chin and the GALA Committee’s ‘In the Name of Place’, a project in which artworks were created and surreptitiously installed into the set of the television series Melrose Place. To make a submission, select one of your artworks. Choose a location - whether a renowned museum, a public park, an urban space, or even a scene from film or TV - and 'insert' your artwork into that space using digital or analogue methods. Within this location, your artwork can be re-scaled to whatever size you would like it to be. Submissions must include a final composite image of their artwork integrated into the chosen location, created by either digital methods (seamlessly editing the artwork into the location) or analogue techniques (using physical collage or similar approaches). The exhibition is part of Fringe Arts Bath Festival 2025 (FaB), with 20+ exhibition & project call-outs forming the FaB Festival programme, 23 May - 7 June 2025 in Bath, UK. FaB is a test-bed for new ideas, a platform for early-career curators & artists, and those who prefer to operate outside of the gallery-based arts scene. FaB aims to raise the profile of contemporary visual arts in Bath and beyond. FaB Festival is a free, two week festival putting art in unusual places in unexpected ways for people to happen across and interact with, with exhibitions, interventions and events based in Bath, UK. Everyone can submit, from anywhere in the world. Deadline Friday 11 April at 23:59 GMT. Submission is free. If you are selected, we will ask for £8 or £5 student or unwaged as a contribution (£0 for those who really can’t afford it) and/ or some of your time - read their FAQs for details.
