Ear/Eye is a new Witty Books project aimed at creating a dialogue between a visual artist and a sound artist through the publication of limited edition audio cassette + book.
- Who is eligible to participate in the Ear/eye award
call?
The open call is addressed to visual artists and sound artists interested
in creating a dialogue between these two art forms.
- Do artists have to submit their
works as already paired?
No, this is not necessary. It is also possible to submit a single
visual arts entry or a single music entry. The idea is to create a
spontaneous dialogue between two different artists. At the same time, artists that already work together are welcome to apply.
- Must the projects submitted be
unpublished?
Yes we prefer to publish two unpublished works.
