Lilith Performance Open Call for new major visual art performances | Lilith Performance Studio 2018 -2020

Lilith Performance Studio is now welcoming visual artists to apply to Lilith Commissions with a proposal of a new major performance work, which will be realized in Malmo, Sweden, during 2018-2020. 

 

OPENCALL

Lilith Performance Studio is a non-profit arts organization and an independent arena for visual art performance. The Studio initiates new exceptional visual art performances by inviting visual artists from around the world, some of whom have never worked live before.

Each year, selected artists are given the unique opportunity to realize and present a new large-scale performance on site in the studio in Malmo or elsewhere in the city, in close collaboration with the studio.

The invited artists get a great chance to explore their own artistic expression and to work in a larger scale including all aspects in creating a new art work.
Lilith selects artists with a distinctively individual artistic mode of expression and integrity when it comes to idea as well as method, artists that also share an interest in exploring their own work in relation to the studio as an experimental site. The artists are encouraged to expand their artistic vision through the use of live performance, resulting in unique productions.

During a 4-8 weeks long production period in Malmo the artists are given the opportunity to focus on all the parts of a live piece: site, time, staging, participants and audience.

The selected artists to Lilith’s Commission program will receive significant financial and production support to experiment and realize innovative new works, in close collaboration with the studio from conceptualization to presentation.
Lilith Commission will include a budget for production, research and development, artist fee, accommodation and travel expenses.

Proposals should be new, innovative large-scale works, which respond to the idea of the studio as an experimental site, and the wish to expand the artistic vision.
Applicants will be judged on the groundbreaking nature of their idea and its potential for realisation.

Lilith Performance Studio opened in 2007 in Malmo, Sweden and has since the inception created 45 commissions, several curatorial collaborations, guest appearances and festivals.
As a production space and an arena for visual art performance, the studio is the first of its kind in the world.
