PRAXIS RESIDENCY - OPEN CALL - 23.1.-12.2.2023

Introduction to PRAXIS

PRAXIS Oslo is a laboratory for the study of dance and movement. We offer movement classes, workshops and meeting spaces for artists in the field of dance. PRAXIS Oslo is a non-profit organisation created by freelance artists for freelance artists, that grew out of a need to gather and share knowledge of artistic practices in the performing arts community; specifically in the field of experimental dance and performance.

Description of the Residency

Celebrating our 10th anniversary in 2023 and the opening of our new studio, we want to offer four residencies between March and June to different artists or artist groups. The residency program is open for all professional artists working within contemporary dance. We invite proposals from performance projects to research or artistic practice development.

The residencies include one week, Monday to Friday from 12:00-17:00, of free workspace in PRAXIS Oslo’s 100 sqm studio space in Rosenhoff, ending with an open sharing on the last day. The sharing can be, for example, a work-in-progress sharing, open rehearsal, demo performance or talk depending on the format of the project. Fees, accommodation or travel costs are not included in the residency.

In your application, we ask you to describe your project, your artistic interests and motivation as well as which week you would prefer. The project description should also include a proposal for the format of the open sharing.

The planned residency weeks are:

March - Week 13

April - Week 17

May - Week 21

June - Week 26
