Call for Applications (please distribute)
** Simultaneous Arrivals: Artistic Research Residency spring 2023 **
Simultaneous Arrivals (simularr) is an artistic research project on
novel forms of collaborative practices within the PEEK framework of the
Austrian Science Fund FWF (AR 714-G), running from 2022 until 2025.
simularr is happy to announce the open call for an artist-researcher to
join and complement the team in Graz (Austria) during the first in-situ
interval of the project for the period April and May 2023.
**Application timeline:** Submission deadline is 01 December 2022
(e-mail reception, 24:00 CET). Short-listed applications will be
notified on 08 December and invited to an online (Jitsi or Zoom) meeting
on 16 December.
**About the Project**
simularr (https://simularr.net/) posits a novel mode of collaborative
artistic process based on simultaneity and spatiality. These two
elements act as ‘basic’ or ‘boundary’ concepts that guide artists
working together, preserving diversity and individuality among the
group, while binding the process as a whole and bridging boundaries
between different practices. We aim to create new aesthetic approaches
that reveal the collaborative process without collapsing to a single or
synchronised position / object. The project designs methods that
facilitate contact among the concurrent artistic processes and
understanding how these concepts affect them. What are reference frames
that allow to establish a “togetherness, at the same time”, and how do
different types of spaces—thought spaces, aesthetic spaces,
architectural spaces—and their corresponding modes of spatiality
interact and interfere?
** Who the Call Addresses **
This call is directed at mid-career artists-researchers with prior
experience in collaborative approaches and whose work incorporates
spatial practices (e.g. intermedia, installation art, sound art, new
media art, performing arts). Applicants should be able to demonstrate
this through their past work (consistent portfolio / research material).
They are capable and interested in exposing and reflecting their process
and work through writing, discussion and other forms of discourse. They
have an understanding of the field of artistic research, and they are
intrigued by developing and sharing new approaches and methods for
collaborative artistic practice and research with the team and with
other artists-researchers during interval.
** How to Apply **
