Call for artists [closed]
To who is the call directed to
DISONANCIAS gives priority to the involvement of artists who: are committed to their environment; are interested in stimulating interaction between different cultural and social systems; and who can contribute to collective work. The programme is open to artists working with any type of medium and in any discipline.
The selection process is open to artists of any age, nationality or place of residence, either presented individually or as a group. Candidates can present themselves before a maximum of three bodies, and must send one candidature dossier per body, specifying that they are presenting themselves to other bodies/another body in each dossier.
It is essential that the artists accept the fact that they will not be developing an autonomous creation project, but rather one related to and based on certain concepts and prerequisites defined by each participating entity, and that the main objective is research into and/or development of a prototype, procedure or idea that complies with these conditions.
Selection process
The artists will be selected after an international call to which they have to present at least one preliminary project that adapts itself to the research fields previously defined by the participating companies and centres. All the details about the selection process are in the Rules and Regulations document.
Candidates must fill in the registration form (either as individual, or as a group), and write a document in PDF format, containing the following information (in this order), in English, Spanish or Basque (no more than 10 A4 pages and 3MB):
- a brief description of their view of the role of the artist in society today, and their motivation for participating in the project;
- preliminary plan (s) (maximum of two by entity), in relation to the investigation formulated by the organisation;
- résumé of their artistic career (if possible, in a literary style; avoid CV format); specificying activities carried out in similar contexts (companies or equivalent), the degree of collaboration and the lessons drawn from the experience.
- availability during the collaboration period and work schedule.
The registration form and PDF document should be sent by email to izenematea[at]disonancias.com before 09.00 (Spanish time) on Monday 7 July, 2008. For enquiries or additional information, the DISONANCIAS organisation will answer by email (izenematea[at]disonancias.com) from28 April to 3 July, 2008.
A jury composed by Jorge Luis Marzo (curator and cultural investigator, www.soymenos.net, Barcelona), Juan Freire (biologist, university professor and entrepreneur; explorer of the role of innovation, strategy and technology in social networks, organisations and cities. www.juanfreire.net, A Coruña), Ana Betancour, (Head of Exhibitions at Stockholm Architecture Museum, Sweden) and Conxita Oliver (Responsible for the line of Investigation and Creation within the Projects Area of the Departament de Cultura i Mijans de Comunicació de la Generalitat de Catalunya) will make the selection of artists from the dossiers presented.
The DISONANCIAS organisation will personally communicate the jury’s decision to the authors pre-selected in mid-July 2008. The telephone interviews with the host bodies will take place in the third and fourth week of July 2008.
Economic conditions
Each artist or artist group selected will receive a minimum sum of 10,000 euros, not including tax, up to 12,000 euros in accordance with their geographical origin. This amount covers the fees for the work carried out, travel expenses, lodging and subsistence allowance, and the economic compensation for the exploitation rights, without prejudice to the amounts that the artist may eventually receive from the host body deriving from the commercial exploitation of the project, which will be agreed case by case.
The costs that may be generated in the development of the research work and associated with external companies and suppliers (costs relating to working hours of the technicians of the participating entity or materials used are not included here) must not exceed 6,000 euros + VAT, and they must be previously approved by the participating entity.
Attendance conditions
The artists agree to be present on:
- 21 and 22 October 2008 for the methodology meeting that will bring together all the participants and the first visits of the participating entities;
- the dates agreed upon with the participating entity, agreeing to be present a minimum of 20 working days (not necessarily consecutive);
- the dates agreed upon with the company and the DISONANCIAS organisers to present a talk that will be open to the public about the artist’s career and research project;
- the dates agreed upon with the organisers to participate in the party/event at the end of the project.

Hola maria, si, una empresa puede participar como colectivo en la convocatoria de artistas. El colectivo puede ser una asociación, una empresa o simplemente un colectivo de personas sin existencia juridica.

Hola Disonancias: "Vague" is the word I would use to describe the presentation of artist imagery, to accompany the dossier, asked for in the Call. Maybe I am not seeing it - or can you be more specific? Gracias. RB
