Call for proposals: Madrid Abierto 2006. Deadline on the 31st of May to submit artistic projects
Madrid Abierto is a project within what is generically known as Public Art. In the words of its organizer, Ramon Parramon, its objective is to “ stimulate and generate work processes which take place over time, to boost immersion in the place itself and to interact in a section of public space that has a bearing on the social environment. Madrid Abierto is a programme based on this premise of influencing the public sphere and uses different public areas of the city of Madrid as its stage, proposing new formats and using existing channels or infrastructures which get the general public involved, both in the process and in the search for other people”.
Artists are invited to present project proposals for the 2006 Madrid Abierto. The event falls within the public art (i.e. predominantly visual arts) field. Performance artists are invited to apply but should develop their project proposals within the framework of an event which takes place over one month in February 2006.
The aim of this call is to select a minimum of ten projects for temporary or short-term artistic projects to take part in Madrid Abierto along with other guest projects. Projects should be sent before the 31st of May, 2005.
