SHAPE+, a platform for innovative music and audiovisual art, supported by the Creative Europe programme of the European Union, runs until 2024. A new open call has been announced for artist submissions for the Year 1 SHAPE+ artist roster.
The working period of Year 1 of SHAPE+ will run tentatively from July 2022 till June 2023 (TBC).
Musicians are asked to provide an up to 10 minute long streamable video or audio excerpt of their live performance, while audiovisual artists are asked to provide streamable video documentation (or photos) of their work sent as online links.
Artists selected for this roster will be invited to activities by individual festivals that are part of SHAPE+. Applicants must be willing to participate in collaborative residencies with multiple artistic outcomes or one-off concerts/presentations during the period of Year1. Being open to greener forms of travel when possible is also crucial.
