Kunsthalle Bratislava Open Call

Dom umenia / Kunsthalle Bratislava, Bratislava

Dom umenia / Kunsthalle Bratislava
addresses to visual artists, theoreticians and curators of contemporary art an

OPEN CALL FOR SUBMITTING EXHIBITION PROJECTS, which will be realized in 2014 in the space of the newly reconstructed Kunsthalle LAB.

Kunsthalle LAB* is the part of the exhibition space of the nascent Kunsthalle Bratislava. Its display windows are oriented to the frequented public communication of Square SNP. The exhibition space of Kunsthalle LAB would like to present the most recent, overlapping manifestations of visual art. Preferred will be contextual projects with a clear and dense concept, perhaps even directly reacting on the site-specific situation of the gallery´s location, or the opportunity of direct communication of contemporary art with the public space from behind the display windows of the LAB and its daily functioning.

Our ambition is preferentially to present projects
/ of interactive character,
/ site-specific,
/ working with light and sound– mediating the sensory setting of the viewer,
/ reckoning with the participation of the viewer, collaborative, collective,
/ performative,
/ confronting in general the traditional perception of art as an exclusively ‚artistic' discipline,
/ projects well and effectively communicating in the direction of the street´s space and Bratislava´s frequented square.

--------
The opportunity to apply for the space of Kunsthalle LAB with an authorial project pertains to the time period May – December 2014. We will discuss the exact date of the exhibition with each selected author individually.
