MiXER 2016 – calling for adventurous artists!
“The mobile technology helps us to have our love ones always and everywhere at hand… but, somewhere down the line in spite of these nationwide mass-connections, we loosed our feeling for the other. Our relationships are turning to became plastic and distillate, a sort of virtual illusion that does not require direct eye-to-eye confrontation.â€
DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH COURAGE TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY?
MiXER is a cross-disciplinary collaboration experiment or as we call it “a playground†where artists from diverse art disciplines and cultural backgrounds are encouraged to engage, share methodologies and inspire each other. With the task of working in pairs artists are given the opportunity to regenerate their creative dynamism, exchange and develop new ideas; experiment with no fear of failure and thus assess their own artistic processes – learning valuable insights from other art forms.
MiXER is an independent and flexible 4 week programme with a structured outcome. The selected artists are paired up to work collaboratively on a new body of work. Furthermore their task is to assemble an ARTISTS’ BOOK covering the leading aspects of their collaboration.
MiXER urges dialogue and exchange of ideas and should be seen as an opportunity to try out different types of working processes. With a focus on experimental research and discussion we hope to foster an innovative interplay in the working manner of creative thinkers and art professionals, which may have an inter-disciplinary character.
The residency ends with a PUBLIC PRESENTATION of the completed project. The designed ARTIST’S BOOK is published. (each participant will receive 20 copies)
