Sculpture & Film
@ CSI Project Space
1912 N Damen Ave, Chicago, IL 60647
Opening Saturday, October 11th, from 6PM - 9PM
On view through Friday, November 21st
Chicago Sculpture International (CSI) members are invited to submit sculptural artwork in consideration for the upcoming “Sculpture & Film” exhibition within the CSI Project Space located at 1912 N. Damen in Chicago, IL. It has often been said that the art of filmmaking is sculptural, with its use of sculptural skills needed to build sets, the spatial compositions and movements of actors in a scene, or even the construction of films in the editing process. This exhibition will feature a wide range of sculptural artwork that explores the interconnection of sculpture and film, whether it displays film imagery, stills, objects, or material within a singular form; presents film spatially through projection or video monitor display; or emerges as a collaborative endeavor between two or more individuals to explore the parallels of cinematic and sculptural space.
The goal of “Sculpture & Film” is to provide an exhibition space that celebrates the use and inspiration of film within the world of sculpture, allowing for an expanse of traditional to experimental art-making processes, opening up diverse worlds of expression within CSI’s Project Space. Artists and artist teams are encouraged to submit work that can be displayed on the wall, floor, or pedestal. Installation proposals are encouraged, however space may be limited. Artists and artist teams may submit a maximum of three artworks per entry. “Sculpture & Film” will be on view at the same time as the 61st Chicago International Film Festival, showcasing and celebrating filmmakers and sculptors during the months of October and November.
