Open Call

Artists who wish to present and discuss their current projects at FOTOHOF are invited to submit their work. Only one artistic project can be submitted, which will be presented at the FOTOHOF>CALLING event. The project can be in the process of being developed, or already finalised. The submitted work should not be older than 3 years and should not have been shown in institutional exhibitions before. The FOTOHOF team will draw up a shortlist of 23 artists from the submissions, which will be published on calling.fotohof.at. From this pre-selection, ten positions will be invited to Salzburg for the event on 5^th of October 2024.

The FOTOHOF>CALLING event is primarily intended to increase the visibility of still relatively unknown artistic propositions. For this reason, the central focus of the selection will not be on works that have already been presented in an official exhibition context (in museums, galleries, festivals). This restriction does not apply to projects presented in the context of final student presentations at universities or residency programs.

In addition to personal information, a project description (max. 1500 characters), a biography (max. 900 characters) and up to 12 images (max. 2 MB per file, JPEG, long edge 1500px, 75dpi) must be submitted. Please name the images with project title-01, project title-02 etc. to ensure the desired sequence. No spaces or special characters in the file name. If the submission is selected for the planned publication, the FOTOHOF team will contact you at a later date regarding high-resolution, printable data.

The images and texts submitted will be used for the publication and website.

Yes, FOTOHOF will cover the costs of travelling and accommodation for invited artists. Up to 200 euros can be reimbursed upon presentation of the original receipts.
