Hi,
This is my first post to the list and I am glad to share with all of
you this call for proposals related to the antiAtlas of borders.
The antiAtlas of borders is a transdisciplinary event that will take
place between September, 30, 2013 and March, 1rst, 2014.
Bypassing cartography, at the crossroads of research and art, it
offers a new approach of the mutations of borders and on the way they
are experienced by people in the 21st century. The antiAtlas is an
outcome of the transdisciplinary research project led by IMéRA
(Institut Méditerranéen de Recherches Avancées - Mediterranean
Institute of Advanced Research) on the mutations of contemporary
territorial configurations (2011-2013). By bringing together artists,
human scientists, hard scientists and professionals, it aims to
decompartmentalize fields of knowledge.
In the frame of the antiAtlas of borders, a call for proposals is
launched for an exhibition at La compagnie in Marseille, from December
13, 2013 to March 1rst, 2014.
The curator and the artistic and scientific committee are looking for
*various artworks proposals (net.art, photo, video, testimonies,
documentaries, video games...) expressing different ways to experience
borders.* Proposals from migrants, professionals and artists are
welcome, in order to contribute to prepare a resolutely participatory
exhibition.
*The antiAtlas will relies on five different supports:*
1 : an international symposium open to researchers, artists,
institutional actors, and to the public at large. It will take place
in Aix en Provence, from the 30th of September to the 2d of October 2013)
2 : a first art-science exhibition at the Musée des Tapisseries in Aix
en Provence (from 1rst October to 3 November 2013)
3 : a second art-science exhibition at La Compagnie, a place dedicated
creation and art in Marseille (from 13 December 2013 to 1srt mars 2014)
4 : an artistic and scientific web site that will complete and
perpetuate the work done and presented through the research program
and the two exhibitions
5 : an art science printed volume (winter 2014)
_*CALL FOR PROPOSALS*_
The call for proposals is opened in order to select original
productions for the exhibition that will take place at la Compagnie,
from 13 December 2013 to 1rst March 2014. Because of its
transdisciplinary nature, the antiAtlas of Borders offers multiple
levels of involvement and participation. Visitors will engage with a
variety of transmedia applications within a space punctuated with
interactive sculptures, installations and videos. This playful
exhibition will stimulate the public through the interaction with
robots, drones and video games. This is an exhibition to engage with:
try it yourself!
