Compete FluxusMuseum Prize for Experimental Video
Opportunity Description
International Deadline: January 15, 2025 – After its successful debut FluxusMuseum Prize for Experimental Video is now in its second year.
Over the duration of this year’s prize, €45,000 will be given to participants, with a portion used to support the development of their projects initially and the remainder awarded as prizes at the exhibition’s end.
FluxusMuseum Prize for Experimental Video will be exhibited between June – September 2025 in The FluxusMuseum gallery. Selected works will also be shown on other FluxusMuseum platforms such as FMTV (FluxusMuseumTV).
ELIGIBILITY
Open to artists worldwide. Works must be original and have not yet been publicly screened.
FluxusMuseum encourages applications across art forms, whether you’re a visual artist, dancer, performance artist, film maker, animator, writer, actor, musician or none of the above, we look forward to considering your proposals.
We welcome all proposals which are in the experimental spirit of Fluxus, but not in any way bound by any particular understanding of Fluxus; proposals do not need to reference Fluxus directly in any way. In our selection process we focus on the experimental and anomalous; works deviating from the expected norms of narrative structure; works with originality, strong visual style and fresh spirit.
The finished work you are proposing must:
- Be a single channel film able to be shown on a screen/monitor or a projector
- Be new, original work
- Be between 1 and 15 minutes in length.
BENEFITS & AWARDS
20-40 proposals will be selected from this initial application and those artists will be awarded €600 each to assist them in executing their proposal. The finished works will then be featured in our gallery space from June – September 2025 as well as on our online platforms. FluxusMuseum will then award remaining cash prizes towards the end of the exhibition period.
FEES
We welcome works in progress as proposals for this new work. There are no submission fees.
