Emscher Kunst Triennale 2013

Call for Application
Sixty students working in nine cross-disciplinary and transnational groups will develop proposals for a permanently sited public artwork as part of the Emscher Kunst Triennale 2013. Working collaboratively in your cross-disciplinary groups you are asked to respond creatively to the designated site. You are asked to reflect upon this unique context and to design a place for human interaction/contemplation. This should be a specially designed site-specific structure that is situated somewhere along the green belt area that incorporates steel as the main material.
The assessment will be done via an exhibition and a formal presentation to a selection committee: at the end of the assessment, at least one proposal will be selected to be fully realized.
