Attention Artists: Memefest 2014: RADICAL INTIMACIES: DIALOGUE IN OUR TIMES
Memefest 2014: Call for Applications
Deadline: 20 Sep 2014
From the open call:
Memefest is an artist-led project run by Memefest Kolektiv, based in Slovenia and Australia. Dialogue is tirelessly presented as ‘the’ solution to the problems of ‘our’ times – in art, war, love, democracy and even in the workplace. In fact, dialogue has been central to the ethos of Memefest since its inception back in 2002. But what if dialogue is not working?
RADICAL INTIMACIES: DIALOGUE IN OUR TIMES is the theme of this year’s Memefest. We’re trying to ask a difficult question in order to honestly explore all the complicated failures and the hopeful potentialities that feed our faith in dialogue – politically, creatively, laboriously and intimately. Participation is free of charge and there is no age limit or any other restriction.
A special Award in each category will be given in collaboration with the Faculty of Health Arts and Design, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne: Memefest/Swinburne Award for Imaginative Critical Intervention. For more information and application form please visit the organizer’s website.
