Delegate Opportunities
The National Experimental Arts Forum 2015 coincides with numerous cultural events occurring in Perth that may present delegates with further professional opportunities.
We encourage everyone to take advantage of the following:
Proximity Festival
Development LAB, 5-16 October
Performance Season, 28 October – 9 November
Now in it’s fourth-year, Proximity Festival will take over the Art Gallery of WA, with intimate one-on-one performances embedded into daily happenings of Perth’s oldest institutional gallery.. Proximity is a highly intensive experience geared towards artists interested in creating participatory performance for an audience of one. Prior to the performance season, curated artists / groups attend a two-week LAB on making participatory performance at the venue. Facilitated by the curators and UK-based artist/ director Helen Cole of In Between Time, the LAB aims to encourage artists to step beyond their artform comfort zones and provide a space for skill sharing and experimentation.
This year the first two days of the LAB will be committed to NEAF, to which Proximity artists will be granted free registration.
They are currently receiving applications for new one-on-one work for inclusion in the 2015 program (closes 15th May).
