What are the Barcelona Crea – Creation Factories Scholarships?
the Barcelona Crea Scholarships – Creation Factories are an initiative of the Network of Creation Factories, with the support of the Institute of Culture, to support the pre-production processes that accompany the creation of artistic proposals: conceptualization, conception, research, experimentation, documentation and essay. With these grants, we want to contribute to maintaining the city’s cultural momentum by offering resources to develop artistic research and innovation processes in the city.
From the Fundació Joan Brossa we have convened, together with the Institute of Culture, 3 Scholarships Barcelona Crea – Creation Factories in three different modalities:
Modality Dramaturgical writing Carme Montoriol
Modality Performative conference
Modality Asset activation
The aim of this initiative is to promote the research work – theoretical and practical – of artists who come from the performing, visual and textual arts and who are also linked to the city of Barcelona.
What does this call offer?
The aim is to offer time, space, financial resources, materials and support (of the team and of the direction/artistic coordination) to deepen the processes and work subjects, in a context that allows the maturation, evolution and maximum expression of the proposals presented.
It offers work space, a financial contribution, artistic accompaniment and monitoring during the work process and the opportunity to generate suitable contexts to share the research and creation processes and open them to external views.
The artistic monitoring will be carried out by the members of the jury: Tania Safura Adam, Marta Azparren, Albert arrives and the artistic direction of the Free Arts Center of the Joan Brossa Foundation, Georgina Olive i Maria Canelles.
