MASTERCLASS PROGRAMME 2015INTIMACY – Art Writing the Body OPEN CALL PROJECT ART WRITING hereby announces that our masterclass-programme-2015 is open for applications. The concept of ‘Art Writing’ as we define it, refers to a genre hybrid for a range of heterogeneous writing practices at play within the field of visual culture, in which analytic and poetic text-based art can be understood as modalities of writing: at once fictive, critical and theoretical while simultaneously being in dialogue with the visual field: art writing relates equally to other forms of artistic practice and the text experiments may act in combination with photos, form, body, sound and space. The written text can be seen as the medium of art historiography, as well as the medium of an art practice as such. Every year Project Art Writing is investigating in a theme, which is echoed in masterclasses, seminars and festivals trough out the entire year. The theme this year is INTIMACY – Art Writing the Body. We dazzle up for visual experiments focusing on the relationship between text and body: The body being an instrument for the appearance of the text, and the body as a reservoir of experience that informs the text. The theme also opens up to performance and brings at play all technologies, bodily traditions and medias involved with that genre as well. The masterclass teaching programme evolves over 3 weeks in April, June and September, with Ida Marie Hede as facilitating main figure in collaboration with three international guest teachers: Steven Zultanski [US] – Helena Eriksson [SE] and one performing and writing artist yet to be announced. Masterclass APRIL: 13th – 17th. Featuring guest teacher Steven Zultanski [US] Masterclass JUNE: To be announced Masterclass SEPTEMBER: 14th – 18th.
