Call for Submissions - Art in Unusual Spaces
Art in Unusual Places is a scheme that makes empty shop units and city-centre spaces in Leeds available for use by artists. Spaces range in size, scale and location and include fully accessible units, shop windows and hoardings. The programme began in December with window exhibitions in units in Leeds Shopping Plaza, on Lands Lane and 42 New Briggate that will run until the end of February.
As of March 2010, Art in Unusual Spaces will have a number of spaces in the city centre available for artistic activity. This will include those mentioned above as well as a 22,000 square foot space on the top floor of Leeds Shopping Plaza that was previously TK Maxx.
If you have an idea for an exhibition, piece of work or project that would be suitable for the spaces available then we want to hear from you. We particularly welcome proposals for projects that respond to the context of the scheme and the spaces in some form. The scheme is currently unable to pay exhibition costs or fees but all spaces are rent and rate free to artists.
If you would like to take part in the second wave of exhibitions and events beginning in March then register your interest by completing and returning a proposal form by 10th February 2010. Details can be seen on the 'Get Involved' section of www.artinunusualspaces.co.uk.
Art in Unusual Places is a partnership project between Leeds City Council, the business community and cultural sector.
