Piksel20
November 19-22 2020
Bergen, Norway


Dear friends,

this year the Piksel Festival has been waiting to the last minute to
release the open call in the hope the Covid rules would relax a bit,
mainly regarding the obligation to quarantine artists at arrival in
Bergen.

As the festival is approaching, we finally decided to do a double open
call.

One is for artists travelling from non quarantine countries who can
travel to Bergen. Please check here if your country is in a yellow
colour:

We are aware that the map can change in the next months.

The other one is for artists (who can not travel to Bergen) whose
artworks can be presented either virtually/online (Mozilla Hubs,
PikselSavers, online concerts, presentations and workshops) or
physically at the exhibition where the Piksel technical team will
follow the artists instructions to setup the works.

Adding to the open call, Piksel also invites 1 international artist
collective, a "cohort", from 1 to 3 people, to pass the quarantine time
(10 days) together in a residency/house in Bergen. During the
quarantine, the artist collective Q10 will develop workshops, artworks
and installations or performances. They will be presenting the results
over the 10 days through online digital media and window display
screens. Once the quarantine time is over, these artists will be able
to participate at the Piksel Festival concerts and exhibition with all
the health guarantees in place. The QUARANTINE 10 project aims to bring
the people together on this dystopian ”new normality”.

Please feel free to submit your projects to anyone of the open tracks:
Presentations, workshops, concerts, installations and the Q10project.

We apologize for the short time to present the applications. Deadline
10th of October. Please use the online submit form at:
