Artist and composer Ari Benjamin Meyers and Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art are looking for musicians / performers who play an instrument / thinkers who have a strong interest or background in music. Preferably applicants can play an instrument or read music, are open to singing, and generally interested in performance. A willingness to sing and move is essential. All instruments are welcome.
To apply: send a CV, a paragraph of motivation and links to previous work (if available) to [email protected] by Friday 30 June. If overseas please feel free to submit your application including a video recording. Audition dates will be scheduled thereafter.
During the auditions applicants are invited to present a short solo or solo performance of their choice. Availability for the rehearsal and exhibition period, spanning December 2017 - February 2018, is mandatory. The Kunsthalle for Music ensemble members will be remunerated for rehearsal and exhibition performances.
The Kunsthalle for Music is commissioned by Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art (Rotterdam) together with Spring Workshop (Hong Kong). An exposition, not an exhibition by Ari Benjamin Meyers unfolded the Kunsthalle’s foundational themes at Spring Workshop (11 March - 1 April, 2017), followed by the symposium Music Is Not! at Witte de With (26 - 27 May, 2017) and punctuated by an inaugural exhibition, featuring a series of new commissions also at Witte de With (Opening 25 January, 2018).
