HMK Open Call for proposals 2013
Deadline:
Fri Jun 01, 2012 00:00
Location:
Hoorn,
Netherlands
Artist-run residency HMK {Hotel MariaKapel} invites artists to submit group-proposals for our 2013 residency programme.
About HMK
HMK {Hotel Mariakapel} is an artist-run residency and project space in Hoorn, a 15th century town by the IJsselmeer, just 40 km north of Amsterdam. In the old center of the town, in a medieval orphanage with a semi public inner garden and former Maria Chapel, HMK receives artist from all over the world.
The programme involves artists and curators working in a wide range of media, focusing on installation and context based work, video and performance art. Projects are developed both in the surroundings of Hoorn, public space and in the exhibition space. In 2012 HMK was kindly supported by several local and national foundations.
We offer:
A free stay at our residency to complete a period of work culminating in a final exhibition in the adjacent exhibition space.
Full and free use of all accommodation and living facilities (private room, wireless internet, shared kitchen, washing machine / dryer, basic tools, some audio & video equipment ). We can host 8 people in 4 bedrooms, with projects by larger groups and different residencies overlapping it is likely you'll be sharing a room
**
Please note: HMK aims to provide a budget to resident artists depending on individual projects, but strongly advises artists to secure additional funding elsewhere. In this budget we aim to offer a small artist fee, free use of the guesthouse and its facilities, possible reimbursement for travel costs and reimbursement of productioncosts.
HMK is responsible for all mail-outs and promotional activity in relation to the shows, which include regional, national and international contacts.
Residencies vary in length and depend on the nature of the work; we feel between one and two months is a good duration. The length of the residency is agreed in advance. The resulting exhibitions which are open to the public, usually take place for 3-4 weeks.
We are looking for:
Projects that make full use of the unique opportunities offered. The long stays at HMK lead to intensive local and international collaboration while developing new individual and/or group work for an exhibition or other presentation in HMK and/or in Hoorn. We are also keen on artistic projects that do not only focus on art itself but that, in content or practice, are able to step outside the box and make connections outside an art-context.
HMK focuses on collaborations and group-projects (between 3 and 6 artists); the nature of the collaboration is important to us. Preferably you work with artists or others with whom you haven't (extensively) worked with before.
Things to consider when applying:
We strongly advise you to read into the wider context of Hoorn and HMK prior to submitting a proposal. The context of HMK includes the geographical positioning; a small town setting (eg, absence of an University or a large local art scene/discourse); the combination of a locally rooted art-initiative with exhibitions of national appeal.
Proposals must focus mainly on content of the work and the process of working resulting in a presentation in our chapel/exhibition space, please do not propose to exhibit pre-existing work.
Projects must have a strong international component (i.e. cooperation with artists from different countries) We consider it to be an advantage when a group has one Dutch component, but this is not obligated.
Do not take this too literally, feel free to propose the unexpected, and be bold!
Please note: Sending in your applicationform can only be done by regular mail.
Who may apply:
Artists, as a group. We do not consider individual proposals.
Find the applicationform at our website.
(Proposals are only eligible when postmarked June 1st 2012 at the latest)

HMK is an artist-run residency and project space in Hoorn, a 16th century town by the IJsselmeer, just 40 km north of Amsterdam. In the old center of the town, in a mediaeval orphanage with adjacent inner garden and Maria Chapel, HMK receives artists from all over the world.
Hotel Mariakapel has grown from the ideal to create a concentrated work- and presentation place, where dialogue and collaboration inform experimental, context-based visual art projects. It was set up and is still run by a dedicated team of artists, assisted by local and international volunteers.
The programme involves artists working in a wide range of media, focusing on installation and context based work, video/film and performance art. Projects are developed both in public space and in the chapel’s exhibition space. Artists arrive on an individual basis or in groups, but the aim is always to create new work and during the process, gain from each other’s vision, questions and experience.

Projects are developed both in public space and in the exhibition space. In 2011 HMK is kindly supported by several local and national foundations.
We offer:
Residencies
For 2012 we have applications open for four group residencies for artists. We are looking for projects that make full use of the unique opportunities offered. The longer stay at HMK leads to intensive (international) collaboration while developing new individual/group work for an exhibition or other presentation in and/or around the chapel. We are also keen on projects that do not only focus on art itself but that, in content or practice, are able to step outside the borders of the art-context.
HMK {Hotel MariaKapel} focuses mainly on collaborations and group-projects (between 3 and 6 artists); the nature of the collaboration is important to us. Preferably you work with artists or others with whom you haven't (extensively) worked with before.
Proposals must focus mainly on content of the work and the process of working resulting in a presentation in our chapel/exhibition space, please do not propose to exhibit pre-existing work.
Projects must have a strong international component (i.e. cooperation with artists from different countries)
Research Residencies
For 2012 we have applications open for two research residencies.
1) Artist(s) with a special interest in public art and or artistic interventions in public space.
2) Designer(s) who work on their own initiative (without a commision of a third party) with a special interest in pushing the boundaries of function and/or the relation between art and design.
For both Research Residencies we are looking for individuals or duo's (no groups) who seek to spend time on research and development of their work through focusing on a self chosen research topic. We are, again, keen on projects that do not only focus on it's own topic or medium but that, in content or practice, are able to step outside the borders of their own context.
Things to consider when applying:
When sending in a proposal for an artistic project, please take in careful consideration the context of Hotel MariaKapel. The context of HMK includes the possibility to work with a group of artists; a small town setting (eg, absence of a big local art scene/discourse); the combination of a locally rooted initiative with exhibitions of national appeal. We strongly advise you to read into the wider context of HMK and Hoorn prior to submitting a proposal.
Accommodation and living facilities are provided for invited artists or artists groups to complete a period of work culminating in a final exhibition in the adjacent exhibition space, or a presentation.
For research residencies the facilities are the same, but the presentation will be at a location and in a form that suits the research best.
Residencies vary in length and depend on the nature of the work; we feel between one and two months is a good duration. The length of the residency is agreed in advance. The resulting exhibitions which are open to the public, usually take place for 3-4 weeks.
Research residencies also vary in length. Most suitable is 4-8weeks in a subsequent period, or spread out in different weeks over 4-5 months.
Please indicate in your research proposal your timeschedule and why this suits your research.
The residency includes use of all facilities (private room, wireless internet, shared kitchen, washing machine / dryer, basic tools, some audio & video equipment ). We can host 8 people in 4 bedrooms, with projects of larger groups and different residencies overlapping it is likely you'll be sharing a room.
HMK aims to provide a budget to resident artists depending on individual projects and researches, but advises artists to secure additional funding elsewhere. In this budget we aim to offer a small honorarium, free use of the guesthouse and its facilities, possible reimbursement for travel costs and reimbursement of materialcosts.
HMK is responsible for all mail-outs and promotional activity in relation to the shows, which include regional, national and international contacts.
