Open call / Residency in HOTEL CHARLEROI (be) 2011 Period of stay: 1 to 3 weeks between July 4 and July 24 Deadline for application: June 12 Hotel Charleroi is an artist-run initiative organising informal residencies and events in Charleroi, a peculiar shrinking city right next to Brussels. In July 2011, Hotel Charleroi starts its second session after last year’s initial project. This time the basis of Hotel Charleroi will be the contemporary art museum BPS 22, which is currently closed for administrative reasons. Hotel Charleroi is interested in developing new approaches to art in public space, therefore the museum will be defined as an accommodation infrastructure and not as an exhibition space. From July 9 to July 22 a series of events will occur in the city, including the presentation of interventions which have been planned since March by a group of invited artists. We propose interested people to join these artists in the BPS22 for informal residencies between July 4 and July 24. We developed Hotel Charleroi out of our own interest and means, therefore we cannot offer any financial support to the residents beside basic accommodation and participation to the Hotel Charleroi program. However, we count on the enthusiasm of local institutions and establishments to create networks and opportunities in Charleroi and around. If you are curious about the project, want to be part of it, or just want to use the environment to develop your personal research, please send us an email ([email protected]) before June 12 with: Contact Portfolio/ Link to Website Wished length of stay (Exact dates between July 4 and July 24) we will get back to you as soon as possible. For further information about the project and about Charleroi, please have a look at our website: www.hotelcharleroi.com |
