OPEN CALL for transdisciplinary public artworks on the theme WATER STREAM

In its second year, TESLA Award opens up for international artists and creators from different fields!

 

TESLA Award (Transdisciplinary Experimental Slovenian Art Award) is a new competition  focusing on new and progressive art forms in the field of transdisciplinary or intermedia art. Its mission is to provide optimal conditions for selected artists to research, produce and present an entirely new artwork under the mentorship of MoTA – Museum of Transitory Art and each year’s partners. The aim of the award is to improve the conditions of artistic production in the field of transdisciplinary / intermedia art, in response to the growing interest in research-based practices in Slovenia and broader Eastern European region. This year TESLA partners with Artbat Fest in Almaty, Kazakhstan, and Bellastock from Paris, to support two public space works to be installed in Almaty. TESLA 2018 is looking for innovative public space projects on the topic of Water Stream.

 What is the TESLA budget?

TESLA offers a 4.000 EUR award for production costs & the artist fee. It provides travel cost from Europe to Almaty and accommodation in Almaty and a production budget to realize the project idea. The production budget is an essential part of the project proposal and will be discussed and optimised with the awardee after the selection. Daily allowance in Almaty is the expense of the awardee.

 The works will be premiered at the opening of Artbat Fest on 24 August 2018.
