L’Officina della Pace

PROGETTO INTERNAZIONALE DI ARTE POSTALE E DIGITALE

Cartolina d’arte

“La pace non è un sogno: può diventare realtà,

ma per costruirla bisogna essere capaci di sognare.” Nelson Mandela

L’Assessorato alla Cultura del Comune di Quiliano, in collaborazione con il SACS (Spazio Arte Contemporanea
Sperimentale) e la Biblioteca Civica A. Aonzo, organizza un progetto di mail art dal tema “L’Officina
della Pace”, dedicato alla cartolina d’arte.
Il tema scelto, “L’Officina della Pace”, consente la massima libertà creativa al fine di valorizzare gli
aspetti più geniali e sorprendenti della mail art.
Gli artisti sono, quindi, invitati a creare una cartolina dalle dimensioni non superiori ai cm. 10x15 (pena l’esclusione
dalla manifestazione).
Si accetteranno solo cartoline con interventi artistici e non dovranno essere spedite in busta.
L’opera dovrà essere inviata all’indirizzo:

SACS - Comune di Quiliano

Località Massapè 21

17047 Quiliano (SV) – ITALIA

____________________________________________________________________

Digital art - cartolina digitale
Il SACS, come consuetudine, affianca alla mail art una sezione dedicata alle immagini digitali. Anche per
questa sezione il tema è “L’Officina della Pace” nell’intento di lasciare la massima libertà agli artisti.
Per quanto riguarda la Digital art gli artisti potranno inviare un’opera in forma digitale esclusivamente per
posta elettronica all’indirizzo:

info@sacsarte.net o tramite link per eseguire il download

L’opera dovrà essere in formato jpg con risoluzione tra i 700kb e i 900kb.

____________________________________________________________________

Gli artisti partecipanti alla manifestazione dovranno obbligatoriamente indicare sul retro della cartolina:
• nome e cognome
• indirizzo
• città
• nazione
• indirizzo email
sia per quanto riguarda la cartolina cartacea sia per quanto riguarda la cartolina digitale (nell’email).
Chiediamo di scrivere i dati in modo chiaro, possibilmente in stampatello, così da inserire e aggiornare in
modo corretto tutti i contatti nel nostro database e realizzare il materiale pubblicitario.
E’ possibile partecipare sia alla sezione della cartolina d’artista sia a quella della cartolina digitale - digital art.

Le opere dovranno pervenire entro e non oltre il 15 luglio 2018.

La mostra si terrà nei mesi di settembre/ottobre nella Biblioteca Civica A. Aonzo.
A partire dall’inaugurazione della mostra sarà possibile realizzare il download del catalogo digitale della mostra
dal sito (www.sacsarte.net) e dal profilo Facebook (www.facebook.com/sacs.arte) del SACS.
I lavori inviati non saranno restituiti, ma resteranno a totale disposizione del Comune di Quiliano e quindi
entreranno a far parte dell’archivio del SACS del Comune di Quiliano.
Grazie a tutti anticipatamente per l’attenzione.
Con preghiera di massima diffusione.
Cordiali saluti.

Workshop of Peace

INTERNATIONAL MAIL ART AND DIGITAL ART PROJECT

Art postcard

“Peace is not a dream: it can become reality,

but you have to be able to dream If you want to keep it.” Nelson Mandela

The Councillorship for Culture of the Municipality of Quiliano, in collaboration with SACS (Space of Contemporary

Experimental Art) and the Public Library A. Aonzo, organizes a Mail Art Project on topic “Workshop of

Peace”, dedicated to Art Postcard.

The theme, “Workshop of Peace”, gives the Artists all the creative freedom they need to let us appreciate

the most brilliant and wonderful aspects of Mail Art.

So, we invite the Artists to create a postcard which size will not be larger than cm. 10x15 (any larger object

will be excluded from the project).

We will only accept postcards with artistic works and they have not to be sent in an envelope.

You have to send to the following address:

SACS - Comune di Quiliano

Località Massapè 21

17047 Quiliano (SV) – ITALIA

____________________________________________________________________

Digital art – Digital Art Postcard

SACS, as usual, dedicates a section to digital images, too. Also for this section the theme will be “Workshop

of Peace” with the purpose to give the Artists the highest level of freedom.

The Artists which are interested in Digital Art have to send their digital artwork only by e-mail to the address:

info@sacsarte.net (also by link for the download)

The digital artwork must be in jpg format, with a resolution between 700kb and 900kb.

____________________________________________________________________

The Artists which will participate in this event have absolutely to write on back of the postcard:

• name and surname

• address

• town or city

• Nation

• e-mail address

both on paper postcard, and on digital postcard (in the e-mail).

We ask You to write Your data as clear as possible, possibly in block letters, so that we can correctly insert and update all our contacts in our data base to realize the promotional materials and publications.

You can participate in both sections: Art Postcard and Digital Art Postcard.

Your Artwork(s) must reach SACS no later than July, 15th 2018.

The exhibition will take place in the months of september/october in Biblioteca Civica A. Aonzo (Public Library A. Aonzo).

Starting from the opening of the exhibition it will be possible to download the digital catalogue from SACS’ website (www.sacsarte.net) and from SACS’ Facebook Page (www.facebook.com/sacs.arte).

All artworks will not be returned, they will remain at complete disposal of the Municipality of Quiliano and so

they will be part of the SACS’ archive in Quiliano.

We thank You all for Your kind attention.

Please diffuse this message.

Yours faithfully.

ATC366++ ARTIST TRADING CARDS

www.atc.yzonk.com

The ATC's (Artist Trading Cards) are, as the name suggests, works of art created with the intention of being traded. They were used for a long time, in the artistic medium as business cards that represented the artist's capacities and were exchanged, in hand, among artists, gallerists and art dealers and others. With this small catalog of artworks, it would thus be possible for anyone interested to learn techniques from other artists, to own a small private collection of art or even to use them as real business cards at the time of commissioning works.
Although there are reports of the use of this type of card in the XVIII century, it was only in the late 90s, by the Swiss artist M. Vänçi Stirnemann, that they gain the current name by which they are known today and come to have their standardized dimensions as 64 x 89 mm (2 1/2 by 3 1/2 inches).

Some of ATC's variants are:
ACEO's (Art Cards Editions and Originals) - a version specifically designed for sale.
ATCBJ (Artist Trading Card Buddy Jam) - identical or similar ATC's, the result of collaboration among two or more artists and created in an identical quantity to those involved.
On a Double Buddy Jam, the first artist sends 2 similar ATCs to a second artist. The receiver works on top of those starters, keeps one and returns the second to the sender. A Triple Buddy Jam is rather similar, yet involves 3 artists.

On the ATCs back, the artists may sign and write the date when he received and the date of the art creation among other details.
