OPEN CALL FOR LECTURE-PERFORMANCES AT JUST MADRID ART FAIR 2010

Open call for four lecture-performances for the project On the Table, organized by the Lisbon-based curatorial team Filipa Oliveira + Miguel Amado for the section Curators Desk at Just Madrid Art Fair 2010. Lecture-performance refers to the bringing together of performative and educational traditions within a pedagogical context. Artists can present their work or a specific project through an informal discussion with the audience, devising a discursive platform within the context of an art fair.

We are looking for proposals that consist of one night presentations with a maximum of 2 hours taking place in a four-square meters booth. The selected proposals have to be carried out by artists based in Madrid during the city's fair week (February 17-21) and cannot require any budget or specific equipment. Just Madrid Art Fair will take place between February 18-21 at El Matadero in Madrid and the lectures-performances will take place every night at 19H00, except on Sunday, which will be at 17H00.

Please send a maximum of 250-word proposal with up to 5 images by February 7 containing all contact information including e-mail, cell phone number, address and a brief CV to the following e-mail: filipaoliveira.miguelamado@gmail.com. The four selected artists will be contacted by e-mail.
