Are you an artist or a creative practitioner who is concerned with the cultural impact of the ecological emergency? Do you make work that centres on environmental and social concerns? Would you like to develop a deeper artistic engagement with these inevitably entangled key concerns?
The BCA Summer Academy is a new initiative, placing ecoliteracy and agency for ecosocial justice in the context of Ireland and beyond at the centre of an immersive three-week program. Weekly lectures and discussions will guide the trajectory of the programme with participants co-creating the necessary discursive space to foster a supportive community of peer exchange and enquiry.
Focusing on the studio, immersion in the protected limestone karst landscape of the Burren and collective activities, the Summer Academy combines artistic practice with seminars and workshops aimed at expanding creative discourse on how to best respond to the unprecedented and urgent challenges we all face.
The Summer Academy offers participants large scale studio spaces on the BCA campus in which to develop research and produce new work. Visiting Artist lectures and seminars take place each week alongside studio visits by Summer Academy Lecturers. Workshops include, but are not limited to, Walking, Collaboration & Foraging. Fieldtrips will also involve key BCA partners Burren Beo and the Burren GeoPark, who manage stewardship of the Burren as a protected environment.
Applications due by April 30, 2021

Country:
Inmersión al mundo del arte de la performance desde nuestro entender la vida a partir del amOr Subversivo y los Cuidados eXtremos. Se iniciará un trabajo desde la cuerpa como espacio (de vida/primigenia). La cuerpa como espacio acogedor y/o inhóspito, como tierra, como hogar, como lugar. Es desde esta corporalidad (como espacio propio) que surge la sensibilidad y entendimiento de los demás espacios. En esta ocasión trabajaremos poniendo énfasis en la urbe y sus ritmos.
Se darán herramientas para desarrollar activaciones tanto unipersonales como en comunidad, entendiendo que el espacio que ocupamos/habitamos determina todos los demás espacios (cuerpas-lugares) y vice versa. Se trabaja a partir de ejercicios de escucha eXtrema identificando y reconstruyendo la memoria corporal como geografía político-afectiva. El reconocimiento de lx otrx y del ser en comunidad heterogénea se explora mediante la activación de los espacios múltiples internos/externos. La co-creación de intervenciones surgirá a partir de esta exploración de empoderamiento con nuestrxs cuerpxs, energías e imaginarios.
Inscripciones abiertas a partir del 6 de abril 2021

El arte de acción o performance es un acto/arte experiencial, vivo y mutante. En este encuentro sentiremos qué es el amor subversivo y los cuidados extremos, cuidarnos para ser cuidadxs y cuidadorxs. Crearemos una cuerpa de afectos, saberes y nuevas sensibilidades para conocernos, aceptarnos, subvertir los cánones impuestos y con ello ser cuerpxs rebeldes activadas hacia nuevos horizontes que ya se divisan.
El proceso creativo surge a partir de esta exploración de empoderamiento con nuestrxs cuerpxs, energías e imaginarios convocando formas alternas de conexión y relación. Mediante propuestas de exploración profundizaremos en nuestrxs seres para reaprenderlxs y revivirlxs desde otros ejes. Se trabajará a partir de ejercicios de escucha eXtrema identificando y reconstruyendo la memoria de la cuerpx como geografía político-afectiva. De esta manera nos insertaremos de una forma más vivencial a esta práctica viviente.
Se darán herramientas para desarrollar performance desde el objeto y el espacio. Se crearán performance colectivas e individuales, cuestionando esta dicotomía. Se utilizará la cámara como ente performático explorando los formatos de acción viva, foto performance y vídeo performance.
