VIS Open Call #15

In this issue, we are looking for contributions that explore the role of language in artistic research. This could be artistic research that experiments with language as a tool for reflection, that goes against it and/or moves around it. That operates with polylingual approaches or questions the position language has had, especially within artistic research.

The deadline for submitting exposition proposals is 29 May 2025. When an Open Call concludes, the VIS editorial committee selects seven expositions to proceed to peer review, copy-editing, and publication.

VIS uses the Research Catalogue (RC) database for both the application process and publication and can only accept exposition proposals submitted through this method. As an artist, you create an exposition using the tools provided by RC and then submit it to VIS for review. Both the VIS website and Research Catalogue provide clear instructions on how to create and submit an exposition proposal.

How do I submit an exposition proposal?

Register a "full account" on the Research Catalogue (RC) database. Create an exposition and submit it via "submit for review" to the RC portal "VIS, Nordic Journal for Artistic Research". The exposition can be written in Swedish, Norwegian, Danish or English – or in other Nordic languages and languages of the Nordic countries. The latter must be translated into English.
