Winter stations design competition 2018
Летом пляжи в окрестностях Торонто полны жизни, людей и веселья. Чего не скажешь про холодное время года. Организаторы предлагают исправить эту ситуацию и разработать арт-объекты и инсталляции на тему «Буйство», которые позволили бы открыть новые возможности использования пляжных территорий зимой. Основу для инсталляций составят металлические каркасы спасательных вышек. Конкурсанты не ограничены в размерах объекта, однако стоит помнить о том, что конструкции должны быть устойчивыми и безопасными. Лучшие проекты будут реализованы в феврале будущего года.
WinterStations 2018 theme: RIOT: violent disturbance; uproar; outburst of uncontrolled feelings; a large or varied display
The past year has been one of upheaval and continued uncertainty. Paradigms are shifting, lines of division appear to be drawn, perceptions skewed - it may feel we are losing sight of reality, or at least what we once considered normalcy. But century after century, from one era and generation to the next, what was once within the realm of fantasy and disbelief emerges to the surface proposing alternate, often conflicting realities and ways of going forward. And go forward we must!
This year's WinterStations theme, RIOT, is a call to artists and designers to act out. Your designs may be an active resistance expressed through a riot of colour, form and material. You may wish to speak to the political, cultural or environmental climate. You may rail against passive, placid art and design. You may, in a gesture of catharsis, unleash your inner turmoil. But please do remember, this exhibition is first and foremost a project to promote creativity and joy - basic, shared human qualities that bring us together and are needed now more than ever.
Given the success of the past year's re-use, repurpose, recycle initiative WinterStations continues to encourage proposals that evolve into future iterations, as on-going research and design projects and / or demonstrate an environmentally conscience post-exhibition lifecycle, including de-commissioning / removal.
There is no limit to the size of the installation, but please note that included in the jurors’ instructions will be durability and constructability. Installations cannot exceed the total cost outlined.
The jury may choose to pick up to ten proposals, in order of choice. The WinterStations team will review these proposals to determine constructability. From this list we are fundraising to build up to six installations.
Winning teams will be provided with an allowance for travel and accommodation to spend time in Toronto during the installation and the activities surrounding the opening,
The winning artists will be expected to provide a brief, 3 minute slide, video speaking presentation of the topic of their choice. February 19, 2018 at noon is the Beach openings where invited dignitaries will speak and the press will be present to interview artists and their works. These events provide opportunities for citizens of Toronto to engage directly with the designers. Members of the design team should expect to meet with media to discuss their designs and ideas.
This year, local design and art institutions will be represented by the University of Guelph, Ryerson University and the Ontario College of Art. with teams of students designing and fabricating installations for three stands.
