Warehouse9: Call for Workshop proposals from LGBTQIA+ artists in the Nordic Region (Denmark)

Text on green background: 'Open call Autumn Labs'.

Warehouse9 is delighted to announce a new opportunity for Nordic-based LGBTQIA+ artists working in live art and interdisciplinary performance to propose and deliver a unique research-based workshop for/with up to 5 participating artists.

This is a rare opportunity for artists to conceive, try out and explore new and unusual ideas. The organisers want to hear from you if have an idea for a project proposal that you would like to explore in the form of a workshop together with other artists. They are looking for projects that offer something different and are grounded in unconventional approaches, forms and concepts.

The workshop can be about anything, take any form and be based anywhere in Copenhagen. Your imagination sets the limits.

In light of COVID-19, Warehouse9 ask that you consider: what might professional development by artists, for artists look like in 2021? How might you include the professional development of other artists in the development of your own professional development and project idea? How might your proposal integrate care, compassion and access for all participants?

The selected workshops will take place as part of Warehouse9’s autumn 2021 programme. They therefore ask that you only apply if you are available to deliver a workshop between the dates 22-28 November 2021.

Your workshop should be 2-3 days long and be able to accommodate up to 5 participating artists. 2 proposals will be selected.

Support:

  • Each selected proposal will receive 15,000 DKK (~2000 EUR) fixed fee for the preparation, delivery and evaluation of the workshop.
  • Each selected proposal can receive up to 5000 DKK (~670 EUR) in materials and expenses in order to realise the workshop. Costs to be agreed with Warehouse9.
  • Travel and accommodation will be supported for a maximum of 5 nights in Copenhagen.
  • The organisers will do their utmost to support access needs.

This opportunity is aimed at LGBTQIA+ artists or duos based in the Nordic region. Danish-based artists will only be selected if their proposal is in collaboration with a Nordic-based artist living outside of Denmark. The organisers therefore ask that you do not apply if you are an individual applying who is based in Denmark.

All applicants should be outside of education and training and have delivered at least one documented project for a public audience. The minimum age requirement is 18 years old. The organsers particularly welcome applicants from BIPoC, migrants and/or neuro or physically diverse communities, as they are under-represented within the Danish performance landscape.
