ArtHERE Silocon Valley is an online platform and website for crowd-sourced urban revitalization through the matching of art and place, launching as part of the 2012 ZERO1 Biennial. Through an open call process, we are now inviting artists to submit proposals for a series of spaces in downtown San Jose’s SoFA District – the hub of the 2012 ZERO1 Biennial. The goal is to help the Silicon Valley community and artists activate empty and under-utilized urban spaces. Even if you don’t submit a proposal yourself, we’d love for you to check out the site, read through the proposals, and “like” your favorites.

Deadline: April 15, 2012.

ZERO1 Emerging Artist Network open calls are specifically for projects by California-based emerging artists that will be featured in the ZERO1 Biennial weekend-long outdoor exhibition throughout the opening week, September 12th-16th. Artists chosen to receive micro-grants will be invited to participate in a weekend of events dedicated to the development of this new program.
