Horizons Arts-Nature en Sancy | 2019 projects call

Call for artists projects to be presented at the Horizons “Arts-Nature” in Sancy event, programmed for 15th June till 22th September 2019. This is the twelfth contemporary art based Horizons event. The pieces are short-lived and specifically made for the Sancy massif (heart of the Massif Central in France).

Managed by the Sancy Tourist Office, the call for projects involves the creation of 10 works of art into the territory of The Sancy Massif Community of Municipalities. This event is first and foremost a site specific project which likes to think of itself as long lasting and which involves all the local authorities and players in the tourist trade concerned.

In 2019, 10 works will be selected. However, the organization of Horizons has the right to change this number. The final decision will be announced in March 2019.

The aim of the event is to:

- Develop contemporary creation in the area

- Allow professional artists to contribute their sensitivity and view of the area

- Reinforce the growth of tourism in the Sancy Massif

Art grant: a grant totalling €8,000 including VAT will be given to each artist (or team) selected including €6.500 for artistic fees and €1.500 for rights of authors. This budget will be managed entirely by the artist and approved by the organizer. The budget must cover all expenses necessary to carry out the work. The artist manages the project from A to Z to find out all the tasks of the organization, research suppliers, requests for quote, logistics for delivery and routing of materials (see list in guidelines).

Deadline for proposals: 12 November 2018
