This call for applications seeks a Dutch creator-educator to undertake a residency in Madrid and be part of a contemporary creative arts project in partnership with CentroCentro Cibeles and with one or several state-funded and charter schools in the Madrid municipal area, to be selected by public competition.
The aim of "Levadura. Programme of residencies for creators in schools" is to introduce contemporary art concepts and methods into the education curriculum followed by primary school pupils, using participative activities and bringing them into direct contact with practising contemporary creative artists.
We are looking for innovative projects that understand that children can play an active role in their own education. We will not look into projects in which pupils only carry out manual work or that involve reinterpreting great works in the History of Art. Projects should demonstrate the processes behind contemporary creation and empower pupils and their teachers as cultural creators /...producers instead of giving them the role of a passive spectator.
This call for applications is open to all individuals - creators - currently in practice, with Dutch nationality or who are resident in Holland and their practice is based mainly in Holland, given that their track record provides evidence that this is the case.
