Open Call Agora Experiments / East Centric Architecture Triennale 2016

How do recent experimental interventions in public space challenge the current social, economic, cultural and urbanistic problems of the built environment? Can we expose and analyse the connections between them?

Arhitext Design Foundation - the producers and promoters of the East Centric Architecture Triennale launches the Agora Experiments Open Call, the last open call of the 2016 edition of the triennale.

We invite architects, artists and professionals in related fields who create experimental interventions in public space to participate in the Agora Experiments - collateral project of the Triennale by submitting their projects and experiences to the open call. The aim is to facilitate a much needed space of gathering and discussion upon a wide range of recent projects which address, research and test possible solutions for re-activating the public spaces by means of participatory art and architecture installations / structures. Applications to the Open Call are awaited until June, 20th.

The entries selected at the open call will be part of the Agora Experiments series of events: an online exhibition, a series of conferences and debates as well as interactions in-between online and offline. All Agora Experiments are intertwined with and connecting to the three main modules of the 2016 Triennale (Critical Discourses, Drifting Architecture – main exhibition – and East Centric Arhitext Awards).

The open-call has two sections:
Experiments: - Addresses and promotes projects created by architects and artists involved in re-thinking and activating the urban public space by means of experimental installations / structures / urban designs;
Experiences: - Discovers and underlines the cultural and social challenges and issues identified and tackled by creators as part of their process of addressing new ways of shaping the urban public space by means of experimental projects.

Eligibility and Registration
To participation in the first section of the open-call each architect / artist/ interdisciplinary team based and working in Central and Eastern Europe must register one to four projects of experimental architecture.
The second section of the open-call is complementary and optional - for those who registered projects for the first section, opens the possibility of participating as guests to one of the two “debates in process” scheduled within the Triennale. To register for this section a mini-interview must be completed based on the experience gained during the realization of one of the projects registered in the first section (at the choice of each participant).
