| nettime: discord / sabotage of realities |
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ discord. sabotage of realities. - week of visual arts Hamburg 1996 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Call for participation The title refers to an exhibition that intends to bring together many different artistic / political positions, concepts and objects. All interested artists are invited to participate by sending their concepts to Hamburg. A panel of artists and critics will review the concepts sent and decide which projects may be realized. Those invited will be assisted financially in the realization of their works. We are looking for aesthetic positions that discuss or have a critical look at the private, social and political realities we have created for ourselves, realities people live, fight and die for. We are looking for projects that question the usual, that pick on things often left unseen, that irritate our sense of being bogged down in unchangeable situations. The exhibition will be divided into six zones, which compose the structure of the show. Artists may choose to orient themselves around the following loose themes: * control security / insecurity * news services disinformations * everyday life unexpectedness * border politics walking the tightrope * government power law, discipline, repression * science fiction and economy the administration of the future Artistic media is open: performance, operations with existing realities, working models on the interface between art institutions and the public realm, multimedia artworks. locations: Kunsthaus and Kunstverein Hamburg application deadline: August 31, 1996 Dates of exhibition: Nov 19, 1996 - Jan 20, 1997 concepts for artworks - please in relatively small format - to: un-frieden. sabotage von wirklichkeiten Rutschbahn 37 D-20146 Hamburg Tel/Fax: ++49-40-410 49 37 e-mail: [email protected] / [email protected] URL: to be announced Supported by Kulturbehoerde der Freien und Hansestadt Hamburg. -- * distributed via nettime-l : no commercial use without permission * <nettime> is a closed moderated mailinglist for net criticism, * collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets * more info: [email protected] and "info nettime" in the msg body * URL: http://www.desk.nl/nettime/ contact: [email protected]
