Deadline 31st May 2013
Shedhalle Tübingen e.V. is a contemporary art forum in the university town Tübingen, located on the former area of the town's slaughterhouse. The association Shedhalle provides an arena for the presentation, development and creation of contemporary art.
Exhibition place
The Shedhalle is situated close to main university buildings and is within easy reach of Tübingen town centre. The large and bright exhibition hall provides around 1000sqm exhibition space and can be partitioned by flexible room dividers; therefore different conceptions of space are possible.
Subject: TRIAL&ERROR
The open call for Trail&Error is directed to artists who act on terrains of artistic-scientific research, with delight in experimentation to approach new artistic strategies or to those who deal with unconventional, experimental methods of expression and visualization.
Trail and error as a fundamental method of learning and solving problems, the courage to fail and the readiness to take this risk, curiosity and the driving force to make repeated attempts to approach a destination - connotations which might serve as an inspiration or impulse for the submitted artistic work.
Participation
The open call is directed to visual and media artists. You have to consider that the hall is not a clean white cube. The local conditions (no air conditioning, possibly high air moisture) have to be taken into account.
Additional programme
During the exhibition additional events are intended. Proposals for performances, concerts, lectures, workshops, etc. are highly welcome.
