[Announcements] Marcus Westbury, Artistic Director, Next Wave Festival, Mel: msg#00084culture.india.sarai.reader
Please excuse the impersonal nature of this e-mail. Marcus Westbury is the Artistic Director of the Melbourne-based 2006 Next Wave Festival and will be arriving in India on Sunday 19th June. Marcus will be in Mumbai from Sunday 19 to Tuesday 21 and then in Delhi from Tuesday 21 to Saturday 25 June. Marcus will be in Mumbai and Delhi with the intention of meeting as many people as possible to discuss works and artists for potential inclusion within the next festival. Marcus will also be traveling Malaysia and by the time he reaches India he will have been to New Zealand, Canada, Belize, England, Scotland, South Africa, Kenya and Singapore. The theme and title of the next festival is Empire Games and it will take place in March 2006 alongside the Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games. The name is an old term for a new time and Marcus is looking for different takes on today’s Empire Games. Marcus is looking for Commonwealth country-based artists under 30 years of age who make-work in the areas of visual arts, theatre, media, film, sound and design. Marcus is particularly interested in: * art that does not fit into typical art categories: work that crosses mediums and artistic disciplines, or new and hard to categorize work * "light-based" projects: anything using light, including projection, digital or video film/animation * all kinds of visual arts, preferably suitable for exhibition outside of typical gallery spaces * theatre/dance/performance work, preferably small-scale and venue-flexible * music/ sound art/sound installation, both small and large scale: DJ‚s and live acts for large venues, as well as small scale musical /sound performances * "new media": all things digital, interactive, and cross-disciplinary * works which involve themes of culture jamming For more information on Next Wave Festival please visit www.nextwave.org.au <http://www.nextwave.org.au/>. If you would like to meet with Marcus or can suggest people with whom he should meet I would be grateful if you could let me know ASAP. Yours sincerely, Rachel Young _______________________________________________ announcements mailing list announcements@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.sarai.net/mailman/listinfo/announcements |
