\u00ab\u00a0The Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto\u2019s (LIFT) recently celebrated its 40th anniversary as an artist-run organization. The city has changed significantly over those four decades. This milestone presents the opportunity to create an intergenerational dialogue between artists. We are excited to announce \u201cTransformations: A Cross Generational Commissioning Project,\u201d a call for proposals from five emerging artists to collaborate with five artists who have been a part of LIFT in the past. Inspired by the Barbara Hammer and Gina Carducci film \u201cGenerations,\u201d we hope to generate a series of five short collaborative works, exploring the passage of time in the built landscape and questioning alternative histories of Toronto. The theme is a broad question that will allow a variety of responses from our filmmakers: What defines a city in flux?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can imagine many responses, but will focus on works that point towards the idea of filmmaking as a collaborative art, explorations of collective experience, and cultural memory; placemaking; intersectional storytelling; intergenerational exchange; and imagined or unexpected communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The five previously selected veteran artists from LIFT\u2019s first 20 years include Helen Lee, Jorge Manzano, Kelly O\u2019Brien, John Price and Edie Steiner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The proposals for the five emerging artists*<\/em> will be adjudicated through a selected jury of members who represent the diverse culture that is LIFT\u2019s membership. The jury will shortlist successful applications which demonstrate a clear artistic vision and alignment with the interests of the veteran filmmakers.The shortlist will be shared with the veteran artists who will provide feedback and LIFT staff will make
the final pairing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*In this project, the term \u201cemerging\u201d is defined loosely and doesn\u2019t have a defined age range nor skill level.If you feel like you could benefit creatively from a collaboration of this type, this project is for you.<\/em>\u00ab\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
