有15年品牌歷史的亞太傳統藝術節,今(2016)年特以「無物不成偶-傳統偶戲藝術的當代碰撞」為年度主題,並自即日起對外徵集藝術家駐村,為亞太傳統藝術節的藝術交流、分享與創作帶來另一波焦點對話。
國立傳統藝術中心為積極提昇2016亞太傳統藝術節國際交流與創作分享的高度與亮點,今年辦理方向將由原來為觀眾服務的演出推廣節目,轉而為促進藝術交流分享的累進式藝術節慶,同步發展「人才培育」、「在地連結」、「國際交流」與「作品研發」等主軸。因此傳藝中心特別與承辦單位「無獨有偶工作室劇團」規劃辦理「藝駐蘭陽-駐村藝術家計畫」,以開發偶戲的多元發展為目標,指定主題為「偶戲藝術之傳統x當代•交融->展望」,對外徵集對此主題有基礎、有想像、有動機的國內外藝術創作者,參與此計畫。
該計畫將透過駐村創作平台機制,媒合傳統與當代偶戲工作者,或有意結合偶戲領域之創作者於同時期進駐「利澤國際偶戲藝術村」,並積極安排「藝術顧問」、「技術顧問」,及邀集劇場製作與整合經驗豐富、曾執行過結合傳統與現代製作的導演為「指導觀察員」,帶領臺灣在地藝術工作者與國際藝術家共同生活、合作、分享、創作,以開啟更多藝術合作契機與對話空間。該計畫駐村時間為2016年11月1日~12月15日共計六週,駐地時間至少需達30天以上。
「藝駐蘭陽-駐村藝術家計畫」預計自即日起至8月30日止對外展開徵件,並開放國際藝術家報名,歡迎有興趣的藝術領域工作者報名參加。詳情請洽03-9501977吳小姐,或至2016亞太傳統藝術節臉書粉絲頁、國立傳統藝術中心官網下載簡章與申請表。
