Fourth Open International Competition - TOWER KRONPRINZ: SECOND ADVENT, Kaliningrad, Russia

Fourth Open International Competition - TOWER KRONPRINZ: SECOND ADVENT, Kaliningrad, Russia
Deadline : March 02, 2009

Kaliningrad Branch of the National Centre for Contemporary Arts, Tower Kronprinz

The Concept

International competition "Tower Kronprinz: Second Advent" focuses on the involvement of the city dwellers and professional community in the process of restoring and reconstructing the future residence of NCCA in Kaliningrad - a fortification structure tower-redan Kronprinz, a historical and cultural monument of the middle XIX century.

In 2003 NCCA got an official right to use a part of defense barracks - tower Kronprinz - and create there a museum, exhibition, research and information complex of actual culture in Kaliningrad. At present reconstruction and restoration works are in progress, but it takes quite a time to complete them. We perceive these works as a process of creation and every year we manage to find some new angles of the monument's vision and to integrate it into the regional and European life - and all this with the help of witty proposals of artists. The project allows to demonstrate the possibilities of contemporary art and helps to actualize the historical monument and make it recognizable by the society.

The following projects are eligible for the competition: developed by Russian and international artists, newly created and never shown before, related to the tower KRONPRINZ and meant for demonstration on its territory.

The project is supported by:
Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation
Ford Foundation (Moscow representative office)

Artists' Residencies for Visual Artists and Writers, Ox-Bow, MI

Artists' Residencies for Visual Artists and Writers, Ox-Bow, MI
Deadline : March 20, 2009.

Artists' Residencies for Visual Artists and Writers  One and two-week residencies  from  June 7-August 22, 2009 

Ox-Bow is a 99-year old school of art and artists' residency, located in Saugatuck, MI and affiliated with the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Ox-Bow offers one and two week residencies for emerging and professional artists from June-August, alongside a rigorous academic and studio program. We offer one and two-week intensives for graduate and undergraduate students in a variety of studio areas-- from the experimental to the traditional or the craft-based. Ox-Bow curates a community of engaged makers and thinkers to offer its artists the opportunity to re-imagine their own studio practice, whether through a residency on campus, an exploration of a new material, through a unique one-on-one relationship with faculty members, or through a commitment to experimentation that is fostered by the safe community and environment on campus.

In 2009, Ox-Bow's role is to challenge how we view the definitions of art, craft, viewer, participant, and artist. Artists in residence, while unable to use formal classroom studios, can take advantage of the dynamic and energetic community.

Version>09: Immodest Proposals, Chicago

Version>09: Immodest Proposals wants you to consider joining us this year.
Deadline for Version>09 Immodest Proposals February 28, 2009

As part of the festival we are starting special projects and collaborations.
The first one we are pleased to announce is called:

Codename: WPA Bridgeport Project 1

Visit the call for participation here: http://www.lumpen.com/V9/program.html

This project is meant to be an imagined cultural program that the federal government would instigate as part of the new Economic Stimulus Project being put through Congress by the Obama Administration.

Inspired by Roosevelt's New Deal cultural programs under the WPA (WORKS PROGRESS ADMINISTRATION) we hope this project underscores the necessity for the support of artists and the idea of civic responsibility to the greater society.

We will be using the neighborhood of Bridgeport as a pilot program to install fresh public works, sculptures, murals, as well as poster and other media campaigns to inspire citizens in these trying times. We have secured walls, interior and exterior and are working with our neighbors to provide space to show new permanent and temporary works.

please visit the blog and follow it. or contact one of us: http://bridgeportwpa.blogspot.com

This blog is an informational site to keep in contact with participants of Version festival and any interested people.
