OPEN CALL FOR ARTISTS, THEORISTS, ACTIVISTS
SHORT PROPOSAL UNTIL 10th SEPTEMBER 2016

Means of artistic action, strategic options, and 
creative leeway in a Europe of/with shifting 
borders.

Open call for artists, critical writers, 
activists, and poets to present their work, share 
their ideas or develop their projects around 
re-imagining Europe and basic questions of 
decision-making.

The selected participants will be invited to 
present and discuss their project at  the 
KUNSTHALLE AM HAMBURGER PLATZ in Berlin from 
early-October to  mid-November. Travel costs or 
presentation honorarium will be covered.

Europe - whether conceived as a political, 
economic, or cultural entity - can no longer be 
taken for granted, and not only its future, but 
also its present form is in imminent question.

Re-image, re-invent, or re-envision Europe!

We are looking for: utopias, dystopias, 
imaginative cartographies, speculative political 
visions/theories, future Europes, past/present 
Europes reimagined, imaginary/real borders, etc.

How do we stabilize unstable situations, 
political, social as well as artistic ones? What 
can politics learn from art, as processes of 
destabilisation are critical in the art 
experience? Is choice possible in a world of 
stable-unstable politics? Is there good or bad 
stability? How do we mediate between 
destabilisation, multiple identities, 
interpretation, choice and change?

We are looking for: models/theories of 
decision-making, speculative forms of art in 
governance of art and politics, critical 
models/theories of de/stabilisation, choice, 
change, multistability, fractivity, 
self-reflection, and the like...

The format of participation is fully open. We 
invite poetic and artistic sketches, as well as 
political and/or radical drafts. Please include 
in your proposal a short description/sketch of 
your work, and a short bio.

Send your proposals/ideas to proposal at un-stable.eu
no later than 10th September 2016. We welcome your entry!

Koster in collaboration with the KUNSTHALLE AM 
HAMBURGER PLATZ, an institution of the Weißensee 
Academy of Art Berlin; agency is the lzmb e.V. 
The project is funded by the EU.
