Billboard Art Competition Art Moves 2023

查看今年的主題！我們需要從什么角度來看待現實的光明面，而不僅僅是黑暗面？

不收取入場費。比賽是公開的，所有對廣告牌藝術感興趣的藝術家都被邀請參加。作品應在2023年7月23日歐洲中部時間0:00前通過電子郵件提交至地址：artmoves（at）tlen.pl

2023年9月在波蘭托倫舉行的藝術運動節期間，6件最有趣的作品將在城市空間的廣告牌上展出。最有趣作品的作者將獲得4000茲羅提（約900.74歐元，984.06美元）的主要獎項。

藝術家們被邀請準備一件藝術品來回應今年的比賽主題：我們需要從什么角度來改變我們的視角，才能看到現實的光明面，而不僅僅是黑暗面？

這一競賽口號可以被視為當今世界正在發生的所有進程的隱喻。近年來，我們個人和全人類都經歷了大量困難和令人沮喪的情況和事件。疫情、戰爭和日益明顯的氣候危機對我們許多人產生了負面影響。但這些糟糕的事件只是我們生活的現實的一個方面。另一個光明的一面確實存在——這要歸功于我們的共同和個人努力、關系、日常工作以及對我們最重要事情的關心。盡管如此，當我們每天上網或使用其他類型的大眾傳播時，當我們試圖了解世界上正在發生的事情時，我們會被負面新聞轟炸，引發強烈的情緒，而這些情緒是極難抵御的。現實的消極一面與積極一面不平衡，影響了我們的生命能量，如果發揮更積極作用？

Artists are invited to prepare an artwork in response to this year’s competition theme: What shift in our perspective do we need to see the bright side of reality, not just the dark one?

This competition slogan can be treated as a metaphor of all the processes taking place in the world today. In recent years, both we individuals, and the whole of humanity, have experienced a plethora of difficult and depressing situations and events. The pandemic, wars (including the war in Ukraine) and an increasingly noticeable climate crisis have had a negative influence on many of us. But these bad events are just one side of the reality we live in. This other bright side does exist – thanks to our joint and individual efforts, relationships, everyday work and care about the most important things for us. Nevertheless, when we surf the Internet every day or use other types of mass communication, when we try to find out what is happening in the world, we are bombarded with negative news that induces strong emotions, which are extremely difficult to defend against. This negative side of reality, unbalanced by the positive one, deprives us of life energy, triggers irrational fears, and steals our willingness to life and act. What shift in our perspective do we need to see the bright side of reality which could be an antidote to the dark side, give us power and hope to build a better present and future? Where should we look for this bright side? Or maybe positive events happen every day, at our fingertips, but we just do not notice them? Why is it like that? What actions, feelings and ways of thinking can help us achieve this? How can we function and act better and more positively in our own life, the surrounding environment and the wide world?
