Scenography Expanding: symposia, Riga/Belgrade/Evora 2010 - invitation & call for papers
Intersection: Scenography Expanding 1-3. Announcement of three symposia on scenographic practice and performance design with calls for papers and registration information. Symposia 1-3 Riga Belgrade - Evora 2010 www.intersection.cz Scenography Expanding: Invitation and Call for Papers Throughout the past decade, scenographic practice and performance design have continuously moved beyond the black box of the theatre toward a hybrid terrain located at the intersections of theatre, architecture, exhibition, visual arts, and media. Spaces that are at the same time hybrid, mediated, narrative, and transformative result from a trans-disciplinary understanding of space and a distinct awareness of social agency. These two factors of expansion may be regarded as the central driving forces in contemporary scenographic practice and thought. With the aim of initiating and hosting an active and trans-disciplinary discourse on the notion of an expanding scenography, the Prague Quadrennial of Performance Design and Space issues an invitation and a Call for Papers for Scenography Expanding 1-3 in 2010. The symposia will engage with notions of spectatorship, artists/authors, and curating in relation to the diverse artistic positions in contemporary spatial design. In preparation for the Intersection Project of the Prague Quadrennial in June, 2011, we invite researchers in practice and theory (artists, curators, programmers, directors, dramaturgs, critics, and theorists) to participate in 3 international scenography symposia held in Riga, Belgrade and Évora during 2010. Scenography Expanding 1-3 will be followed up by a publication comprised of selected speakers` contributions. Scenography Expanding 1: On Spectatorship February 25 27, 2010 New Theatre Institute of Latvia, Riga, Latvia On Spectatorship will engage with effects of a proposed scenographic turn on notions of spectatorship in performance design and space. How are contemporary theories of spectatorship Expanding by the increasingly hybrid spaces that we inhabit? Is space becoming a governing factor in the negotiation between performers and spectators? Deadline for registration and submission of abstracts: 15.12.2009 Scenography Expanding 2: On Artists/Authors July 9 11, 2010 BELEF Center and Festival, Belgrade, Serbia On Artists/Authors will investigate the identity of the artist/author in concept, construction and participation of hybrid scenographic and performance design spaces. Is and/or how is the transdisciplinary nature of scenographic projects reflected in the theoretical discourse on scenography? When does audience and/or curator turn co-creator? Deadline for registration and submission of abstracts: 15.3.2010 Scenography Expanding 3: On Curating September 27 29, 2010 Festival Escrita na Paisagem and Centro de História da Arte e Investigação Artística (CHAIA), Évora, Portugal On Curating is concerned with the complex role of the curator in exhibiting spatial practice. When does an artist become a curator? Who is the author of a space? Between Badious call for decidedness (2005) and Bourriauds relational aesthetics (2002) where do we stand? Deadline for registration and submission of abstracts: 15.6.2010 Symposia conveners Sodja Lotker, Prague Quadrennial Artistic Director Thea Brejzek, Prague Quadrennial Curator for Theory Please send abstracts of 300 words max and a short bio to: [email protected] and [email protected] (application form at www.intersection.cz).
