MOVE FORWARD: New Mexican-European Media Art
Start date: Dec 1, 2011,

The fundamental objective is the creation of multidisciplinary and cross-cultural collaborations in the field of digital arts that enable innovative forms of artistic expression for Mexican and European artists. This includes the fostering of intercultural dialogue through residencies involving collaborations with technical specialists, theorists and local artists and the establishment of larger audiences through the presentations of the works at major Mexican and European Media Art Festivals, incl. online presentations for an international (esp. younger) audience through the projects website and at public social media platforms ie youtube, facebook . Specialist exchanges and curatorial meetings will promote both the project and resident artists' work on the international media art scene. The exchange will invite applications from media artists resident in Europe and Mexico, facilitate 2 jury panels in Europe and in Mexico (once a year based at one of the partner organisations, with all continental partners curators), offer two-month research and production residencies for 1-2 artists at each partner organisation per year (16 altogether), Invite local artists to workshops / lectures by European and Mexican resident artists to foster colaborations and coproductions, enable the production of new art work as research outcome, between artist, host organisation and local artists to facilitate knowledge transfer and intercultural dialogue, engage with and disseminate to a wider public through a local presentation at the end of the residency (16 altogether) and presentations at European Media Art events ie Transmediale, Berlin, produce 2 larger exhibitions/festivals where artists and partners are invited: an interims exhibition 2012 in Halle (8 projects + guests) and a final exhibition in Mexico (16 projects + guest present.), produce and distribute Website and Catalogues of the two exhibitions and promote involved artists to art institutions, critics and curators.
