BLIK BLIK, one of the largest festivals of light and art in public space in the Czech Republic, which takes place every year at various locations in the streets of Pilsen, announces an open call for the 2025 edition, from 21 to 22 March 2025. The festival is attended by an average of 40,000 people over two nights. A total of 6,000–8,000 people visit the indoor (paid) installations.
The festival is looking for three light art installations or objects to be placed in the following locations:
- Garden of Eden, Museum of Religious Art, Pilsen (available budget maximum 4,000 EUR, excluding VAT, if applicable)
- Bus hall, DEPO2015, Pilsen (available budget maximum 12,000 EUR, excluding VAT, if applicable)
- Public space, Pilsen (available budget maximum 8,000 EUR, excluding VAT, if applicable)
The amount includes the fee, transport of the work and the artist to/from Pilsen, production costs related to installation and de-installation. In addition to the above, the festival pays for accommodation, on-site production and technical support and operational staff (sound engineer, guides, etc.). In the case of an exceptionally interesting proposal, it is possible to participate to a reasonable extent in the provision of AV equipment (projectors/laser, etc.). However, this technology should be described in the proposal.
