Sound Development City

APPLY NOW!
Information and application at www.sound-development-city.com

 

Sound Development City is a new Sound Development project which enables a close exchange between artists of various backgrounds.

In the course of summer expeditions to Berlin, London and Zurich, selected artists from the areas of music, performance and other cultural fields experience and revive urban spaces. The dernier cri is the focus of these expeditions – it allows for an independent exploration of themes and modes of expression in the perception of the three cities. The work resulting from this exploration will in part be shown in public.

Participants are chosen on the basis of their application. Deadline for applications is 27 April 2012.

The number of participants is limited to 10. Participation for the selected artists is free of charge and made possible by Sound Development. www.sound-development-city.com

“All the rage – the dernier cri: How can we joyfully subvert the latest hype? And what happens when the phrase is taken literally? Images of war and revolution emerge before the mind’s eye, but also the global emblems of the financial crises and the occupy movement. The ‘latest’ cry is also the final one, the end – which in turn gives rise to a new beginning. In the interstice between we look for: new positions and unexpected approaches.” (Andalus/Dada, Artistic directors)

Gendai Workstation,1265 Bloor St. West
Hours: Tue.-Sat., 11am-6pm

Opening Reception
Saturday April 14, 2012, 8-11pm

Unlike the neutral spaces of museums, art galleries and artist-run centres, the Gendai Workstation functions as a constantly evolving site of collaborative construction, installation, architecture and renovation. Artists, architects, builders, curators and others; magicians, chefs, and gardeners to name a few, are invited to contribute to the physical and theoretical development of the space. Changing the focus from a finished product to an ongoing process of construction and collaboration allows for a move away from reified forms of knowledge to a multifarious dialogue, which, at every instance, provides possibilities for improvisation and interrogating the underpinnings on which artistic and architectural forms of knowledge are built.
