ALLIANZ KULTURSTIFTUNG

Encouraging culture for an open society

All over the world, people demonstrate courage. However, spaces and forums for this kind of engagement are becoming increasingly restricted – even in what are ostensibly the open societies of Europe.

We strongly believe that open society depends on people who have the courage to engage in controversy and express their own opinions.

With this Call for Projects, we are addressing all those who are committed to this mission and who want to create spaces for resilience and solidarity with the means of art and culture.

The application deadline is 30 September 2019. You can find out more here...

23 August - 1 September in Berlin/Germany

The project circus re:searched will be part of this year's Berlin Circus Festival on the old airfield of the historic Tempelhof Airport: artists like Carmen Küster, Yotam Peled, David Eisele, das Hyldra Collective will host meet-the-artists  and show work-in-progress versions of their performances. This is a unique opportunity to experience the working processes of contemporary  circus art. 

circus re:searched is an Austrian-Swiss-German cooperation project aiming at supporting and connecting emerging artists in the field of contemporary circus. The project is jointly carried out by the organizations KreativKultur (AT), Berlin Circus Festival (DE) and Cirqu’Aarau (CH).
