Call for proposals
Micro-residencies at the HALTE
August 30, 2023 - September 29, 2023
► 2 residencies of 2 days are offered.
Only files sent in digital form will be considered - total file size 15 MB maximum.
DARE-DARE invites you to live a very brief research experience in October 2023. We are making the center's library available to you to browse in any way you wish, in order to extract elements or combinations that are significant, exciting, contradictory or intuitive over a two-day period in October 2023.
The two-day period is adjustable (consecutive or not). Please note that the schedule for this edition of micro-residencies determines two distinct work locations. Research carried out before October 15 will take place in the public space, at La HALTE (Pavillon de référence et de réflexion sur l'art dans l'espace public). Alternatively, research taking place after October 15 will be carried out in the DARE-DARE offices, where the collection will be moved during La HALTE's seasonal closure.
After a period of reflection, your residency will culminate in the creation of a collective reading activity, reinvented in the light of your discoveries and research practices. We believe that creating unique links between books in a relatively spontaneous way will enable us to offer unifying experiences that question our relationship with reading, archives and exchange. We are therefore looking for profiles capable of creating unique links through our works. You are welcome to combine this activity with culinary and/or performative elements to enrich the experience, if desired.
DARE-DARE invites people who wish to explore and experiment with new crossroads of research.
