Interfictions Auction – Call to Artists
We thought you might like to know that The Interstitial Arts Foundation has just announced the 2009 Interfictions Auction to benefit the IAF and the Interfictions anthology series of new interstitial fiction.
They are inviting artists, crafters, jewelers, musicians, designers, in fact anyone who loves to create art to come and be inspired by the stories of Interfictions, and bringing your creativity, your boundary-breaking creations, and your really cool stuff!
They are inviting artists to create unique portable and wearable art, based on short stories from the exciting new anthology, Interfictions 2 , or from the first volume. It’s a unique opportunity for artists to get a sneak peek at the forthcoming anthology and to put their talent to good use for this year’s fundraiser, which will go live concurrent with the publication of Interfictions 2 in November, 2009.
The only limitation is that donated pieces must be easily worn or carried: it could be jewelry, bags, scarves, small paintings, clothing, calligraphy . . . even songs! The key is to think small and/or portable. Each piece of art must be directly inspired by an Interfictions story. Check out the Interfictions 2 Auctions FAQ for more ideas and information.
This is a chance for a unique collaboration between writers and artists, a platform for a dialogue between creators in different mediums, meeting at the conjunction of words and art - and bringing together a community of people who refuse to be categorized. Please help us to fund another year of art and words in the interstices of vision, ranging outside the narrow limits of genre limitation to create something new for all.
To learn more about the auction, how you can help to contribute your art, and to find a story from Interfictions 2 to inspire you, please go to the Interfictions Auction Call to Artists web page.
