Конкурс проводится бельгийской организацией Leiedal, которая занимается вопросами социально-экономического и пространственного развития тринадцати городов и муниципалитетов на юго-западе Фландрии. Цель – создать крупномасштабный художественный маршрут, который объединит все эти «точки на карте» в единое пространство с помощью ряда вмешательств на стыке искусства, дизайна, архитектуры и ландшафта. Лучшие проекты планируется реализовать уже в будущем году.
пресс-релиз:
2020 marks the 60th anniversary of Intercommunale Leiedal, which we wish to celebrate by highlighting in a unique way the space and landscape we are active in - the territories of the 13 cities and municipalities in South-West-Flanders. The aim is to allow both residents and visitors to discover the region through a new lens by means of a number of artistic interventions at the intersection between art, design, architecture and landscape. Land art tailored to the location(s).
With Contrei Live, Leiedal aims to achieve a large-scale art trail establishing the link between spatial developments, water, and (international) art. From June to October 2020, this journey along a series of land art interventions will mobilise a broad audience, supported by targeted campaigns (culture, tourism, regional marketing, etc.). By highlighting the landscape and water, the art trail enhances the spatial transition of South-West-Flanders. It highlights the region’s landscape in an extraordinary manner, using water as the guiding principle. The project seeks to amaze and create connections between locations, between generations, between art and landscape, between dream and action.
However, this artistic voyage of discovery is part of a broader picture. Under the motto to think, do, and dance; Leidal is joining forces with a range of partners for an anniversary year centred around ‘collaborating on a region in transition’.
