CALLING FOR SUBMISSIONS
AMORPH!99 International Performance festival
27th,28th and 29th August 99 - Helsinki, Finland
AMORPH!99 will take place on the 27th, 28th and 29th August 1999 in
Helsinki. We are looking for works for the festival. Please, send your
proposals for performances, live-installations or happenings until the 15th
February 99.
The venue for AMORPH!99 will be a new gallery of approximatly 200m2, called
ForumBox and which is situated by the seashore - a 10 minutes walk from the
centre, but performances are also welcome to take place in other places.
With your proposal send us a C.V and portfolio of some of your previous
works (laser copies,photos, c-tapes, VHS-tapes, etc; but do not send
originals nor slides - portfolios won`t be returned).
The grass is always greener on the other side
The greener side is the starting point for the
performer. The creation of boundaries - be they
cultural, national, or personal - is the
reference point or frame we choose to be in. If
the attraction of the other side is both
a search for similarities and a challenge given
by the unknown, could it be that art is reality
made of the illusions we share?
It is raining outside. I am walking in the street.
Suddenly I notice that the shopwindow captured our
reflection.
