Tou
Works, Stavanger Norway
Deadline 5th of November 2007.
The east side of Stavanger, Norway is expanding rapidly,
incorporating culture, business and residents. The city's habits and
patterns are changing at a speedy rate but what kind of changes does
this imply? Looking at the route that starts at Nytorget, Pedersgata
ending up at Tou Scene, this project invites artists, citizens, city
planners and local businesses to comment the route, a 15-minute
walk. We hope these comments will highlight the route as an
extraordinary experience/walk in itself and question and explore
this specific environment.
CALL
FOR PROPOSALS
Creative people from all artistic fields
are invited to propose work inspired by sites on this route. The
selected artists will be offered a 10 days research period
developing work in Stavanger followed by a 5- day showing/event and
2 days of aftermath. The artists will be sharing their process and
working methods during the workshops and participate in worktasks,
lectures and a seminar as a shared process. Each artist selects a
site that will be negotiated with the curators and the local
residents. Private homes, shop windows, the public restrooms of the
old square, a street corner and a bush can all become hosts for
artistic triggers and the work be everything from alternative road
signs, ephemeral shops/temporary cafés, people as places/sites, walk
in cinema etc. Work can result in installations, interactions, sound
pieces and live work, the sky is the limit and we hope to get
surprised, shocked or amazed by your suggestions!

SEEKING ARTISTS PROPOSALS FOR EXHIBITIONS
Braille: Seeing the Unseen
Braille frames seeing
the unseen--- metaphysically, politically, and poetically. The
exhibition will map ways of navigating the world through non-sight,
and ways of sensing the world when one is unseen. Braille challenges
the act of seeing as a purely visual act and locates the power of
the senses as a possible lens to see and process the world. The
exhibition will center on moving beyond literal and traditional
definitions of sight, and actively looking on the periphery and
beyond the surface to see what is often unnoticed.
Screwed and Chopped
Screwed and Chopped is
inspired from screw music originating in the South (Houston, Texas)
which slows tempos and chops beats beyond recognition in a
surrealistic manner. Like the music, this exhibition is rooted in a
reconfiguring of time that cherishes slowness and the fantastical.
The exhibition moves beyond linear time to feature work by artists
who frame time travel, sampling and appropriating, stopping and
freezing time and slowing pace to create new states of existence.
Artists interested should submit up to 7 images of actual
work to be included in exhibition or relevant media documentation,
artist statement including how work relates to the theme, and CV to
archipelaga@gmail.com.

DISONANCIAS
2007/08
Deadline for applications: 3 October 2007, 9
am.
Call for artists to work on joint research projects
in 9 companies and investigation centres in
Spain
Collaboration period: from November 2007 to July 2008
(9 months)
DISONANCIAS is pleased to announce the call for
proposals from international artists to work on joint research
projects with heads of R&D&I in companies and research
centres located in the Basque Country (Spain).
DISONANCIAS is
a platform that promotes relationships between artists and
companies, research centres or public organisations in order to
foster innovation in all its aspects and transmit to society the
importance of developing creative environments.
Artists are
requested to develop a prototype, procedure or idea based on a
framework predefined by one of the nine participating entities:
DORLET, EiTB, FUNDACIÓN IKERTIA, GRUPO SARKIS/LAGUNKETA, IMAR,
LANIK, LANTEGI BATUAK, POLO GARAIA and TECNALIA. The concepts they
want to investigate can be grouped in two main fields:
-
concepts dealing with the organisation of territory and ways of
interrelating people and resources: sustainable urban environment
models (TECNALIA), ways of relating between disabled people
integrated into the job market and their social network (LANTEGI
BATUAK) or the interrelationship dynamics between the members of an
technological park (POLO GARAIA);
- technological or material
application/developments: most of the researches in this section
deal with architecture and urban issues: domotics (DORLET),
interactive urban furniture (IMAR), environmental architecture
(GRUPO SARKIS / LAGUNKETA), transformable architecture (LANIK), or
health emergency in public spaces (FUNDACIÓN IKERTIA).
In
the special case of EiTB (Basque Radio and Television), the
artist(s) is requested to research into the documentary format based
on the creation of an audiovisual work dealing with all the
collaboration projects.
The submitted proposals will be
examined by an international jury comprising Cecilia Andersson,
Bronac Ferran, Jose Pérez de Lama and Juan Mari Uzkudun. The final
decision will be taken by the hosting entities and will be
communicated at the end of October 2007.
DISONANCIAS gives
priority to the involvement of artists:
- interested in working
around the interaction between different social and cultural systems
and projects that favour group work;
- who use science or
technology as a basis for their work, or who reflect upon
it.
The call is open to artists working with any type of
medium and in any discipline, either individually or as a group.
There is no limit on age, nationality or place of
residence.
The selected artists or group of artists will each
receive the amount of 8,000 net euros as a fee for the work carried
out and for their travel and accommodation costs. The costs that may
be generated in the development of the research work and associated
with external companies and suppliers should not exceed 5,000 euros
+ VAT, and they should be previously approved by the hosting
entity.
Full information on the participating companies and
research centres, on the concepts they want to investigate, and on
the rules for participation is available at DISONANCIAS
