Noch bis 6. Februar können sich Projekträume für die Teilnahme am PROJECT SPACE FESTIVAL BERLIN 2015 bewerben. Letztes Jahr zeigten im Rahmen des Festivals 30 Projekträume jeweils an einem Tag im August für 24 Stunden Ausstellungen, Performances, Konzerte und andere Projekte. Wir berichteten darüber: Artikel

Aufgrund des Erfolges geht das Festival nun in die zweite Runde. In der Ausschreibung heißt es:
" The Festival aims to present a diverse program of interesting and inspiring spaces, providing a momentary slice of the city’s independent scene. During the Festival, each participating space will host and organise one admission-free event, with one occurring on each day of August, totalling 30 days (plus a final party!). The event can last a maximum of 24 hours on a date allotted by the Festival in August. The PROJECT SPACE FESTIVAL BERLIN encourages a very free and open format including outdoor performances, musical or culinary get-togethers, or any other unexpected gatherings conveying the light spirit of a typical August in Berlin.

The project spaces included in the Festival will be selected this year in early March by a jury: Ulf Aminde (artist), Kathrin Becker (n.b.k.), Marie Graftieaux (Project Space Festival), Marie-José Ourtilane (General Public), Matthias Reichelt (journalist).

Please note that if selected, spaces are asked to pay a participation fee of 50 EUR. The PROJECT SPACE FESTIVAL BERLIN is run as a non-profit project and the participation fee directly contributes to the organisation and delivery of the festival for the benefit of all participants.

Criteria:

– identify as an independent art space
– have an ongoing program
– have unique and / or engaging perspective
– be available in August 2015 to host an event
– have a location to host an event (it does not need to be your space specifically!)

Submission should include:

– short description of space / mission statement (500 words)
– founding year
– 5 to 10 installation views of past projects
– contact person incl. email, address, and website

Please send the information in English or in German in one PDF-document (no more than 5 MB) per email to info@projectspacefestival-berlin.com.
