CALL OUT FOR ARTISTS

'double lives:duple trials' Exhibition



A ‘double life’ conventionally is a life of two identities where one is
simultaneously involved in two sets of circumstances and retains the secrecy
of one from the other.



The exhibition hopes to explore these two sets exposing the dichotomies of
fiction and reality, mirror images and opposing forces. ‘Double lives’ cater
for a parallel existence whether it portrays deceiving acts or insatiable
actions and can as subtle as a pen name or as exaggerated as the secret
identity of a super hero; ultimately why are they adopted?



Rene Descartes and Gilbert Ryle both contest from separate perspectives that
our biographies- mind and body- are divided but can along in parallel
without being the same entity.





*Application information *



Artists are invited to submit work which investigates the functions of
duality, such as alter egos, multiple personalities, parallel universes,
secret relationships but where double lives exist, privately or publicly.



The exhibition will take place at the Malt Cross, 16, St James St,
Nottingham (http://www.maltcross.com/) in February 2011.
