[spectre] Opportunities at Lighthouse: Artistic Director & Art Commission

[Honor Harger]

Hi spectres,

Hope 2014 has started well for everyone.

I'm getting in touch about two really interesting opportunities that 
we have going at Lighthouse (http://www.lighthouse.org.uk/), one for 
curators, and one for artists.

* Artistic Director
http://is.gd/lh_ad
Deadline: 20 January 2014

We're looking for a brilliant and inspiration person to lead the 
artist programme at Lighthouse.  The Artistic Director will play a 
key role in building on the success and expansion of Lighthouse in 
recent years, and will lead our work at the intersection of the art, 
film and digital creative industry sectors. We welcome applications 
from a wide range of candidates, from digital media 
producers/directors and technology specialists, to senior 
professionals within the arts and cultural sector.
This is a great opportunity to co-direct an ambitious, innovative and 
influential arts organisation with a bright future.

If anyone would be interested in discussing this with me, please 
don't hesitate to get in touch.


* New Commission for Artists
http://is.gd/artcommission
Deadline: 20 January 2014

Lighthouse, together with Brighton Festival (England's largest arts 
festival), plus HOUSE Festival, are commissioning new work for this 
year's festival in May 2014. We're looking for short Expressions of 
Interest from artists for these new commissions. One of them will be 
exhibited at Lighthouse during Brighton Festival. The others will be 
site-specific work dotted around Brighton. The commissions will 
respond to themes which occur within the festival - especially 
notions of territory and place, cultural identity, displacement, 
immigration and refuge.
The artists applying need to be based in London or the South East of 
England, but that gives us a fairly broad catchment area.

I'd really like to hear from artists and creatives who are working 
with science, technology or networks within their practice, so if 
you, or anyone you know, would be interested in this, please do get 
in touch.

Hope this is of interest to some of you.

Best wishes,

Honor Harger
