In 2009, Rhizome will award seven commissions with fees ranging from $3000-$5000.
<p>This year, Rhizome has expanded our scope, formerly focused strictly
on Internet-based art to encompass the broad range of practices that
fall under new media art. </p>
<p>This includes projects that creatively engage new and networked
technologies to works that reflect on the impact of these tools and
media in a variety of forms. With this expanded format, commissioned
works can take the final form of online works, performance, video,
installation or sound art. Projects can be made for the context of the
gallery, the public, the web or networked devices. </p>
<p>This
year, all applicants will be reviewed by a selected jury and 2 awards
will be granted through Rhizome's membership in a community vote. Only
the jury and members can view proposals.</p>
<p>Proposal submission takes place online. The deadline is midnight on Monday, March 31, 2008.</p><br>More info: <a href="http://rhizome.org/commissions/">http://rhizome.org/commissions/</a><p><br></p>-- <br>Luis Silva<br>
