Mail Art Call for Fluxfest 2019

Pride Mail Call for Entries

Simultaneously celebrating Fluxus and Gay Pride, Fluxfest 2019 is calling for mail art on the theme of PRIDE.

No jury. No returns.

All entries must be sent and received by conventional postal mail, and must be in a standard postcard format. The standard postcard size is A6 (148 x 105 mm) or 6" x 4". Larger works that conform to Universal Postal Union size limits (Maximum 235 x 120 mm or 9.25" x 4.72 ") will also be accepted.

Please mail postcard to:

Fluxfest Pride Mail
501-1555 Avenue Road
Toronto, ON
M5M 4M2
CANADA

Limitations:

Censorship is anathema to the Fluxus spirit. However, exhibited works cannot violate Canadian law. Fortunately, the laws protecting artistic freedom of expression are relatively strong in Canada. Basically, anything goes, except child pornography and hate speech. Hate speech includes, "advocating genocide", "publicly inciting hatred", and "promoting hatred".

Given the history of persecution of sexual minorities, the curators are committed to including artworks that may depict or document manifestations of homophobia, provided that such works do not violate the law.

It is illegal to produce, distribute, or possess child pornography in Canada, as such work deemed to be such by the curators, will be destroyed upon receipt. Reference: Criminal Code of Canada

NOTICE: The curators reserve the right to refuse to exhibit and/or document any submission at their absolute and sole discretion.
