UNIDEE - University of Ideas: call for applications 2015

May 4–December 4, 2015

UNIDEE - University of Ideas

UNIDEE at Cittadellarte is changing. After 14 years as a residency
programme, and a transitional 15th edition questioning the relevance of
traditional residency schemes while testing out a new format, UNIDEE has
evolved into a multifaceted platform, with a new educational programme
based on interdisciplinary research, knowledge sharing and experience
exchange, alongside a series of artists' residency projects.

UNIDEE - University of Ideas offers an educational artistic programme of
weekly residential modules taking place both at Cittadellarte and at
international academic partners' sites. An alternative to the traditional
educational system, it works in synergy with international academies and
public universities. It fosters processes of cross-pollination to
investigate the relationship between art and public sphere, focusing on
topics like social responsibility, urban transformation, participatory art
practices,demopraxy, alternative models of local economic development,
sustainability, etc.

Designed for artists, curators, students, social entrepreneurs, cultural
project managers, etc., UNIDEE - University of Ideas' modules put forward
a participatory learning experience in a small group setting, through
practices, methodologies and tools apt at forging knowledge while
fostering relational skills, socially responsible behaviours that value
diversity, "effective" horizontal thought processes, and the possibility
to "err," on a quest for new means of expression.

UNIDEE - University of Ideas, in keeping with Michelangelo Pistoletto's
foundational principle of Cittadellarte as an "interdisciplinary
educational laboratory" (Manifesto Progetto Arte, 1994) aims to stimulate
the emergence of a new figure, catalyst of artistic projects for a
responsible social transformation: the artivator. The programme is
conceived as a long-term endeavour with the mission to be engaging
continuously with civil society not only through dialogue and active
participation, but also through the (re)localisation of those processes of
symbolic identification on the side of the modules' and residencies'
participants, in Biella as well as in their own original social contexts
and groups.

UNIDEE - University of Ideas' educational programme of weekly modules at
Cittadellarte kicks off with its first year on May 4. Its programme for
2015 sets out to explore three broad concepts: temporality,
responsibility, participation. Analysed from a variety of angles
(artistic, historical, geographic, philosophical, political, economic,
anthropological, sociological, mediological, juridical, architectural,
etc.), these three key topics will be unravelled together by participants,
mentors and guests, through an exciting blend of formats spanning from the
theoretical to the performative. The modules will encompass experiments in
art history paradigms, activism, commons, prefigurative politics,
territorial transformation, museology, visual narratives, social imagery,
relational systems, new rituals, social cooking, urban space exploration,
ideas gathering (etc.).
