From 14th – 27th April 2011, Surface’s large gallery floor will be transformed into a screening space for a two-week exhibition exploring emerging talents in contemporary film, video art and animation.
We are now seeking artists, filmmakers and creativities to submit short videos for selection.
The theme of the exhibition is open as we prepare to curate a diverse screening programme that explores the spectrum of the moving image medium. The only specification for submission is that films are no longer than 30minutes in length and are suitable to be shown on a large screen projection.
There is no fee to submit entries, however if your artwork is selected Surface Gallery will charge a £20 fee (10% discount for students) to take part in the exhibition. This fee will cover hire of the gallery space, admin, marketing, tech and utility costs during the two-week period. If your piece is selected it will be given dedicated slots within the daily screening programme. There is also the opportunity to give a short artist talk on your film piece if you are interested.
