Baz‐Art NPO
is inviting four Cape Town‐based public or urban artists to participate in The
International Public Art Festival (IPAF), from the 10th to 19th February 2018,
in the community of Salt River.
The four
chosen artists would have a unique opportunity to be a part of an international
team of professional artists positively impacting small communities –
one mural
at a time – while expressing their love for public art. The artists will be
showcasing their work, while helping Baz‐Art harness the power of art for the benefit
of the community.
The theme
of this year’s festival is “Nature doesn’t need us; We need nature”
With the
current water crisis on our own doorstep in Cape Town and the far‐reaching impact
and effects of global warming, caused primarily by over consumerisation, we
believe that this theme will be a catalyst to evoke passion and emotion from
our artists.
Requirements
for submissions:
1. Must be
able to paint large murals
2.
Understand the theme and the community they will be painting for
3. Be a
Cape Town resident (to have been residing in/around Cape Town for at least 5
years)
4. Those selected would have to submit a
sketch by latest the 15th January 2018
Please
