Background: The Salon des Refusés was an exhibition of work by French artists who were rejected from the official 1863 Paris Salon. The Salon featured many artists, now considered masters, including Cezanne, Manet, and Pissarro. Keeler will present a Salon des Refusés presentation and discussion on risk-taking in public art and the role of the artist as cultural producer who re-imagines public space.

Acknowledging that there are many reasons why artists and projects are not selected for public art commissions, this presentation seeks to recognize the power of "what could have been."
Stuart Keeler is an artist and curator of public spaces and has demonstrated a strong commitment to research based on the role of the artist in the built environment. He has engaged multiple audiences with innovative curatorial projects on the web and in public spaces across the country and abroad. www.R.StuartKeeler.com 





Date: 05-11-2010
Location: San Antonio
Project: International Pancake Film Festival
Deadline: 06-15-2010




The third edition of the world’s only film festival dedicated to the pancake is currently holding an open call for submissions, all types of films welcome. As long as they feature the pancake. Yes, at least 75% of screen time must be devoted to that most magnificent of flat cakes. Send your documentaries, your animations, your dramas and comedies, your Sci-Fi’s, your westerns, your art films, horror and action, dramadies and parodies, heck if you got pancake erotica send it in- maybe we’ll do something after hours. It would be nice if it was on the shorter side, no longer than 5 minutes. If you have an 18-hour experimental pancake movie, maybe you could cut it down? If you are a musician, make a pancake based music video! The possibilities are endless. The deadline for entries is June 15th, 2010. The festival tour is scheduled for August 7, 2010, at Unit B (Gallery) in San Antonio, Texas and MEME gallery in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
