7a*11d announces a call for submissions for its 5th International
Festival of Performance Art. Organized by an unincorporated
non-profit group of artists, 7a*11d presents a series of performance
art events and artist projects in a festival setting. Our purpose is
to offer a professional showcase for new and progressive performative
works that fall outside the traditional boundaries of established
genres of theatre, dance, music etc. Artist organizers will select
emerging and established artists of the highest quality from around
the world. We will consider a wide range of work, and are committed
to presenting the breadth and depth of performance art as a genre. We
pay artist fees and endeavour to subsidize travel.
PLUS:
D2D

documentation. Can't come to the Festival? We still want to see your

tapes submitted will be available for screening during the festival,
and selected tapes will be curated into a screening program. Artist
fees will be paid for those selected for screening.
