Galerija GT and FAMUL STUART new media international exhibition is dedicated to art students and European emerging young artists. This year's event is the third edition of the international new media arts exhibition, the first one was organised in year 2004 at the occasion of Slovenian joining the European Union.

The call 2004/05 was not limited on any theme; its aim was to start a process of net-building, to promote dialogue between young people from different EU countries, to open a communication platform on intercultural basis.

The call 2005/06, was more orientated and was aiming and searching for answers, how can a young artist's vision and sensibility contribute to European diversity and pluralism. The call was inviting young artists to participate in a special theme: Ljubljana (Maribor, Nova Gorica...)??? What (Who, Where) is that? or to submit an Open theme work. The final event for this years edition will happen in June 2006. The part of the final event will be a result of collaboration between Galerija GT, FAMUL STUART and Grace Schwindt. Grace was a participant of 2004/05 eu-stuart.si edition, invited to contribute a project to the special theme of 2005/06, as all the submissions were made for the Open theme.

THE CALL FOR eu-stuart.si 2006/07
The call for the 3rd edition of eu-stuart.si invites young artists to participate in a special theme: Identity, or to submit an Open theme work.

The works must be submitted in the format appropriate for screenings (see Categories a,b,c). Open media submissions (d) will be treated specially, regarding the special demands and the possibilities of realisation in particular show spaces.

CONDITIONS OF PARTICIPATION:

Theme CATEGORIES:
A. Special theme: IDENTITY
B. Open theme

THE SPECIAL THEME:
IDENTITY
In everyday life we meet different identities. Also our identity changes, adapts, transforms,… Personal identity deals with questions about ourselves, …our problemes, persistence question, identity through time. But the spectrum of the word identity is much wide and relates more than just personal identity. There are social, political, philosophical, artistic,….identities. So there is a lot of different views on identity. Does your view fit in, probably it does, so widen the spectrum than.

The above is not in any way a suggestion how to deal with this year's theme. The theme is simply "IDENTITY". We expect diverse answers in diverse media and modes. Short street interviews with people. OK. A monologue into a camera? A reflection, a commentary of a resident? A research of available literature, maps, encyclopaedia, theory? A SF? A documentary? A computer game? OK.

Length CATEGORIES*:
Applicants can submit their work in requested formats in the following categories:

a. 1 minute clip (video, animation)
b. 2-5 min (short film, video or animation)
c. 6-15 min (short film, video or animation)
d. Length undefined (open media - audio/video installation, interactive computer work, web project)

*-The first criteria for selection will be the quality of submitted works. However, the quality, the number and the length of submitted works in a particular category will affect the number of selected works in each category. Open media submissions will be treated specially, regarding the special demands and the possibilities of realisation in particular show spaces.
