Attention Sound & Visual Artists: Lucerne Festival in Switzerland

Lucern Festival’s Soundzz.z.zzz…z Competition: Calls for Artists
Deadline: 14 Feb 2014
Time of the Festival: 15 Aug – 14 Sep 2014

From the Festival’s open call:

The competition is directed to young emerging artists (single artists, teams of two or three artists) to develop a project exploring the theme of «Psyche» at the intersection of music and the visual arts. The project in question should be ephemeral, performative, actionistic. The project that is selected by a jury will be executed during the course of LUCERNE FESTIVAL in Summer (15 August – 14 September 2014) on the premises of the Kunstmuseum Luzern.

The form this project will take is open-ended: it can involve an intervention, an action, a performance, an event or happening in the sense of a performance, a concept to be developed during the course of the Festival, a series of performances, or another type of event. It should center around an interest in exploring the intersection or interface between music and art. The project we are looking for should be neither an exhibition nor a concert.

Travel expenses and costs of accommodation in Lucerne will be covered. All Artists will also receive a per diem during their stay in Lucerne. There is no additional performance fee.

Cash award of CHF 5,000.00 (total fee for artists)
Production budget of CHF 10,000.00 (as the upper limit on expenses)
