Lapsus is an International call for photographic and video projects curated by the Italian critic Marinella Paderni which invites artists to reflect on how “History of art shows us that many works were born of accidental ‘mistakes’ which occurred during the execution of a project, the taking of a picture or the recording of a video; such slips or lapsus’ often occur without the knowledge of the author, who can use them as a point of strength in the final work.”

By 30 March, 15 projects will be chosen by the selection panel which includes Martin Breindl, Elena Ceratti and Silvio Wolf.

At the exhibition opening on 17 May 2013 the curator of Lapsus, Marinella Paderni, will choose the three winning projects and award € 2,000 prizes.

Exhibition of the 15 projects will be at the fsmgallery, Florence, Italy, and will run from 17 May to 15 June 2013.

Lapsus is a collaboration between Fondazione Studio Marangoni and Celeste Network.
