<h1>International Open Call for Residencies</h1>
<p class="bodytext">KUNSTrePUBLIK is happy to announce its
first OPEN CALL for residencies at ZKU (Zentrum fuer Kunst
und Urbanistik / Center for Art and Urbanistics) in Berlin.
</p>
<p class="bodytext">The call is directed at artists, scholars
and practitioners (curators, activists, autodidacts etc.)
interested in cross-disciplinary theory and practice dealing
with the city. </p>
<p class="bodytext"><font class="Apple-style-span"
face="Helvetica"><span class="Apple-style-span"
style="background-color: transparent;">ZKU was founded
by several artists from the Berlin-based artists‘
collective KUNSTrePUBLIK, offering residencies for
artistic practice at the interface of urban research.
Following a three year process of negotiations and
reconstructions, and with a lot of support from friends
and colleagues (Thanks!), the ZKU will open its doors
for residents in June 2012. Located in a former railway
depot surrounded by a newly landscaped public park, ZKU
seeks to develop projects, co-produce knowledge and
share values created through exchange. The site has been
established through a longterm lease allowing
independent research, programming and production. ZKU
focuses on the processes that come from, and feed into,
the particular contexts of its residents' practice,
whether they be locally-defined situations or
international discourses. </span></font></p>

<h1>Open Call des ZKU</h1>
<p class="bodytext"> KUNSTrePUBLIK freut sich nach über 3
Jahren Planung, Verhandlungen, Umbaumaßnahmen und Dank der
Hilfe von Freunden und Unterstützern den ersten Open Call
des ZKU (Zentrum für Kunst und Urbanistik) im ehemaligen
Güterbahnhof Berlin-Moabit bekannt geben zu können. </p>
<p class="bodytext">Der Open Call richtet sich an Künstler,
Wissenschaftler, Kuratoren und Aktivisten, die ein Interesse
an gemeinschaftlicher, disziplinübergreifender Praxis und
Theorie haben und diese erproben wollen.<br>
Gegründet durch Teile des Künstlerkollektivs KUNSTrePUBLIK
ist das ZKU ein neues, unabhängiges Denklabor und
Produktionsstandort. In umfangreichen Umbauarbeiten
entstehen hier 13 Atelierwohnungen für Künstler und
Wissenschaftler, Veranstaltungs- und Lagerflächen, sowie ein
überdachter Bahnsteig für verschiedenste Aktivitäten. Ab dem
kommenden Sommer werden neben Symposien, Workshops,
Konferenzen, Konzerten und Ausstellungsprojekten
experimentelle Formate für unterschiedlichste
Öffentlichkeiten erprobt. Das ZKU versteht sich als
kollektives Labor: Statt eines Masterplans steht der Prozess
und eine sich fortwährend neudefinierende Programmatik
zwischen lokal verorteter Praxis und internationalen
Diskursen im Vordergrund.<br>
Das ZKU ist umgeben von einem neu designten, öffentlichen
Park mit Gemeinschaftsgärten. Der schicken Anmutung dieser
neuen Parklandschaft setzt das ZKU seinen unfertigen
Graffiticharme entgegen. Über einen langfristigen
Pachtvertrag für kulturelle, gemeinnützige Zwecke ist das
ZKU unabhängig und wird sich erlauben kritisch die Belange
von Stadt und Kunst zu hinterfragen. </p>
