arborescence 06 call for entries
DUE DATE TO REGISTER YOUR FILE: MARCH 15TH, 2006
Arborescence 06 has decided to consider the set of Lighting themes.
At once close to the general direction of the festival, which remains faithful to its first orientations meaning: Art/Nature/Technologies, this set of themes brings us through fields of bigger concerns, making echo to the complexity of our destiny related to technological research, sustainable development...
From an artistic and/or philosophical point of view, the light in its substance constitutes a kind of foundation of creation, an ideal of vision and progression. It’s up to us to perceive it, to play with it in a visible or simply readable way.
From purely technical and electric points of view, lighting conceals with its presence technological and digital processes. Today, an installation known as "digital art" must flee ambient light, to better revealing its own image. Conversely to art known as "traditional" which awakes through it. This obvious dichotomy in presentation forms seems to us interesting to apprehend in a thought related to new ways of presentation and constitution of what we call today a production in digital art.
From a political and citizen point of view, and the artist responsibility if we may, the set of lighting themes reveals stakes and directions of a future which opens to a total and equal egalitarian development.
In this way, artists responding to this project call will have to present installations, performances, or all other type of multimedia productions in fields known as of "digital arts".
The synthesis note enclosed, is to be filled out and returned by email or general mail along with all additional information to the project’s good understanding.
A jury made up of professionals will meet at the end of March 2006 to choose the most relevant projects. An answer will be systematically sent to the participants.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
The Terre Active organization, which organizes Arborescence, cannot allow itself to return nor answer in individual way to each art file received.
• Thank you for joining a stamped envelope to your art file for the answer, if necessary.
• This project call does not relate specifically to creations, because we do not have large means of production.
As of its creation, the Terre Active organization made the bet to manage a festival with an original concept in France and Europe, based on collaboration between the performing arts environment, digital creation and ecological issues. This event presents visual and digital installations related to Art, Nature and Technologies.
