Open call for the PALIMPSEST project

 

Are you an artist, designer, architect and interested in sustainable landscape development? Do you want to share knowledge, take action and become a force of transformation in your chosen ecosystem? Become a creative change agent and submit your application to the open call for “Creative Dialogues” in the PALIMPSEST project until September 18, 2023. Participants can be both individuals and project teams.

 

PALIMPSEST is a research project funded by Horizon Europe under the New European Bauhaus program. It is implemented by an international consortium that includes entities from Italy, Spain and Poland, such as Politecnico di Milano and the Łódź Art Center foundation, the organizer of the Łódź Design Festival. Drawing on an ancient meaning (Gr. Παλίμψηστος means ‘again’ and ‘to scrape’) and taking the perspective of the three pilot locations where activities will be implemented, the project’s main role is to reshape urban landscapes by co-creating sustainable solutions that combine activity, heritage and local practices with art, design and architecture.

 

The open call for “Creative Dialogues” seeks creative agents – artists, designers, architects from across Europe – to take on the challenge of experimenting with new ways of responding to environmental problems in three selected landscapes: in Łódź (Poland), Jerez de la Frontera (Spain) and Milan (Italy).

 

Participants selected for the project will receive a grant of €10,000 to develop their ideas into prototypes. Realizations in each of the selected landscapes will be financed from additional project budgets.
