URBAN MYTH

 

URBAN MYTH



CONTEST 2010

For the Contest 2010 the Belluard Bollwerk International and the Pour-cent culturel Migros were looking for playful and radical artistic projects that are dealing with Urban Myths. With this call for proposals we threw a stone in the water that made many ripples, reached a lot of people and got many different responses.
Out of 349 applications a professional jury selected 8 projects. These 8 proposals form a heterogenous palette of autonomous art works, each dealing with the initial stone we threw in the water, ‘urban myth’, from a different angle. For every artist or artist group the term ‘urban myth’ triggered something else. Some projects use a contemporary myth as a starting point, whether it is the missing link between Colonel Gadaffi and Damien Hirst that Nicolas Galeazzi and Joël Verwimp are looking for or the Swiss watches of the United Patriotic Squadrons of Blessed Diana. For others, some still to be revealed,  the myth is in the making. What will be happening in the streets of Fribourg during the Belluard Festival?
Then there are projects that might make you wonder if they are fiction or reality, science or art, like Thomas Bratzke’s accupuncture for buildings, or the micro-organisms that live in our pockets presented to you by Scenocosme.  Last but not least there is the artist themself as a myth: the anonymous artist with an anonymous project. Whoever finds him/ her receives a reward!
What we ask from you, dear spectator, is to keep your eyes especially peeled for everything that surrounds you during the ten days of the festival. Have fun!




Jury: Daniel Belasco Rogers, Sally De Kunst, Sophia New, Oliver Schmid, Daniel Suter, Barbara Van Lindt, René Walker.
With support of: Pour-cent culturel Migros.
