[artinfo] Call for Applications: Change of Scene

[Tandem]

Call for Proposals

Change of Scene - International artistic cooperations for the Performing Arts.
Applications now being accepted!

We are looking for cooperation projects that 
address prevailing social themes and change and 
manifest them in a joint artistic response. 
Change of Scene helps to initiate and develop 
international artistic projects that are the 
result of direct collaboration between the 
cooperating partners. For up to two years, 
artists will gain the time and space to meet each 
other as well as have opportunity for intensive 
exchange. Existing contacts can be deepened 
further or built up afresh.

This Call for Proposals is directed at civic and 
state theaters as well as independent companies 
from the German-speaking realm (Germany, Austria 
or Switzerland) who wish to develop a new 
artistic project with a partner from North Africa 
or Eastern Europe. Change of Scene is open to all 
sectors of the performing arts. There should be 
one public presentation of the sponsored projects 
in both countries, or, at least, in the 
German-speaking partner country.

The jury chooses about 10 cooperation projects, 
each to receive a subsidy of up to 15.000 Euros. 
The jury consists of: Jörg Bochow (Head 
Dramaturge, Deutsches Schauspielhaus Hamburg), 
Anja Dirks (Artistic Director of the Belluard 
Festival, Fribourg), Stefan Schwarz (Program 
Director, tanzhaus NRW, Düsseldorf), Branko ·imiç 
(Director, Hamburg) and Bettina Sluzalek 
(Artistic Associate, Radialsystem V, Berlin).

Applications can be submitted until 15 February 
2017 online in German and English. Partners from 
North African or Eastern European countries 
should submit their application together with a 
partner from the German-speaking realm.
