Residence « In context : public. art. ecology » – Khoj international artists’ association – Appel à candidatures

Applications are invited for an international residency “In Context: public.art.ecology Part III” at Khoj – International Artists’ Association – for art projects exploring ecological thematics preferably in public spaces around Delhi. The residency will be for 4- 6 weeks starting in the first week of March to mid April 2012.

Khoj invites proposals from individual artists and artists’ collectives, with projects in response to urgent ecological issues affecting the urban city. This year a special focus on the notion of food is chosen: food as artistic medium incorporating performance, art installations or interactive events that re-examine the significance and relevance of food in the social context, simply in its connection with the body or as a primary ritual that fosters engagement, interaction and collaboration. However, projects need not be limited to the above.

The applications should include the following:
– Artist biography & images of previous projects
– Concept Note
– Production & Installation Budget not exceeding INR 1,00,000 (USD 2000) for the proposed project. Costs of travel, modest accommodation and daily allowance are separate from the above production budget.
